staff were great, inn hasn't got the coal fire quaintness of a country pub which I had expected. Think the lack of background music in restaurant and bar made a difference. Food tasty and well priced and service attentive. If you are in the rooms 6 7 or 8, they are well decorated and seemed new (loft conversion) but the... more

Before I saw the hotel I didn't know much about it because my friends decided to sleep in there and I didn't expected nice rooms. But then, I felt like in a 4-Star-Hotel. The rooms are pretty nice and very modern. The bathroom is very new and is very beautiful. The bed was really a dream, I thought I'm sleeping... more

Tried a midweek break at the Sun Inn in the charming village of Hawkshead. Always busy on the beer sales but we thought that the food was a bit on the expensive side with only a basic menu. (Half of which was sold out by our second day.) The Queen s Head is a good option in the village. Rooms... more

My husband booked this hotel for my birthday and I have to say that the customer service was appalling. The managers were rude and unhelpful, happier propping up the bar than making sure their customers were happy. The rooms were nicely decorated but the one we stayed in was very small. The television stopped working half way through the evening,... more

Stayed here for a weekend break. we were in one of the rooms at the very top, nicely decorated, good use of space. All facilities good, need to borrow the hairdryer from behind bar, but this was no hassle really. Good choice at breakfast. Ate here on first evening and then tried one of the other 3 pubs for our... more

The Sun Inn is set in the charming village of Hawkshead. On arrival the staff were helpful. The rooms have been recently refurbished and had pleasant/contemporary decor with good, modern facilities. The pub was busy in the evening and had a good atmosphere - typical lakeland Inn. The only slight negative was on settling the tariff the manager/owner wasnt very... more
