Longlands Inn and Restaurant
A fantastic pub/restaurant with great food, beer and wines. Better still, it is just a short walk from the lodges or a few minutes in the car. With the Lancaster Canal in close proxity, this is a great start/finish point or pit stop for many great walks.

Old School Brewery, Warton
An absolute gem of a find in the nearby village of Warton (10 mins drive away or about 40 mins on foot). Parking is available in the old quarry next to the pub. This is also a great start/finish point for a walk up Warton Crag.
The premises has its own micro brewery and sells a range of beers etc. There is regular live entertainment and (at the time of writing) open mike nights on the second Friday of the month.
The pork pies here are legendary!

The Royal Hotel, Bolton le Sands
The Royal Hotel is a must visit when in the area. It is just a few minutes drive from the site, situated on the A6 in Bolton le Sands (just passed Carnforth when heading south).
The pub is very popular with locals as well as holiday makers and provides a range of real ales as well as excellent food.
The bar is very large inside with plenty of seating for those wishing to eat and/or drink. Also, the hotel is completely dog friendly.
In addition, the Royal has an enormous outside area (the Beer Haven) which is in use all year round. Better still, the ‘Haven’ has its own direct access to the Lancaster Canal so can be used as a pit stop when walking in this picturesque area of North Lancashire. See our ‘Carnforth to Bolton-le-Sands Circular’ walk guide for example of a near by stroll.
