The Britannia Inn in Elterwater, England

The Britannia Inn provides free passes to the leisure facilities at the adjacent Langdale Estate Country Club. The hotel's own beer, the 'Britannia Special', is brewed exclusively on-site. Guests can bowl, cycle, hike, or go horse riding from the doorstep.

A varied menu of traditional and unique dishes is prepared using local produce whenever possible. The bar offers a rich selection of local ales, including the house-brewed 'Britannia Special'. Generous portion sizes are a hallmark of the dining offerings, and packed lunches are available on request for walkers.

Lake Windermere lies 3 miles from the inn, and Grizedale Forest provides outdoor adventures. Popular walking trails start directly from the hotel, and the bus stop opposite goes to Ambleside and the Langdales. Private parking is available for residents across the road.

Dogs are welcome with no extra charges, and the hotel provides pet-friendly accommodation. Staff can offer a sausage for dogs at breakfast upon request. Pets are not allowed in the dining room, but outdoor seating areas are available.
