New Dungeon Ghyll Hotel, Langdale, Cumbria, LA22 9JX
Sitting beneath the Langdale Pikes, this handsome stone former farmhouse blends effortlessly into its wild surroundings.

The 22 guest rooms all offer views of the valley or fells. Friendly staff, comfortable surroundings and direct access to famed walks make it a walker’s dream. A delightful blend of rustic charm and genuine warmth offers travellers the perfect place to explore the Lake District National Park.
Food & Drinks
Our dishes are lovingly prepared by our kitchen team, with seasonal menus that celebrate the best ingredients at their peak. Inspired by Modern British cooking, many of our ingredients are sourced locally and chosen for their quality and flavour.
Our full menu offers something for everyone.
Crafted Drinks
At our pub, the drinks are chosen with as much care as the food. Local ales, perfectly kept and full of character. Crisp, coastal whites and robust reds that stand up to hearty dishes. A thoughtful gin and tonic, a warming whisky by the fire. Nothing flashy, just honest, well-balanced flavours that complement the food and reflect the land around you. The kind of drinks you remember, not because they shouted, but because they quietly belonged.
Outdoor Dining
The outdoor dining space and gardens are simple, unfussy, and quietly beautiful. Wooden tables catch the afternoon sun, with local florabunda brushing the air with scent. You can hear the soft clink of glasses, the hum of conversation, maybe the faint bleat of a sheep. It’s the kind of spot where a pint of local ale or a crisp glass of white feels just right, and where food tastes better simply because you’re outside, with time to spare and nothing to prove, just watch for the rain.
A Sunday Tradition
The Sunday roast, an age old British tradition, reimagined with a playful nod in our pub. Perfectly roasted meats, spuds with a satisfying crunch, Yorkshires puffed up like proud old hats, and seasonal veg with just the right bite. All bathed in chefs rich, glossy gravy. It’s a meal that feels like a hug from history, comforting, familiar, tasty, but with just enough finesse to keep things interesting. A proper Sunday, done right.
