Reviews in Cumbria and Lake District

a very nice and modern pub with terrific bar staff to make you feel warm and welcome.

Visited the herdwick one Sunday to find they did an all day carvery, four chooses of meat with loads of veg, the lady carving was very generous with the portions of meat and then you helped your self to as many veg and potatoes as you wanted great value for money. will definitely be going back.

Very comfortable and stylish. Great ambiance and a variety of fresh, inventive food. One of my favourite places in Penrith, well worth a visit.

Very nice and quick service, and always busy! Recommend to anyone. Always specials on aside a great tasty menu. Bar staff are great and the weekend waitresses are easy on the eye, two in particular! Just go and experience it, you won't be disappointed!

Well modernised pub in wonderful coastal location. Non-smoking bar, good food, including soup in a bun and real ales with cafe bar coffee aroma around the place. New hostel barn for walkers, cyclists and hangovers. Good atmosphere for outdoor types.

I used to work here in the summer of '85 and loved every minute of it. Raymondo & Virginia were a pleasure to work for!! The head chef Pino was a quality operator who could cook to a high standard. Great menu with plenty of choices of meat & fish, pizzas to die for and traditional pasta in abundance. Bravo!!

Simply put, one of the most memorable dinners we have had in the Lakes, better than many that profess to be outstanding with their cuisine. Clean, very well presented food, the steamed chocolate & pistachio budino, honeycomb, vanilla ice-cream dessert is a must and all food lovers should give this restaurant a try, you will not be disappointed......Enjoy.

i loved the food and the service was outstanding

fantastico babie

We went to a wonderful wedding here last weekend. The hotel is perched on the waters edge of Windermere. The period decor and furniture match the elegance of the building. The cuisine has won rosettes and my room has awesome views of the lake.

The new owners are really making a go of this pub/restaurant they now have a fine selection of wines, real ale and food which is mostly locally sourced. Since Chris and Karen moved to the pub in August the food has improved immensely.

Our party enjoyed a first class evening at Gilpin Lodge. The food was as you would expect from a Michelin starred venue. Service was very professional and knowledgeable. Finally we loved the venue with its different dining rooms and upmarket feel. Highly recommended!
