The Agricultural Inn, on Castlegate, has been featured in The Telegraph’s latest round-up of top UK pubs, with beer and pub reviewer Will Hawkes praising its character and atmosphere following a recent revival. “One group next to me are dissecting a recent Lake District walk (‘This week for me is about bagging as many fells as I can’),” he wrote. “You couldn’t call it a traditional pub atmosphere, quite, but it works.” The Agricultural Inn combines traditional features with a modern offering, including food service, a beer garden, and pet-friendly spaces. It is also popular with walkers thanks to its proximity to the Lake District and surrounding routes, while overnight accommodation adds to its appeal for tourists.
