Historic 17th-century inn with panoramic valley views in Troutbeck

Dining & Local Ales

The inn's restaurant, The Garden Room, serves dishes made with local produce and offers panoramic views of Lakeland mountains. The traditional pub bar offers a range of local ales, including the Fell Walker pale ale, alongside a bar menu with homemade pies and fish and chips. Guests can also dine in the large beer garden, which has plenty of seating and countryside views, or order a packed lunch for day hikes.

Rooms & Historic Charm

Country house-style rooms at The Mortal Man Inn come with TVs, radios, and tea/coffee-making facilities, with bathrooms that offer both baths and showers. Many rooms feature magnificent views of Windermere and the surrounding fells, and some have four-poster beds. The building itself dates from the 17th century, with historic features such as open log fires in the pub and quirky corridors that add to the inn's character.

Pet-Friendly Policies

Dogs are welcome in all areas of the building and in every room, with a nightly charge of £15 per dog and a requirement to keep them on a lead in public areas including the car park. The hotel provides dog bowls, and on arrival guests may receive a dog goodie bag containing treats and a ball. Pets are allowed in all parts of the hotel, including the bar and restaurant, making this one of the most dog-friendly inns in the Lake District.

Activities & Outdoor Entertainment

Guests can go canoeing, cycling, hiking, fishing, horse riding, and darts on site or within walking distance of the inn. Evening entertainment includes live music and performances, with acoustic Tuesdays and a games room available. The large beer garden hosts summer events and a wooden soft play area for children, while the inn also offers board games and puzzles for family fun.
