About The Sun Inn

Sixteen rooms is all The Sun Inn has, and that's rather the point: this is a small, adults-only coaching inn on Market Street in Ulverston, built for guests who want a proper bar and a quiet night rather than a big hotel operation. Rooms come with en-suite bathrooms, drinks available in-room, and free WiFi, spread across three floors of an old inn with plenty of character.

Downstairs there's a restaurant and bar serving breakfast and local ales, with a garden for warmer days and 24-hour reception for whatever hour you arrive. Free on-site parking is included, and pets are welcome, which makes it an easy base for those travelling with a dog.

Ulverston itself is within easy reach of the Lake District and the Furness Peninsula, with walking and cycling country on the doorstep and golf, fishing and watersports all nearby, alongside further pubs and restaurants in the town for evenings out.
