The Muddy Boot Pub

Tucked within the heart of our hotel, The Muddy Boot is your countryside local, including traditional oak panelling and roaring log fire. Whether you’re popping in after a day of adventure, are passing through while on the ‘West Windermere Way’ walk, or settling in for a leisurely evening, our small, cosy pub is the perfect place to unwind, share stories, and enjoy the simple things in life, pint in hand.

Your round?

Ask about our ‘Lakeside Beer’. Brewed in partnership with Farm Yard Brew Co, our Lakeside Ale is always on tap. If you prefer traditional pints, pinot, or are more partial to an aperol, there’s always something worth raising a glass to. Cheers!

Tasty bar snacks

Like every great local, pick up some nibbles to keep you going until dinner. Grab some nuts or crisps and share with friends while looking out over the lake.

See you at the bar...
