1. 1863 Bar Bistro Rooms
British, Modern restaurant in Pooley Bridge
Elm House, High Street - CA10

2021 Review: This “cosy and relaxed gastropub” near Penrith serves “reliably good” food “using produce from their own farm and garden”. With its “simple rooms and reasonable breakfast”, it makes “a great overnight stopping-point just off the M6” – and dogs are welcome, too.

4. The Dog & Gun
British, Modern restaurant in Skelton
