Large unpretentious pub in centre of Gosforth village, with food and accommodation mainly used by weekly Sellafield contractors
Gosforth is a nice large village with a good local bakery, a church with a Viking Cross and 4 real ale pubs in total. Local Tourist attractions and a short drive in several different directions and include Wasdale Head, Wastwater, Great Gable, Sca Fell, Muncaster Castle, Ravenglass and Eskdale steam railway (9 miles into the most lovely valley), Seaside at Seascale, St Bees and Ravenglass, Ravenglass nature reserve, the spectacular Cumbrian coastal railway, and lots and lots of lovely walks, some gentle and some strenuous! There is a strong art and craft tradition in the area and the outlets are worth seeking out. There are campsites in the area and plenty of pub, hotel and B&B accommodations.
