The Derby Arms in Witherslack offers fabulous accommodation, wonderful food and a great bar, all in a charming traditional setting. We are perfect for a relaxing Cumbrian getaway in a lovely part of the country.

We have 6 cosy and comfortable en suite rooms available, all perfect for an unforgettable holiday on the edge of the Lake District National Park. You can also look forward to using locally made toiletries from Pure Lake, made using juice from just down the road. For a special occasion, you can pre-order flowers, wine or champagne to your room, or book a bespoke package.

While staying with us you can savour a delicious meal to suit all your needs. From beef and Guinness Pie to sirloin steak, we have something for everyone. Afterwards, indulge with a triple chocolate cheesecake or sticky toffee pudding.

Enjoy a drink or two by the log fire, with a range of drinks available. We were recommended in the 2015 Michelin Pub Guide and have previously won the CAMRA ‘Pub of the Season’ award. Outside there is also a seating area to enjoy a drink in whilst the sun is shining. A weekly onsite popup pizza restaurant, Great Lakes Pizza, offers great pizza just behind the car park.
