This is a lovely hotel with its own wood where you can spend a couple of hours walking happily. Excellent food at dinner and breakfast. Welcoming staff. Our room was a fair walk from the restaurant so, if you have mobility issues, might be as well to ask for a closer room.



Excellent food, brilliant location

Vert old and quaint Inn. Comfortable suite, dob bed, bowls and treats provided. Useful Veranda area as well, even though suite is on 1st floor. Staff are truly amazing and the food is top notch (nosh!!!).

Excellent dog friendly Inn.

I have never left a review for anyone on Trip Advisor before, but I just had to for The Wild Boar. My partner and I stayed here over the weekend for his birthday and our stay here easily took the spot for highlight of the trip. To us it felt as though the Wild Boar had thought of every little detail and touchpoint to make their business special to those that stay here, from the service, the food to the wellies to use in their woodlands, everything was well thought and made our stay feel like a home away from home.

If/when we come back to the Lake District I couldn't imagine staying anywhere else. The food was incredible, breakfast to dinner, the staff are friendly and the surrounding woodland was such a nice addition to start the day with a walk outside. Everything was great, even in the midst of the rainy winter we couldn't fault our stay here. 

First time in the Lake District

We took advantage of the Boxing Day sale and had 2 lovely nights in this fabulous hotel.
Breakfast was included in the offer and was really good with lots of choice.
We had one evening meal and were both impressed by the choice of local produce. Everything was delicious 

2 night break

My wife and I came on a special offer by the hotel for Bed and Breakfast but we also bought our evening meal.
From the moment we entered the hotel it oozed luxury.
Friendly receptionist.
Pre-dinner drinks - a wide selection and not overly priced.
We had main and dessert courses which were out of this world. Cooked to perfection and well presented. Waiting on staff was helpful and polite.
Breakfast, well I've never had the like. What a selection. The main part was cooked to order and delivered to the table piping hot. Help yourself to cereals, croissants, bread and juices. 
Bedroom - clean and everything we needed.
Secure carpark.
As the title says - the epitome of luxury 

The Epitome of Luxury 

This was our second time here using a Travelzoo voucher offer, great value with breakfast included and a bottle of Prosecco waiting in the room on arrival. 
The room was spacious and warm, bathroom had quality toiletries, toasty towel rail and a bath. 
The bar area is fantastic with a couple of old roaring fires. 
We ate in the restaurant, a very good meal and good service. 
So much choice at breakfast, pastries, home made white choc and cranberry granola, lots of fruit, all this before the cooked breakfast where again there are some unusual dishes offered alongside the traditional English (I tried the cheese rarebit with a duck egg). 
As we were staying here, it’s possible to use the pool at the spa of the sister hotel, the Low Wood Bay near Windermere, after 5.30pm, this was a nice extra treat. 
All the staff at the Wild Boar were very helpful and cheery. 
Hope to return again next year.

Another lovely stay here🙂

Absolutely fantastic few nights in the Lake District at the Wild Boar. Great Staff lead by Adam. Fantastic Entertainment. Great atmosphere. Loved everything from the casino to the clay pigeon shooting, from the champagne tasting to the New Years Eve Celebration with an excellent DJ. Copious amounts of good beer( brewed on the premises), lots of nice champagne and no end of amazing food. Not forgetting the walk back from the shooting with the Bird of Prey Ivan.

New Years Eve Getaway

Having visited the Wild Boar for their afternoon tea before, we decided that this year, we would treat ourselves and stay there for New Year. This comes as a min of a 2 night package which includes food and stay, a 7 course gala dinner on NYE, activities and disco. From the moment we arrived, we knew we wouldn’t regret it. 

Overall, the staff were welcoming, the place looked lovely, the food was superb. As part of the New Years Eve package, on the 30th there was a casino night and on 31st there was clay pigeon shooting and then champagne tasting (4 glasses, so a good amount to get us feeling merry before the evening had even started!) The disco played a good selection of tunes to get everyone up and dancing. It was good fun. The activities helped everyone get chatting so come NYE, you had some report with other guests which made the night even more fun. 

Bedrooms: we stayed in a classic room. The room was large, comfy bed and lovely bedding. But, the overall decor could do with a refresh. The bathroom was small (came with bath with shower). 

Food: this is a smokehouse so is all about the meat. Their afternoon tea which can be had anytime is superb. I would highly recommend. For the New Year celebrations, on 30th, it started with an afternoon tea which was done as a buffet. All very tasty and good selection. On the evening, we had a 3 course dinner which was delicious. On New Years Eve, the breakfasts selection was good and had a range of options to cater for all. We then had a ploughman’s lunch. On the evening, we started with canapés which were lovely and then a 7 course dinner. The beef especially was to die for! 

Location: this is in the middle of now where. They have a lot of land so can go on nice walks, but, it is on a road without a footpath. In winter it’s very dark, so you can’t go out for a walk. We did get a taxi into Bowness which cost approx £10. 

I would recommend visiting the Wild Boar at any time of year. You always get good service and the food is superb.

Fantastic New Year, superb food as expected

Fantastic, was a little late and panicking but no need, the staff were wonderful. The alternative afternoon tea was a hit with all four of us and would love to visit again. Highly recommended. A great experience.

Alternative afternoon tea a hit with us
