Whilst The How’s kitchen offers the full range of facilities needed to produce a gastronomic feast we realise that sometimes it’s nice to east out and let someone else do the washing up. You also need somewhere to buy your vital supplies. We recommend the following:

Within Walking Distance of The How in Patterdale

The White Lion Inn is just 300 yards from the cottage and serves food and drink all day. It has a wide ranging menu of what could best be described as good honest pub grub, as well as some fine local ales. The portions are epic and you’ll be doing well to leave still hungry! It can be busy especially during school holidays so it may be worth booking a table in advance.

Old Water View Riverside Bar is literally over the road from the cottage and offers a range of beers, wines and spirits as well as some superb views across to Place Fell and of Goldrill Beck.

The Patterdale Hotel is just around the corner from the shop and the White Lion. It is open to non-residents and has a bar and restaurant. In the summer it has a nice beer garden at the front with some stunning views and is a great place to soak up the early evening sun.

Glenridding

Glenridding is about a 15 minute walk away from the cottage. It has a good range of local shops including a gallery and gift shop, and two general stores, R&R The Corner Shop and the Glenridding Mini Market, selling a wide range of food, wine and other essentials. There is also the Glenridding Gallery which sells a great selection of local gifts, food and drink.

Catstycam Outdoor Shop is also in Glenridding selling a great range of outdoor equipment. The friendly staff will make sure you have the right stuff. Especially good for boots.

Eating and drinking wise in Glenridding you have 2 hotels, The Inn on the Lake and the Ullswater Inn, Helvellyn Country Kitchen, and the excellent Travellers Rest Pub.

Other Useful Links

There are supermarkets in Penrith, Windermere and Keswick. There are some great places to eat a short drive away including The Royal Hotel in Dockray, The Brotherswater Inn, and The Troutbeck Inn.
