What a great find in a beautiful village. Made to feel very welcome, friendly staff, even reserved us sofa's in the bar for us to sit and enjoy evening entertainment. We ordered fish and chips from adjoining chip shop and they delivered to our seats in the bar... brilliant. Breakfast was brilliant with a good choice giving options to amend. Would definitely recommend and hopefully will go back.
Lisa and Andy are the best hosts a couple could ask for coming for a short weekend break away from home.. we have had an amazing experience here smiling and laughing all the way to the bar..
Room 11 Is absolutely spotless and is and elegant room to say the least.
Breakfast is top notch can tell thos sausages are from the local butcher.. to die for...
Bar and lounge is a very nice chilled out space live music was amazing and had some good chats with other holiday makers!
Really you make of the place what you make of it but I really love it here and I felt the need to leave a review before we are even going home as me and my partner feel so at home here!
Thanks for a great experience Lisa and Andy!

What a lovely place, all I can say we came for a 2 night break after being in fuerteventura for Family holiday. ( I wish we came here instead ) The owners went above and beyond to make our stay special, even booking us a table For food in a lovely local restaurant. The room and bed was perfect and spotless too, the breakfast had so much choice and the evening entertainment was amazing just a perfect little gem we will be back with our family for sure
Great host, very nice and tidy rooms, perfect breakfast and great atmosphere with a love band. Prices are not to expensive and it's well worth the visit, the chippy next door even do table service into the hotel bar area. Great stay if your looking.
Just returned from a weekend at the Sun as a family of 10 celebrating a 70th birthday.Everything was perfect, the hotel is cosy and welcoming and the rooms are spotless and equipped with everything you need.the staff are so friendly and helpfull, a special mention for Lisa and Shauna who looked after us all weekend.the breakfast is excellent good quality ingredients.Really good entertainment both nights, but a special mention to Fiona who created an excellent atmosphere on the Friday night, a must see. Highly recommend the Sun , and will be going again.
What a fabulous place! The staff were so welcoming and made us feel right at home. The lovely lady who booked us in said that they had some music entertainment on and booked us a table. Ross who played acoustic guitar was amazing and welcomed requests. Andy/Andrew behind the bar was a 🌟 Thank you for being so kind. The room was so cosy and had everything we needed, including a fantastic minibar.
The breakfast was by far the best I had ever had. Warm fresh croissants and a full English that tasted amazing! Honestly I couldn't fault it! Thank you for having us xx
Andy, lisa,shauna and the rest of the staff, thank you so much for making our short weekend break perfect.. you were all so attentive. Reserving us a table every night for live music, reffiling the tassimo pods Daily , the water and the biscuits even giving us extra hot chocolate when we asked ! Honestly if youre reading this review you need to stay here! such a blast...

Only ate and drank there! So welcoming wished we were staying. We were staying a week in Hawkshead in a little cottage. Went to the Sun on the evening as they had live music. Andy the maitre d, bar manager, chef, bottle washer, pot man and dog walker was so welcoming and friendly that we came another three times and we were only there a week! Lovely friendly atmosphere.
Marc Atkinson was the live singer. He was ace!
Jenny and Andy made us so welcome! Andy was an especially good host in the evening setting aside a table for us to watch the live music and chatting with us about our recent trip.
Parking is close by and only a two minute walk from car to the Sun Inn.
Breakfast was great.
Immaculately clean room and very well presented, as was the whole place. Great bar with some quality beers including Erdinger. Andy and the staff were super and couldn't do enough for us. Excellent location in Hawkshead village and only 10-15 minutes drive from Windermere and Coniston. We'll definitely be back.
