Dining
westmorland_hotel_lounge.jpg
The restaurant itself is contemporary in design and has a wall of floor to ceiling windows which overlook the surrounding water feature and stunning fell views.
Our menus have been designed to provide a choice of traditional classics, some of which have a slightly modern twist.  Many of the ingredients are chosen with the seasons and local producers in mind, therefore reducing food miles.  Some however, are simply the chef's favourites from our award winning farm shop at Tebay Services.
In addition to this, the lamb and beef used within the dishes on our menus comes from our own farm in Orton, less than a mile from the hotel.  The farm is run by Bob Day who ensures only the lambs and beef cattle in peak condition go to the abattoir. "I transport the animals myself to ensure they are relaxed  and content - evidence proves low stress levels yield high meat quality".  The meat is then taken to our own meat maturing and cutting room at Tebay Services southbound, where it is prepared by our team of butchers. 
Together, these measures ensure maximum traceability, minimum food miles and consistent high quality.
The hotel restaurant is open for dinner, every evening from 6.30pm until 9pm.
For guests who prefer a lighter option, we also provide a 24 hour lounge menu.
