Royal OakRoyal Oak is a real Tudor (1600's), traditional alehouse.  Refurbished in December 2007, we have retained original characteristic qualities such as black beams and a real fire.  The patio area / beer garden is a great feature, popular with ramblers to relax in after a days walking.  The pub consists of two rooms, a main front bar and back room, which are now joined by an open doorway.  We are in a picturesque part of the Lake District with many fell walkers coming to us to take in the excellent friendly and olde worlde atmosphere.  We are very well known by locals, students and visitors alike for our good range of real ales and beers which can be enjoyed in a trouble free environment.  A snack type menu is on offer every day, with hot and cold sandwiches, soup and more to choose from.  Many people come annually from far and wide to visit this very special pub.
