The best days here have no plan to speak of.

A wander through the countryside, blackberries in the hedge, a drink on the terrace, and a whole afternoon stretching out ahead with nowhere in particular to be. It's the version of the Lakes we'd send everyone to.

Save this for the weekend you're owed.

The long lunch is a fine art, and one we take rather seriously.

Gather around the table for a seasonal meal, a good bottle of something and your favourite people. No last orders to beat, no reason to rush the afternoon, that's the whole point.

The good life, Lyth Valley edition.

Long lunches, golden afternoons on the terrace, a drink in the afternoon sun, and the hedgerows heavy with blackberries on the way home. It's the version of the Lakes you actually came for, and it's all right here.

Save it for the weekend you're owed.

Some places just feel like a little escape, and we like to think this is one of them.

A proper country pub tucked into the Lyth Valley, orchards on one side and the fells on the other. Quietly luxurious, warm and only a short drive from the crowds.

Come and slow down with us for an afternoon.

Consider this your invitation to stay a while.

A long lunch by the fire, a room to slow right down in, and a valley that asks nothing of you. The quintessential Lakes escape, quietly luxurious and never stuffy.

Booking direct with us is always the best way, and it takes about a minute https://www.the-punchbowl.co.uk/

There's nothing like a golden afternoon here, so come and find your spot in the autumn sun or next to the cosy fire.

A chilled glass, and the valley glowing gold behind you. The terrace is waiting, and we can't think of a better seat in the Lakes.

We are only five miles from Windermere, but it feels a good deal further from the crowds. Orchards, fell views and true peace, the sort you have to leave the main road to find, that little detour is the whole appeal.

Swipe through, then come and find us.

The mornings here are best taken slowly.

A coffee outside in the autumn sun, no itinerary to speak of, and a valley view on the doorstep, we can't think of a better way to start the day.
