A warm welcome, friendly staff, and a comfortable, clean room. I had pizza from the restaurant (perfect vegan mushroom & sunblushed tomatoes!) and non-alcoholic cider. More vegan options would have been good, e.g. non dairy milk, spread, or sausages for breakfast. Overall great though, would definitely recommend.

Wonderful two nights staying in the Barn Annexe as we had our dog with us. That Annexe was spotless, spacious and caters to all your needs. This was our forth time staying at the Hare and Hounds in both rooms within the inn and the Barn. The staff are friendly and welcoming and the food was excellent both the variety at breakfast and evening meals. Highly recommended. We’re going back for another visit end of November.

Lovely pub, room was great, clean tidy and a little mini fridge with water and fresh milk. Bed was comfy. Cafetiere provided too. Food was very good and the staff were very friendly and helpful. We hadn't booked for dinner but they provided a little table for us which was great. I recommend booking a table as it gets very busy. We stayed on a Friday night. Good access to many of the lakes attractions and some good walks nearby. Would definitely stay again and recommend.
