This charming inn is located in the peaceful village of Far Sawrey. The inn is situated less than 2 km away from the magnificent Lake Windermere. Surrounded by wildlife and rolling countryside, this establishment lies close to Hill Top Farm, which inspired Beatrix Potter. This wonderful establishment immerses visitors in the rich beauty and splendour of this mesmerising area. The inn enjoys a traditional design, exuding rustic elegance. The guest rooms are classically designed, offering a comfortable setting in which to completely escape the bustle of daily life. Guests can enjoy hearty, traditional food, local ales and relaxing open fires, for a truly invigorating, rejuvenating experience, seemingly miles away from the rest of the world.
