The staff here are excellent, always warm, friendly and welcoming, and the food is fantastic, the best chocolate brownie I've ha in a long time! The only let down ever is our score in the quiz - Kerry, the quizmistress, must take great delight in watching our pained faces as we try to think! Seriously though, this place is wonderful... More

We dined twice on our recent break to the lakes. We really enjoyed the experience being warmly welcomed, having a good range of ales , relaxed efficient service ( despite being busy ) and excellent superior pub grub. I would strongly recommend the hot pot and the haddock. On our second night it was very busy and we ended up... More

Booked in advance which appeared essential as fully booked on Quiz night. Sat near kitchen door which possibly lacked a bit of atmosphere compared with the main pub but chat and good food soon solved that . wonderful salmon/ crayfish mousse starter and black pudding gateau starter. Vegetarian sweet potato bake looked fantastic and Lancashire hotpot declared the best ever.... More

we've eaten here quite a few times now and they never fail to deliver. The service is always very friendly, the food is first class and the beer and wine excellent. You'd be daft to drive past and not give this Lakeland pub a try!

Eight of us sat down for a slap up birthday celebration. We all had eaten here before and were looking forward to the evening and the food. The menu was hard going with so many choices and good options. Everyone was unanimous, all the different choices were deemed excellent. Groaning tummies resulted in no-one managing a sweet. What a great... More

From arrival we were well looked after and shown to our room, delighted with room & ensuite both very well appointed with good fixtures and fittings including a lovely freestanding bath, views from both windows in the room were outstanding all adding...

We'd researched some places to go when visiting the Lake District and this was one of them- thanks to many reviewers on Trip Advisor. Our sat nav took us way off course, about 6 miles away- which doesn't sound much but along those country lanes and hills and when you are hungry, it is! When we found The Hare and... More

This was our second visit to the Hare and Hounds again we had a fantastic meal. We had our meals from the mothers day menu and the quality of food was exeptional. The meal was great value for money and the staff are brilliant. We were always a regular at the Masons Arms down the road until the service went... More

My husband and I have eaten here a few times as we have stayed at this immense B&B previously. Today we drove up from Halifax for Sunday lunch. I had the roast beef with all the trimmings and my husband had the lamb hot pot. Both truly scrumptious. We had starters and I had a pudding (as my eyes are... More
