Whether you relax in our dining room or in warmer weather on the terrace and gardens you can enjoy the stunning surroundings of the Langdale Valley while you indulge in delicious homemade cakes and freshly baked scones served with clotted cream and strawberry jam. All of which are served along side a selection of sandwiches and choice of hot beverages.

Walking is the number one activity here and there is no better place in the U.K. The Langdales offer the most superb walks and the surrounding beauty is awesome.
