Nestled between the Lake District and Yorkshire Dales National Parks, Ingleton Falls and the Trough of Bowland are also within easy access of Kirkby Lonsdale. The boutique Sun Inn in the centre of Kirkby Lonsdale combines the character and charm of a 17th century inn and AA two rosette restaurant with the luxury of contemporary, modern hotel accommodation. Stay in one of the Sun Inn’s eleven luxur

ious hotel bedrooms on a bed and breakfast basis (and see why we’ve been given an AA Breakfast Award 2015) or enjoy further foodie treats with dinner during your stay in Kirkby Lonsdale. The restaurant at the Sun Inn is featured as a ‘local gem’ in the 2015 Good Food Guide and offers a selection of light snacks, lunches and dinners, as well as ‘Posh Noshers’ wine tastings and gourmet foodie breaks. Locally sourced food and award winning sausages from our own Kirkby Lonsdale butcher make a fantastic breakfast. Meanwhile, real ales and roaring log fires in those colder months, will welcome you in the Sun Inn’s traditional bar area. Just behind the Sun Inn’s boutique B&B in Kirkby Lonsdale is St Marys Churchyard, with the original sun dial which inspired the inn’s name. Guests can also meander down to the River Lune to enjoy Ruskin’s View, immortalised by the painter JMW Turner, during an overnight stay at this Cumbrian beauty spot. So whether you are just looking for a place to eat, or want a luxury short break close to Ingleton, North Yorkshire and the Lake District, then the Sun Inn at Kirkby Lonsdale can accommodate your needs with boutique hotel rooms, award-winning breakfasts and evening meals, and a warm, personal service. We even have luxury dog-friendly bedrooms too.

🏔️ Ingleborough. 723 metres of pure Yorkshire Dales magic, and just a short drive from the Sun Inn.

Whether you're an experienced hiker or simply after a proper day out in the fresh air, this one is hard to beat. The views from the summit are something else entirely — and the feeling when you get back down and sink into a chair at the bar? Even better. 😄

⚽ Not a football fan? We've got just the place.

While World Cup fever takes over the nation, the Sun Inn is your peaceful retreat from it all.

No noise, no commentary, no VAR drama. Just a warm welcome, a beautifully crafted Two AA Rosette meal, a cold glass of something lovely and the kind of quiet, unhurried atmosphere that reminds you there's more to life than penalty shootouts.

🍺 New beers on tap — come and try them.

We're excited to share that we've added three brilliant new beers to the bar:
🍋 Hobgoblin Session IPA — a hoppy, refreshing pour for the IPA lovers
🍺 Carlsberg Pilsner — crisp, clean and always a crowd pleaser
🍏 Thatchers Gold — a classic, refreshing cider for those who prefer something a little fruitier

Something for everyone — and all waiting for you at the Sun Inn.

🎺 Were you in Kirkby Lonsdale on Sunday?

What a brilliant day! The town looked and sounded incredible for the Brass Band Competition — there's nowhere quite like Kirkby Lonsdale when it comes alive like that.

We were thrilled to support the event by donating a raffle prize, and we hope whoever won it enjoys every single moment of their visit to us. 🥂

If the day got you thinking about spending a little more time in this special town — well, you know where we are. 😊

It's the kind of cooking that keeps things exciting. You never quite know what's coming, but you can be sure it'll be fresh, seasonal and made with the finest produce from Cumbria, Lancashire and Yorkshire.
