Eclectic, eccentric character pub perched on the hill above the beautiful village of Coniston. We stayed for a night and thoroughly enjoyed the hotel, the ale and the service. The breakfast included a full English and was five stars.
Very friendly and lively hotel and bar but all in a good way. Noticeable that other pubs in Coniston tend to attract more visitors than locals, whereas the Sun has a good band of locals that make for a convivial atmosphere. Not eating meat we found the official menu a bit limiting for dinner, but on talking to staff it seemed more vegetarian options could be available - on the Sunday evening we had an enormous nut roast with all trimmings and sensitivity prepared fresh vegetables. Perfectly cooked fish, great sticky toffee and excellent beers. Hotel well positioned for walking directly up all the local mountains including the Old Man, Wetherlam, Dow Crag and Swirl How with no need for a car. Staff wonderful, ditto the owners and the other guests. Very enjoyable long weekend.
After a tiring ramble up Coniston Old Man we went to the Sun Inn for some tea. We sat by the fire to warm up and filled ourselves with beer and pie. The Sun had a great atmosphere and the staff were lovely, we were very happy campers by the time we were heading back to the campsite to sleep it all off. Would absolutely consider staying here in the future.
Fabulous location, well presented pub. Just stopped for lunch so can't say about the rooms. Menu prices slightly high but food was good, cooked well and in good portions. However they did get our order wrong and missed off an entire meal, so one of our party had to wait another 25 minutes for theirs and by that time, the rest of us had finished. But would still go back x
