Very comfortable room and quiet considering it was a public house. Slight noise from being on a main road but I live in a very rural area so any noise will be noticeable for me! Very friendly and helpful staff.

Country pub with rooms.
We just stayed for one night as we were passing the area. Everything was spotlessly clean and the bed was super comfortable with high quality bedding. Our choice of breakfast was a full cooked English which was cooked to order with everything hot and tasty. The owners were friendly and pointed us in the right direction for a walk nearby. The only downside is the noise of the main road which is close by. If you don’t mind that then this is a really good place to stay.

Lovely Olde worlde pub. On a busy road but that didn’t matter at night for sleeping. Convenient parking. Owners & staff were all really friendly & helpful. Rooms were lovely, if a little small, but well decorated & welcoming. Food was great with a good choice. Would book again & definitely recommend.

The Lake Districts hidden gem !
What an amazing place to stay. Nothing was too much trouble for the staff, the place was clean and comfortable, the food was brilliant, parking was free, and we felt like locals from the minute we arrived. We feel like we found the Lake Districts hidden gem, and we've already booked to go back for a few days in August.

Lovely overnight stay
The room was comfortable and looked very inviting. There was everything we needed. Breakfast was great, although we were too late to eat our evening meal there. The kitchen had closed. The shower was good. The saniflow toilet did not flush very well, but we appreciate that it was probably the only option when installing the en-suite. We would recommend the Punchbowl to others.

Lovely night away for couples
It was beautiful and the people who worked there were so friendly and kind, the location was great for a late evening walks and was so close to popping over to lake windermere. The bed was cosy and warm and the room was really clean and cute, we can not wait to go back
