Alexander’s Pub at Castle Green Hotel is a charming and inviting establishment nestled within the beautiful surroundings of Castle Green’s historic grounds. With its warm and cozy atmosphere, this pub exudes a sense of comfort and relaxation.Sunday roasts are truly the best way to celebrate the end of the week! This British favourite certainly is our most popular dish in Alexanders.Head on up to our woodland walk behind Alexander’s. The woods are filled with a blanket of bluebells in spring, plenty of sticks to get den building, and lots of nature for the whole family to enjoy. Finish off with a tasty treat in Alexander’s.⁠With the best views for miles, where else would you want to be?

Please note we cannot guarantee specific tables when booking on line or at busy times.The Cavendish Arms is a 450 year old Coaching inn set in the heart of Cartmel. With Simon Rogan and his famous Lenclume restaurant we have some very high standards to maintain. Our food is fresh and sourced locally to ensure the freshest ingredients are on your plate at all times. Our menu changes often and is always being developed by our very talented Head Chef and his team. Along with a great food offering, we are challenging boundaries with our selection of 25 gins, 10 whiskeys and many more superior sprits, we always try to have an alternative rather than using main stream brands behind the bar, ensuring our guests receive the best possible value for money we can provide whilst experiencing a better than expected product. In short our aim is to make sure you leave having had a memorable time and be wearing a huge smile.

Using only freshly sourced Lancashire ingredients, including fresh seasonal vegetables, juicy steaks, fresh fish along with deliciously prepared vegetarian options, we have a menu to suit all tastes. Being right on the North Lancashire and South Cumbria border, the Longlands Inn is surrounded by farmers offering some great local specialties. Fell-bred and salt-marsh lamb, fabulous cheeses, freshly-caught fish, are then all expertly prepared and cooked by our brilliant resident chef Mark Swanton.The hotel has recently gone through a complete refurbishment of the downstairs areas and we have created cosy drinking areas, a mixtures of high and low seating and a private dining area. The open pass from the kitchen allows guests to see our kitchen in operation and all this leads to creating a lively buzz and great atmosphere.
