A delightful 500 year old coaching inn, in a wonderful setting, with loads of atmosphere and comfort, it's now an up-market hotel, but one where non-residents and non-diners are very welcome. Polished walls, with antique chairs and settles; carpeted corridors and luxurious 'loos'; one might prefer to take afternoon tea in one of the comfortable lounges instead of a pint in the cosy and atmospheric bar! Well-behaved dogs are warmly welcomed in the bar and in some of the lounges and bedrooms.
Two star - A pub interior of very special national historic interest
Listed status: II
It is divided into two parts by a wide, shallow arch. The layout comprises a relatively small area in front of the counter and, behind the arch, a somewhat larger space for drinkers and diners. Positioned within the north side of the arch is a wondrously old gas fire. Old panelling abounds and the whole place would have been recognisable to Lakeland tourists of past generations. A two-part glazed hatch inscribed ‘Waiters Only’ can be found in the side passage, along with two old glazed panels. A major refurbishment of the hotel was completed in 2022 which included the creation of a new bar area to the right of the entrance. The old bar remains fully equipped for service but only comes into use at busy periods; however, you're still welcome to sit in this marvellous space.
This Pub serves no changing beers and 2 regular beers.
