The Eating Room is walk-ins only at lunch, whilst a reservation is required for the evening. This means that everyone can sample those delicious pub classics or local seasonal specials. We are proud to be awarded an AA Rosette for Culinary Excellence.
We want to showcase the best of Cumbrian food and drink so our new menu features traditional dishes made with the freshest local ingredients; the same is true of our ale selection.
We kindly request that any dinner reservations with children under 12 years of age are made for times at the beginning of the evening service.
If you intend to dine with your furry friends you will not be able to reserve a table. However you are most welcome to eat in our bar area, which does not take reservations and has the same menu as the Eating Room.
We’re all about keeping it local – not just because it sounds good, but because it tastes even better. Our ingredients come from nearby farms, butchers, fishmongers and grocers who pour heart and soul into what they do. That means fresher flavours, fewer food miles, and a menu that changes with the seasons. Supporting local isn’t just a feel-good extra – it’s the secret ingredient that makes every bite sing.

There’s something special about a stay at the Kings.
Each of our bedrooms is individually designed with antique furniture, textiles, prints and brimming with character…..no two rooms are the same.
Recharge in the picturesque village of Hawkshead….starting with breakfast and then spend the day exploring the villages, lakes and mountains of the glorious Lake District National Park.
A great day spent hiking up Great Dodd, off-road driving….a pint and dinner at The Kings…..👌

Last week we welcomed former England star Will Greenwood to our sister cottage Prospect House in Ambleside, followed by dinner with friends at the Kings Arms.
Swipe through for highlights of Will’s trip…..this is exactly the kind of experience we love to offer; a little bit of luxury in the Lake District.

You’ll never guess who stopped by last week….!
We had a very special guest staying at our sister cottages - former England rugby star Will Greenwood!
From the Kings defender pulling up outside to a well-earned glass of fizz after a walk on the fells, then heading over to the King’s Arms for dinner and a pint!
Doesn’t get much better than good company and the kind of spaces that make you want to stay a while.
DM for more info on our sister cottages or click the link in our bio to dine with us.
