We are committed to providing our guests with the best possible start to the day.

We use only the finest locally sourced produce to create a high quality Cumbrian breakfast, as well as vegetarian and fishy options. In addition, we now serve our own home-made bread.

Great care and attention has gone into finding the best ingredients the county has to offer. For example, our sausage and bacon are from Askerton Castle who produce organic pork from traditional breeds which ensures fine slow growing meat of excellent texture and flavour. We only ever use free-range eggs from a local farm. All our beverages are fairtrade and many of the other products we use are organic.

We don't just cater for the committed carnivores either, any special dietry needs will be catered for on request with the same commitment to quality and locality.

We aim to offer a choice at breakfast with fresh Craster kippers available and also a daily special. Specials include the likes of Cumbrian Ham or Smoked Haddock Benedict, Craster Smoked Salmon or Solway Shrimps with Scrambled Eggs and Home-made Pancakes.

All our breakfasts are freshly prepared and delivered piping hot to your table. We are very proud of the fact we do not own a microwave!
