Hi all,

I'm staying in Ambleside for the next few nights and was hoping to venture to a few pubs. The more rustic and traditional the better in my mind. None of this wine bar'esk rubbish.

Cheers

Scotty

the brotherswater inn on the other side of the kirkstone serves a fantastic pint of cumberland ale and usually a nice guest ale too.

try the lamb henry while you're there too.

The Golden Rule? Just avoid Churchills and you'll be alright.

+1 Golden Rule.

It's a Robinsons pub, but the beer is always decent and it's a proper no frills drinking pub. Spent may a good night in there.

Absolutely agree, and there is no chance you are getting over to Brotherswater in this weather anyway! The Kirkstone Pass is, I think, still closed (the pub up the top of there is actually pretty good too).

I would also venture into the Royal Oak as I have had a few good nights in there over the years!
