Bower House Inn

About Bower House Inn

Bower House Inn is a traditional stone inn set in the heart of Eskdale, the kind of building that has long served as a countryside pub and stopover for those exploring this corner of Cumbria. Its low ceilings, bar and garden give it a settled, old-fashioned character rather than a polished hotel feel, which suits its setting among the fells.

Rooms are en-suite and include family and accessible options, with drinks available in room and a straightforward comfort to the accommodation. The inn serves breakfast, packed lunches and meals in its restaurant and snack bar, with a bar for evening drinks and outdoor seating and a picnic area for warmer days. Free WiFi, luggage storage and 24-hour reception are all provided, along with free on-site parking and an electric vehicle charge point.

Pets are welcome, and kids' meals are available, making it a workable base for families as well as walkers and cyclists. The surrounding area is well suited to both, with walking and cycling routes on the doorstep, plus a golf course, pubs and restaurants nearby for those wanting to venture further. It is a place built around its location rather than added extras, offering a comfortable, no-frills stay after a day outdoors.
