8/10 Very good
Karen
Oct 12, 2026Lovely place with lots of character situated in a pretty village in the North Lakes. Ideal for exploring Lowther Castle and Gardens and for walking the surrounding fells. The room was spacious and very comfortable - especially the large 4 poster bed. Dog friendly too. Lindsay, who organised and served breakfast, was excellent - friendly and interested in us. The room was a bit cold but, to be fair, we didn't raise this. Good ambiance in the bar on an evening. We would stay again and recommend it to others. Thank you for a lovely stay.

Jul 17, 2026Village pub in the lovely village of Askham. Comfortable room, really good breakfast and brilliantly positioned to walk straight out into the fells around Ullswater.

Oct 2, 2025Only stayed one night, couldn’t get a drink at bar as was after 10 when the bar closes, seemed a bit petty given we were residents. Breakfast was good and room facilities great.
