About The Bridge Inn
Santon Bridge sits within reach of Wastwater and Scafell Pike, in the quieter western reaches of the Lake District, and it's here that The Bridge Inn makes its home. The hotel offers 16 rooms with en-suite bathrooms and air conditioning, giving guests a straightforward, comfortable base for exploring the surrounding fells and lakes.
The inn has its own restaurant and bar, along with a garden for warmer days, and breakfast is included to set guests up for the day ahead. Free WiFi, drinks in the room, and luggage storage cover the practical needs of both short breaks and longer stays, while meeting rooms and business services mean it can also handle a small conference or gathering. The property also works as a wedding venue, and pets are welcome for those travelling with dogs.
Outside the front door, walking and cycling routes lead into the fells, and fishing can be arranged nearby for those who prefer a slower pace. Further pubs, bars and restaurants in the area add options beyond the inn's own kitchen, and free on-site parking makes arriving by car straightforward.
Guests consistently praise this pub for its friendly and accommodating staff, clean facilities, and cozy atmosphere. They particularly enjoy the generously portioned and delicious steak and ale pie, fish and chips, and homemade meals.
Some reviews mention the service can be unprofessional.
