Had such a lovely stay in The Horse & Farrier Inn. Rooms were small but clean and had all the facilites needed. Food at both dinner and breakfast was delicious. Location is great, only a short drive into Keswick, with beautiful views of the mountains. Staff were really friendly and helpful. Will definitely return.

Could do better
Disappointed with breakfast especially for my partner who is coeliac and has to have gluten free food. Room was comfortable and nicely decorated but little things like a very rusty bin in the bathroom spoil the effect.

Perfect Lake District Stopover
Cosy pub/ restaurant/ hotel in a stunning Lake District spot. Sunday lunch was extremely tasty, served by very attentive staff. Our room, the Blencathra suite, was a perfect fit for our family. Spotlessly clean, super comfortable bed, which made for great nights sleep.

Not my cup of tea
Pretty average stay with unfriendly staff and varying levels of food - some good some average. Of note was the scrambled egg on toast which was minuscule. Bedrooms were clean, shower was powerful and hot. Walls had peeling paint and general areas of the hotel were grotty in places. Wouldn’t stay again.

A great wee spot to stay in the Lake District. Our room was quiet and the king sized bed very comfortable. The food was good and the staff were very friendly and helpful. Parking was easy and it’s only a short walk through the village to get onto the old railway tracks walk which takes you into Keswick, 5km away. We will be back😊

Lovely big bed in the main bedroom but we couldn't sleep because of the constant noise of the air conditioning unit for the pub. Fortunately, it couldn't be heard in the second bedroom, so we moved into that. The stairs were steep, narrow and winding, which could be an issue for anyone with a mobility problem.
