“Stepping into this inn felt like a journey back in time, a truly traditional atmosphere that welcomed weary hikers with open arms, and the apartments themselves are wonderfully well-equipped, making them a comfortable base. The location truly shines for anyone looking to explore the surrounding fells, with Scafell Pike directly accessible, and the staff's local knowledge proved invaluable for navigating the trails. It's a place where good food, a convivial pub, and genuine hospitality converge, creating a grounded and deeply satisfying experience for those drawn to the wilder side of the Lakes.”
