Breakfast at the Waterwheel

Start your day in the heart of the Lake District with a memorable breakfast at the Waterwheel.
Served in our charming dining room—with its original slate-flagged floor and metre-thick stone walls
overlooking quaint Bridge Street—you’ll enjoy the tranquil sound of the beck just outside the window.

Fuel up for the day with a hearty cooked breakfast, perfect before setting off for the hills or
exploring the local area. We’re proud to serve
locally sourced Cumberland sausages and dry-cured bacon from Garside’s Butchers,
an award-winning family-run shop just down the street.

Alongside your cooked breakfast, help yourself to a seasonal fresh fruit salad, creamy Lancashire yoghurt,
and as much thick-cut toast, tea, and coffee as you like. We also offer a delicious selection of
jams and marmalades from Hawkshead Relish, all
gluten-free, nut-free, additive-free, and suitable for vegans.

We’re happy to cater for all dietary requirements, allergies, or intolerances—just let us know
in advance and we’ll ensure you’re well looked after.

Breakfast is served 8.30am – 9.00am
(An earlier breakfast can sometimes be arranged if requested prior to arrival)
