Great place to visit with a good choice of eateries and pubs. The bookshop is amazing and is a lovely place to browse and have a coffee.
Good bus links with Penrith Station if you are using public transport. Fantastic walks from the doorstep, including the Eamont and Ullswater Ways.

Beautiful lake.
Beautiful lake. We enjoyed the boat trip from the pier which allowed us to have nice family walks in the gorgeous Lake District. We also appreciated the kids-friendly local pubs and good outdoor spaces.
Castles and the Hadrian wall are also nearby. We loved our bank holiday week end in Pooley Bridge.

Lovely walks in the surrounding area, especially by the lake...
Lovely walks in the surrounding area, especially by the lake. Well stocked bookshop with lovely adjoining coffee shop. We travelled there by car, but there seems to be a good bus service, especially to Penrith and also saw one service bus going to Windermere.

Very busy but beautiful spot.
Very busy but beautiful spot. The views along Ullswater if you walk towards Howtown are fabulous…….i
More charm and less commercial than Windermere.
Once the crowds disappear or before they arrive is great
Except the Sun Inn the pubs are really food places not bars……
The Manor was in a beautiful location and private off the road! It is literally a 2 minute drive or 15 minute walk from Pooley Bridge. Breakfast is very well prepared and presented in a themed queen ann style Breakfast room. Dogs are welcome and the owner Ailsa and her staff couldn't of done more for us. Will definitely be staying again in a hurry. Rooms are very well kept and clean and there is a kitchen that is free for guests to prepare there own meals and keep food fresh aswell as milk provided.
Our stay at the Pooley Bridge Inn was pleasant and comfortable. I made a request for my partners and I anniversary which was accepted ( a beautiful and personalized desert was brought to our table ) along with the rest of the tasty food and drinks we ordered. The room itself was clean and modern, great location and attentive staff.
The breakfast that was included with our stay was beautifully done! Thank you for our stay :)
Amazing old school inn location where we spent some time while hiking Lake District - inn was full of tradition, very nice people that did everything to help us have a great time there and that was the most amazing part - whatever problem we had, they solved it with a smile. Food and restaurant were also great and it is just a great place that you can use for you travels or vacation.
We were self catering but took the scenic little walk to Pooley Bridge one morning.
The accommodation in the cottages is first class and spacious.
The location is perfect - pretty, great scenery all around and close to Lake Ullswater and all of the amenities and conveniences of the lovely Pooley Bridge village.
Fabulous breakfast good car park but busy at times. Make sure you book early to secure a preferred evening meal time; its popular for a reason. A range of Ales and decent menu. Large comfy bed and a nice bathroom with good shower and well equipped with various drinks, shortbread and fresh milk!
Cheerful place in a small town in the edge of the lake district. One gets the feel of being kind of in the North Woods.
Comfortable, friendly. Clean, Quiet, Easy checkin checkout, Nice dinner and included breakfast. Real small English pub atmosphere. Free safe parking. Easy to find.
Beautiful little cottage, perfect for a couple wanting a quiet retreat close to the amenties of Pooley Bridge with its pubs, cafes and shops. We loved the view from the breakfast table, lambs skipping in the field at the back of the cottage and we loved the small log burner.
An ideal place to stay as a couple. Everything you need all in one place. The dogs were as welcome as we were. The log burner was a definite hit. The countryside and walks at the doorstep. With Pooley Bridge a few mins walk away. What more could we ask for ?
Amazing evening meal - we had the tasting menu. Comfortable and quiet room with nice toiletries, and polite and helpful staff. Free parking either adjacent to the hotel or nearby, and conveniently located in Pooley Bridge - a bit of an entrance to the Lakes
It was our first visit to Pooley Bridge. we stayed at the Crown Inn. We stayed in room 18 on the top floor, which was beautiful and very comfortable. Breakfast was very nice all the staff were lovely good value for money definitely be going back there 👍
The rooms were clean, bathrooms lovely and beds comfy. The view from the hotel is great and although not dedicated parking it was easy to find appropriate parking. Breakfast was tasty and good choices.
The food was excellent and the staff were just terrific.
The rooms were all that was needed.
The position in Pooley Bridge was great and a good locality for exploring The Lakes
