Dog-friendly Lake District inn with award-winning pub dining and free live music

Amenities & Entertainment

The Crown Inn offers free live music nights in its traditional pub bar, with performances included at no extra cost to guests. Guests can borrow board games and puzzles from the bar for quiet evenings, while the designated smoking area is located outside. The property provides 24-hour security with CCTV coverage in common areas and outside, plus fire extinguishers and smoke alarms on every floor.

Rooms & Accommodations

The Crown Inn's 12 en-suite bedrooms come with high-quality mattresses, satellite TV, and private bathrooms with either a bath or shower. Some king rooms offer mountain views and are equipped with a Nespresso coffee machine and a fridge with fresh milk replaced daily. Dog-friendly rooms are available for a small additional charge, and guests arriving with pets receive a welcome gift including biscuits, a ball, and poo bags.

Location & Surroundings

The hotel sits in central Coniston, less than 0.5 miles from Coniston Water and within walking distance of the boating centre. Coniston Old Man fell is a mile away, and the Ruskin Museum and Tarn Hows are both reachable on foot or by a short drive. Free on-site parking is available, a rare convenience in the Lake District.

Dining & Drink

The pub bar and dining room serve classic British dishes such as homemade pies, using locally sourced produce where possible. A full English breakfast is offered each morning with an extensive menu of hot options, plus self-serve tea and coffee. The bar stocks a good range of local and national beers, and a separate children's menu is available for younger guests.

Pet & Family Policies

Dogs are welcome in designated rooms and public areas, with pet bowls and a welcome gift provided upon arrival. Families receive kids' meals, board games in the bar, and family rooms that can accommodate groups. The dining area is kept dog-free, so guests without pets can enjoy a separate space.
