The Wasdale Head Inn is the closest pub to us and is approximately a mile and a half away. Great place to go for food if you don't want to cook or go for a well deserved drink after climbing Scafell Pike. The pub is dog friendly.

Woodlands Tearooms is about a 20-25 minute drive down to Santon Bridge. Can highly recommend both the breakfast and the afternoon tea (the afternoon tea must be prebooked). You can also pick up any Lake District themed gifts/souvenirs from the gift shop next door.

여행 팁

교통편

Having your own car is highly recommended.

Due to our remote location we are not easily accessible by public transport. If you want to travel around the Western Lake District a car really is a necessity.
준비물

Bringing food with you is recommended

We are not close to any supermarkets so I'd advise bringing all the groceries you need with you. Asda, Tesco and Morrisons will all deliver here so that is another option.
