Fantastic Staff, Fantastic Pub
Look this place is everything you need in a lake district inn. Warm fires, excellent food and some genuinely outstanding beer. The staff were amazing with us and I cannot compliment the bar staff or chefs enough. Would go back tomorrow would give it 6/5 it it were possible to rate it that highly

After a soaking on my motorbike I was welcomed with a warm smile & an offer of drying out my motorbike gear overnight. A warm cosy restaurant served delicious food & a much needed cold beer couldn’t ask for more

Good evening meal, good breakfast just needed to cook the bacon & especially the sausages more (we specially asked for well done bacon & sausages) & keep the baked beans hot not lukewarm which spoiled the meal. Room very small & compact & beware of the very large wooden beam which is very low in the middle of the room. Would definitely eat a lunch/dinner meal again when passing.
