Three Shires Inn
About
This traditional slate Inn was built in 1872 near the meeting point of the old counties of Westmorland, Lancashire and Cumberland. The valley of Little Langdale is the most peaceful and unspoilt in the central Lake District. Leave your car and walk from the door on many high or low level walks.
The Three Shires has been sympathetically extended and upgraded to provide 10 comfortable en-suite bedrooms. The slate-floored walker's bar and resident's lounge have log fires on cooler days. Traditional ales, a large selection of malt whiskies and well chosen wines are on offer in the bar and restaurant, where meals are served every lunch time and evening.
There are delightful views over the Tilberthwaite Fells from the bedrooms, lounge and restaurant. In summer the south facing garden terrace and hotel verandahs are strewn with flowers: wonderful places relax and enjoy the views. Tony and James and their staff extend a warm welcome and personal service at the Three Shires Inn, where guests can appreciate friendly hospitality in a peaceful setting with stunning scenery.
