I spent a long weekend at the Boot Inn on a Wowcher deal. The Inn is wonderful,the guys that work there are all brilliant and so very willing to help you out and nothing is too much trouble. The food was amazing- being a vegetarian the selection was pretty good-and the portion sizes ( which were the "small "portion )... More

We visited Boot last year for the beer festival and went to the pub then but felt it was a bit jaded and lacked a comforting atmosphere. Got a voucher deal to go there and expected basic accommodation and food. However, we were very pleasantly surprised... More

Reasonable prices, hearty food for those who had been out on the fells all... More

Just spent the most wonderful weekend at the Boot Inn. I cannot recommend it highly enough. It has just been refurbished to a really high standard.
