Mortal Man Hotel

Food was very nice. It's not cheap but locally represents decent value for money. The service was a weird mix of self service as in you have to get your own cutlery and sauces which isn't the end of the world but for 3 courses you'll be paying £70 with a few drinks. Decent selection of alcohol but for tall people the beams are low so watch your head!

Great location to have a pint, walked from Ambleside to Troutbeck and stopped off here mid way. Lovely traditional feel. Good selection of food and ales!

A lovely pub. Great food, great beer and a huge selection of cider. Friendly welcoming staff. Great for lunch or dinner. I would recommend booking in the evening.
Ample parking.

Haven't tried the hotel, but I've eaten and drunk here several times over the last three years. The food is fine, adequate, if a little expensive. It's all about the beer and cider, and the friendly atmosphere. The main bar is the hub, with folk evenings, spoken word evenings or plenty of opportunities for a quiet post-walk pint or five. As you move through the rooms, the view improves (big windows looking down the valley) but the atmosphere gets a bit more "hotel restaurant". I prefer the first two rooms. As for the beer and cider... five local ales and (literally) a wall of ciders! Always in excellent condition, too.

The hotel might be a little hard to get to, but it's well worth it. We only needed the room for one night so we picked one of the lowest priced places we could find, but we got way more than we expected. The building looks great, pretty unusual look inside. Everywhere was very clean and tidy. And the staff were absolutely great. All very friendly and helpful, as well as good conversation. The choice of drinks in the bar was remarkable. Definitely intend to stay there again, and can't recommend the place highly enough.

Top place to eat. We usually stop off on route but also good for a meal out. Has live music and more flavours of cider than I've ever seen.

We called in as a party of Five,on the off chance of a drink as the weather was glorious.
We ended up stopping for a meal, every meal was really hearty and presented with great care and attention. Food and drink prices are also very reasonable
Recommend a stop at any time.

Had a pint and a sandwich as I was finishing a very nice hike through Wansfell. Both were really good!

Lovely old hotel in a beautiful spot. Their own Sally Birkett ale was great. Nice bar meals as well. Lovely beer garden.
