We had an amazing time. The food amazing in a gorgeous pub. The atmosphere and hospitality was fantastic everyone made us feel welcome very friendly especially the lovely Keith, what a legend! Loved listening to the stories & the history of the building he was brilliant! We paid £132 a night (Tuesday( for our room, there was a few minor problems, especially the volume of the music that we could hear while in our room played in the bar & we did also wonder if it was actually a Superior room, (room 5). We would definitely stay again but request a different room.

Had such a lovely stay in The Horse & Farrier Inn. Rooms were small but clean and had all the facilites needed. Food at both dinner and breakfast was delicious. Location is great, only a short drive into Keswick, with beautiful views of the mountains. Staff were really friendly and helpful. Will definitely return.

Disappointed with breakfast especially for my partner who is coeliac and has to have gluten free food. Room was comfortable and nicely decorated but little things like a very rusty bin in the bathroom spoil the effect.

Cosy pub/ restaurant/ hotel in a stunning Lake District spot.
Sunday lunch was extremely tasty, served by very attentive staff.
Our room, the Blencathra suite, was a perfect fit for our family. Spotlessly clean, super comfortable bed, which made for great nights sleep.

Pretty average stay with unfriendly staff and varying levels of food - some good some average. Of note was the scrambled egg on toast which was minuscule. Bedrooms were clean, shower was powerful and hot. Walls had peeling paint and general areas of the hotel were grotty in places. Wouldn’t stay again.

A great wee spot to stay in the Lake District. Our room was quiet and the king sized bed very comfortable. The food was good and the staff were very friendly and helpful. Parking was easy and it’s only a short walk through the village to get onto the old railway tracks walk which takes you into Keswick, 5km away. We will be back😊

We've stayed here before and it was well up to standard. Efforts of the team were much appreciated.
8.0 / 10.0
Lovely big bed in the main bedroom but we couldn't sleep because of the constant noise of the air conditioning unit for the pub. Fortunately, it couldn't be heard in the second bedroom, so we moved into that.
The stairs were steep, narrow and winding, which could be an issue for anyone with a mobility problem.

I stayed in the Horse and Farrier pub, which was busy when I arrived. Quick check in process and my room was lovely and very comfy. Just a quick overnight stop for work this time. Good quality linen and towels, clean. Great nights sleep - no noise from downstairs. Breakfast was included and was cooked to order.

Really lovely Hotel and Pub. Very accommodating to guests staying at the Hotel, to find them a table for dinner or just a couple of drinks. Dog friendly on non-carpet areas, which is the majority of the pub. All staff really Friendly. The bed was a little hard, but I think that comes down to personal preference. Would recommend and we would stay again!

We stayed 2 nights with breakfast, a Friday and Saturday. It was a family stay as we were attending a wedding locally. We reserved 2 rooms. Both were clean, tastefully decorated and had small en-suites, one with a bath and the other a shower. The rooms were very warm. There was no air con but we opened a window and a fan was provided. It was very quiet outside so this wasn’t an issue and we had a nice view of the mountain behind. We ate in the restaurant on the first night and the food and hospitality were excellent. All the staff were very helpful. The breakfast is great too with a choice of cooked or continental with juices, nuts, yoghurts and soya options. We would definitely recommend.

The bathroom was clean, as was the bedroom, except carpet was very worn & not so clean looking. We had twin beds, which were comfortable. We ate dinner at the pub that evening & the food & service were both good! The included, cooked to order breakfast was very tasty.
All the staff were helpful!

Friendly and welcoming from the start, all staff were smiley and helpful. Our room was clean, comfortable and the shower was amazing! We had drinks in the bar and ate later on for dinner, service was fabulous and the food great value for money. We had a quiet and relaxed sleep in a very comfy bed. Breakfast was served by lovely staff and the produce used on the full English was tasty and good quality. Highly recommended and would stay again.

Lovely little pub, which is dog friendly in the bar but sadly not the rooms. Pleasant stay in a very small twin room, good breakfast included and nice pub food available in the evening.

3.0 / 10.0
This was a birthday/ anniversary trip for 2 nights. Check-in was great, with friendly and welcoming staff. The pub itself and our room were warm, cosy, and really nicely decorated. The food was great: both the full Cumbian breakfast and the evening meal we had on the Saturday night.
The reason I've given 3 stars out of 5 is that we had such a bad night last night (Saturday). We expect noise from the bar when we're staying in a pub; after all, the buildings are typically old and don't have sound insulation. However, given that the bar closes at 11.00pm, and allowing time for people to drink up and leave, it seems reasonable to hope that things will be quiet by midnight - but they weren’t. We were in room 6, above the far end of the bar. By 1.00 in the morning I couldn't take any more and went downstairs to ask for the noise to stop. To my surprise there was a member of staff there, who must have known how easily the sound travels but was allowing the noise to continue.
It's such a shame to have to include this in my review, because otherwise we had a lovely stay. But consideration needs to be given to guests who are upstairs trying to sleep, especially if they are planning an early start for a long walk or climb, as many people must be who stay at this pub.

Beautiful rooms, great service (Keith is a legend!) and excellent, great value food. Only a 5 minute drive to Keswick and a great base for walks in the fells.

Simply fantastic option. Warm friendly staff from the off. Stayed in a suite which was really pleasant. Food was excellent. Drying room for wet hiking clothes was a bonus.

Great place to stay, fabulous food and good service from hardworking friendly staff.
Very busy restaurant and bar with a great drinks menu, limited food menu and daily specials. Food was excellent, (and large portions). Outside had a large seating area. (only gripe is that they do not have a small residents sitting room. If you want a quiet drink at the bar when it's busy there is no room, or you sit outside.
We stayed for 3 nights in one of the smaller rooms, very compact bathroom which included very good shower, a small sink and toilet. Only gripe is that the towel rail was too high on the wall above the toilet and only 1 narrow glass shelf above the sink. The bedroom had a kettle and tea/coffee, tv, hairdryer, very comfy bed, pillows not so comfy (but that's my personal opinion) . There was a desk and a chair and a cubby hole with hangers in the wall for clothes. Room was above the kitchen but that never bothered us and was very quiet after the kitchen closed. Had 3 great night's sleep.
We will definitely stay again.

Great pub in great location at a very good price. Amazing evening meal. Floorboards quite thin so could hear downstairs when in room however was quiet 11pm onwards. Breakfast was spot on, pastries would have made it 5 out 5. Overall don’t hesitate to stay here if I’m Keswick area!
