Kirkstile Inn
Review
Every now and then, I stumble upon a place so special that I want to keep it all to myself. But then I remember, it’s my job to share these gems. The Kirkstile Inn in Loweswater is exactly that. Nestled in one of the most scenic corners of the Lake District, this charming inn has been in the same family for a quarter of a century and their passion shines through in every detail. The rooms blend traditional charm with contemporary comfort, offering one of the quietest, most restful nights imaginable. Then there’s the food. Anna & Roger Humphrey’s, a father-and-daughter duo, along with their talented kitchen team, take immense pride in sourcing the finest ingredients. Every dish is a delight, served with care and authenticity. Whether you’re here for a romantic retreat or a cozy meal by the fire, Kirkstile Inn is a place you’ll never want to leave.
