About this property
This traditional Lake District inn is set in the quiet village of Far Sawrey. Just 1 mile from Lake Windemere, and surrounded by wildlife and countryside that inspired Beatrix Potter on nearby Hill Top Farm, this hotel offers cozy, refurbished accommodations, hearty food, local ales, and open fires. The bright and refurbished rooms all boast a modern bathroom with a power shower and a deep bath. Guests can relax with a flat-screen TV and a comfortable super king-size bed. The Inn offers a buffet of cereals, juices and yogurts followed by a cooked breakfast of your choice, ranging from a full hearty Cumbrian breakfast or a lighter smoked haddock with poached eggs. Seasonal, locally sourced food is freshly-cooked and served with locally brewed ales, all in front of a real fire. The beautiful countryside of the Lake District is on the hotel doorstep, with guests, their families and pets all able to enjoy walking and cycling through the area.
