Great Food - Great Places to Eat - Great Food Producers
A visit to North Lancashire and South Lakeland is so much more than its scenery. Quite simply, it has some of the finest food producers and eating places in the entire country.
So here are a few places that we are confident to recommend to you during your stay with us :-

The Plough, Lupton After 2 years hard work, The Plough interior is now a beautiful open space in which to relax and be easy; with wood burning stoves, stunning oak beams, antique furniture, and rustic wine caves. If it stopped there, it would be good enough reason to visit. Yet there is more. A great choice of exciting chef-prepared, well presented food from 'Small Things' (make up your own tasters), through a wide choice of Grills (meat, fish and veg) to sandwiches and light lunch. Caring, and responsive staff too. Open for food 12:00 - 9.30 p.m. |
