Windermere Hotels - Lake District

The Wild Boar Inn, Grill & Smokehouse

Traditional 4 star Inn in tranquil surroundings close to the shores of Lake Windermere

We are delighted to welcome you to The Wild Boar Inn, Grill & Smokehouse. A great new dining experience with our all new Grill & Smokehouse, and a wide range of bedroom accommodation from comfortable classic country style through to sheer indulgent luxury. We are based in the heart of the Lake District, just minutes away from Windermere railway station.

Set in the ancient beauty of the Gilpin Valley, this Coaching Inn takes its name from the local legend of Sir Richard de Gilpin who bravely fought and killed a particularly ferocious wild boar close by. However its fame these days has much more to do with the warmest of welcomes and standard of service complemented by our new, individually designed rooms, and the new Grill & Smokehouse and open kitchen offering more theatre to the overall dining experience. Head Chef Marc Sanders will proudly continue his commitment to the best locally produced seasonal ingredients. Indeed The Wild Boar has a very special quality that is often best experienced whilst relaxing by the open fire.

Bedrooms at the Boar

The bedrooms in The Wild Boar range from classic to luxury with recently refurbished individually designed feature and luxury grade rooms, that have features such as log burning stoves and copper baths. Perfect if you are looking to treat yourself to something a bit special. We also still have a number of Classic rooms which have not been refurbished but offer all the standard comforts you would expect from a country inn.

Out & About in Windermere and the Lake District

If you want to unwind in tranquil surroundings, for a special occasion, a weekend break or just to spend some time in this beautiful location - this is the place to stay. Secluded, yet close by Windermere village and Bowness Bay to give you the best of both worlds. With Windermere Golf Club virtually on our doorstep and free membership of the Low Wood Leisure Club as well as a host of local attractions and walks and the opportunity to try clay pigeon shooting, archery or learning to smoke (behind the bike sheds!) in our own woodland.

Whisky Club

The Wild Boar hosts monthly whisky nights allowing you to sample some of the different malts available at the Inn. The evenings are hosted by the team at the Wild Boar with a guest host from a whisky distillery every quarter.

The idea of the whisky nights is to give you the chance to try one or two of the whiskies available at the Inn, along with a little information about the whiskies being sampled, and to perhaps find a new favourite whisky along the way. We will also be serving a light snack during the evening including a selection of sandwiches and our home made triple cooked chips.

Our forthcoming Tuesday evening meetings will be hosted on the following dates,

12th June |  10th Jully |   14th August |   11th September

Our next meeting in June will be hosted by an ambassador from a whisky distillery and the team at the Wild Boar. The night will include 3 malts from the chosen distillery.

In the past we have enjoyed some great evenings and look forward to many more.
Please contact the Inn for full details.

Smoking Courses

The Wild Boar is working with smoking experts Smoky Jo’s to provide one day courses, where guests will learn how to hot and cold smoke their own food.

Those taking part in the courses will get the chance to smoke a range of different foods such as chicken, salmon, sausages and cheeses. As well as using the Inns own purpose built smokehouse the Smoky Jo’s team will show how tremendous results can be achieved at home – on a stove, converted bbq, wardrobe or filing cabinet!
