“A charming Lake District inn set in a quiet village with walking and cycling opportunities aplenty. Cottagey rooms are simple and traditional and most offer lovely views. The pub is a popular spot with a selection of good ales and elevated pub fare — ideal to return to after a day outdoors.”

Kirkstile Inn

A 17th-century Lakeland inn, away from the honeypots, with a deserved reputation for its food, own-brew ales and genuine welcome. Comfortable, cottage-style bedrooms are just the ticket after a day’s walking or cycling.
