Take the Walna Scar road up from Coniston village, or down from Coniston Old Man, to visit this 16th-centruy pub and hotel. The deliberately unmodernised dual-level bar has atmosphere and character, with slate flooring, exposed beams and stone walls, heated by a large open range. The slate-topped bar offers up to eight cask ales, mostly from local brewers. The conservatory and terrace complete the picture, with delightful views over the garden. Dogs not allowed in conservatory. (Winter opening hours vary.)

Donald Campbell stayed here in what is now Bedroom No. 2 (the family room).
