With outstanding views across the fells and Coniston Valley, sit back and relax as you enjoy our wide range of soft drinks, flavoured teas, Gin or Real Ale.

What a fabulous week it was ❤️

We were so privileged to see Donald Campbell’s Bluebird back on Coniston Water last week, and thrilled to see Coniston capture so many hearts once again. From breathtaking fell walks and cosy fires to stunning lake views and a warm Cumbrian welcome, it’s easy to see why people continue to fall in love with our little corner of the Lakes.

We’re proud to call Coniston home — and whether you’re visiting for adventure, relaxation, or simply a proper pint after a day outdoors, we’d love to welcome you to The Sun Hotel.

UPDATE! Unfortunately, due to lower than expected visitor numbers in the village this week, we’ve made the difficult decision to cancel Marwood Band’s performance on Wednesday 13th May. We will still be open and serving food and drinks as normal.

We didn’t want the band to be playing to an empty room, and we hope to welcome them back at a busier time later in the season. Thank you for your understanding and continued support.

We are still hosting the Holborn Hillbillies on Saturday from 8pm and hope to see you then!
