Wateredge Hotel, Ambleside
Holbeck Ghyll Country House Hotel
Enjoy your evening with Ride and Dine
Come and visit us at ORGANICO
Village and country pubs offer a wide choice of bar meals and there are many local restaurants from which to make your choice - English, Modern European, Italian, Indian, Chinese, Greek or Vegetarian - most restaurants advertise locally and are usually busy particularly at the weekends. It is normally a good idea to book in advance during your stay.

If you decide to stay 'at home' and cook your own evening meal you will find an excellent choice of local produce from a variety of specialist shops - indeed it can be a real treat just having the time to shop for interesting delicacies to eat 'at home' with a good bottle of wine bought from one of our local wine shops.
