The Langstrath Country Inn

Absolutely fantastic little hidden gem. The most amazing roast dinner. Roast lamb was perfect. The staff were very friendly, nothing was too much trouble for them and they gave a very warm welcome. Wish we could find something like this nearer to home. Wish I could give it a 6 out of 5. Thanks for the experience!

We grabbed a meal here after a good day out on the fells. Great place and nice welcome, but the food was underwhelming. Still a good place for a beer though..

Stopped here for lunch after a very wet walk. Barman was very good, took our order from the table for drinks and food. Food was fantastic, we were sceptical as the price was high for pub food, but was more than worth it when it came out. Beef and Ale pie was packed full, more than we could finish off. Would most certainly come back again.

Great pub lunch. Steak and ale pie was excellent, plenty steak. Chips were class. Clean and tidy, nice staff. Alcohol free available too.

We were a large party and they accommodated us for dinner at late notice. We sat in the restaurant section rather than han to be bar. The food was really good. Decent portions and the service was excellent. The desserts were lovely too, especially the apple crumble with custard and ice cream. It's a lovely quaint place surrounded by stunning scenery. I would definitely recommend this place. We didn't stay overnight so cannot comment on accommodations.

The staff here need a raise! Excellent hospitality, personal service and the food and drinks are great. What a little gem!|Bar staff in particular were outstanding when we were tired and wet after a long hike! |Next time we want to try the restaurant. Looks great and reasonably priced.

We were given room 10 on the third floor, a dormer in the roof space. The room was large, comfortable and clean as was the bathroom which had a bath and separate walk in shower. Tea and biscuits were in the room with a kettle. Beds were firm, but comfortable.|Downstairs there is a decent bar with 3 real ales, and a dining room with great views. Beer prices were high, £6 a pint. I guess they "make hay while the sun shines." At least it was a decent pint. |Food was disappointing. Restaurant prices (£22 scampi and chips) were not justified by the quality of the food and their hand cut chips were a disappointment. Portions were generous, but £10-12 for a starter was expensive for pub grub. Breakfasts were good. |All the staff were friendly and helpful. Stonethwaite is a great location for walkers, walk to Keswick on the west of the lake and get a bus back, or for the more adventurous walk south to Grasmere.

Party of 5. Food was okay, nothing exciting. We all thought it was very expensive. Especially a bottle of zero alcohol beer at £5 each !!!! I wouldn't rush back to be honest, although not a lot of choice in that area. Posh spa hotel down the road has a restaurant with comparable prices which we will try next time. Gorgeous wee pub though, in a beautiful setting, and the staff were very attentive and friendly. Suppose they have the monopoly in that area.

We were booked into this hotel by the folks who arranged our C2C walkabout. Right on the walking track. Located on a working sheep farm (but what isn't in Borrowdale?), with superb dining room food for dinner and breakfast. Packed lunch is pricier (£7.25) than at other places we've stayed, but there is nothing else until Grasmere if you're on the walk. Comfortable rooms, without TV (but one is available in the lounge). Baths on the small side.

I was staying nearby at the Borrowdale Youth Hostel but had dinner here last week after a massive hike beginning with a dawn ascent of Scafell Pike. The food was simply superb. I had the black pudding salad and the slow roasted Lakeland lamb which was probably the best tasting lamb I have ever had - quite different in taste to most lamb (especially that here in the US). My son had some wonderful local shrimp and a good steak. The place is really a pub gone gastro and is very cosy and perfectly positioned at a dead end in a stunning Lakes valley. The beer selection was also excellent - 6 enticing and local cask ales including the rare but impressive Sneck Lifter as well as the local favorite Cumberland Ale and a very refreshing gold ale from Keswick Brewing. For beer and food in the Lakes I could not have asked for more!

Always love this place in the winter when biking or walking all day. Warm up in front of the real fires..... The lamb is a must and real ales are just perfect !!!

This inn is well tucked away, but worth the visit. Food is excellent, locally sourced and delicious, particularly the meat starter platter and cheese soufflé. The inn can get busy, so worth booking.
