| Of the 7 or so pubs between Kirkstone and Glenridding, this has to be the best by some margin. Airy yet warm, comfy yet sturdy furniture, 4 ales at all times, an excellent selection of malts, dog friendly (the landlord gets annoyed if not controlled properly and quite right too), great views. Staff are decent, service was fine. Definitely recommended. Igwinder - 16 Dec 2013 16:15 |
| stayed on the campsite this weekend. went in for a drink on fri and sat night , on both evenings the 4 handpulled ales were on good form. jennings ale barngates gold, hobgobblin and the local tirrel acadamy.the place was very busy with people who were staying in the hotel ,campsite or the bunkhouse barn all talking about thier days walk. the food looked good although we didnt eat . i would deffintly would recomend a visit . i suppose the biggest attraction is the view from the rear beer garden stunning to say the least loiner8 - 17 Oct 2010 22:22 |
| This is quite decent if you're passing, but it isn't particularly special (compared to the Kirkstone Pass Inn about 2 miles up the road). HenPen - 26 Sep 2009 19:17 |
| On my visit I found this to be a very attractive pub, shrouded in low mist due to the lakeland weather. The real ale on offer was Tirrels 1823 (very nice) and Everards Beacon. The pub is very clean inside with lots of walking/hiking props in the roof space. It wasn't the kind of place I would make a detour for but on the plus side, its beer was well kept and the South African behind the bar was a friendly chap. Nice looking pub, with a nice wood burning stove ensuring a warm welcome. Worth a stop if you are passing. SouthYorkshireman - 27 May 2009 23:56 |
| With the stunning backdrop of the Kirkstone pass this pub is the perfect place for a post walk pint on the terrace (if fine) or in the bar with it's big picture windows (if wet). Also has accomodation and a camp site. There are 4 handpumps in operation serving Jennings ales and 2 guests. Cumberland ale was particularly good when I visited. Evening Meals are pretty good basic fayre but the breakfast they serve is simply wonderful and worth a detour before heading off to the hills in the morning. The only thing which mars the enjoyment slightly is the constant stream of bikers racing past. The Kirkstone pass seems to have been adopted by the Babyboomer Motorcycle Prats Fraternity (BMPF) as an impromptu racecourse for their noisemaking deathtraps. Jay28 - 12 May 2008 10:54 |
