Sundays at The Giddy Goose don't really have an end time.

Start with a proper roast in the restaurant, then take your coffee (or something stronger) through to the bar, find a spot by the wood burner and let the afternoon slow right down. Nobody's going to hurry you, and the goose in the bow tie has seen far longer lunches than yours.
It's the kind of Sunday that makes Monday feel a long way off. Bring the family, bring the dog, and leave room for pudding.

The clocks have gone back, which means the evenings now start properly early.

At The Ryebeck, that's no bad thing. Watch the light drop over Windermere from the terrace, then head inside for dinner at The Giddy Goose. Finish with sticky toffee pudding. Climb the stairs to bed rather than getting back in the car.

Dogs are welcome too, so the whole household can come.

November Midweek Escape

Our November Midweek Escape is now live, for Monday to Thursday stays throughout the month.

Dinner, bed and breakfast, from £140 for two
One night's stay, a two-course dinner each at The Giddy Goose, and breakfast in the morning.

Premium package, £160 for two
One night's stay, a three-course dinner each, a bottle of w**e to share, and breakfast in the morning. Twenty pounds more for pudding and a bottle of w**e is, frankly, the easiest decision you'll make all month.

Prices are per night and subject to availability, and midweek rooms at this rate won't hang around.

Friday the 13th. A country hotel. A dinner party where not everyone makes it to dessert.

We couldn't have picked a better date if we tried. On Friday 13th November, Sudden Death Theatre Company take over The Ryebeck for a Murder Mystery Night. The suspects are among you, the clues arrive between courses, and the only thing you can trust is the sticky toffee pudding.

Come for dinner and the mystery, or book a room and stay over. Sleeping here after a murder is entirely your call.

Spaces are limited, so book early.

Wrap up warm. Bring the family. We'll light the fire.

Join us for Bonfire Night at The Ryebeck on Friday 6th November from 5.30pm. Expect a proper bonfire, fireworks over the gardens, and something hot from Derek's kitchen to keep your hands warm.

Entry is free. Food and drinks are available to buy on the night, so come hungry.

Fancy making a night of it? Book a room and skip the drive home.

Come for Windermere. Leave with a ticket to somewhere else.

From now until Christmas, every guest staying one night or more at The Ryebeck is entered into our weekly draw for a European mini break. We choose the city. You choose how long you stay: one, two or three nights

So that autumn weekend away you've been meaning to book? It now comes with a bonus. Walk the fells, have dinner at The Giddy Goose, sleep well, and you might be planning your next escape before you've even checked out.

A new winner is drawn every Monday. T&Cs apply.

Monday has come around again, and so has another winner.

Congratulations to Luke McDermott, the third winner of our 12 Weeks of Christmas giveaway. Luke stayed with us last week with his partner Ashley, and the two of them are now swapping Windermere for somewhere in Europe. We'll reveal where they're going soon.

That's three mini breaks given away, with nine still to go. Every guest who stays with us for at least one night before Christmas is entered into our weekly draw automatically. There's nothing to fill in, nothing to share, and no catch.

The next winner will be drawn on Monday 2nd November.

Muddy boots welcome. So is the dog.

Autumn at The Ryebeck means crisp mornings, copper woodland and plenty of near by walks for a view over Windermere. Back by lunchtime, feet up by the fire, dinner sorted downstairs at The Giddy Goose Restaurant and Bar

Autumn weekends are booking up, so grab your dates while the leaves are at their best.

Christmas Day at The Ryebeck is down to its last two sittings: 12pm and 6pm.

Here's what's waiting. Fizz and an amuse bouche as you arrive, with mocktails and chef's snacks for the younger ones. Then a starter choice that includes a lobster arancini lollypop and a slow confit partridge scotch egg with mulled pear.

The main event is our overnight turkey with Derek's secret Giddy Goose apricot and cranberry stuffing, the roast potatoes people talk about, and a gravy that's been seven days in the making. Or go for 10-hour braised Jacob's ladder wagyu, herb crusted halibut, or a cranberry and pistachio vegetarian rag pudding.

And to finish, a Christmas pudding slab with more brandy sauce than strictly necessary. We stand by that decision.

Tables are yours for two and a half hours, but the celebrations don't have to stop there. There's plenty of room to settle into the bar afterwards for another drink by the fire. And if you'd rather not think about the drive home, we have rooms available so you can make a night of it and wake up to the Lake District on Boxing Day.

Adults £120 Children £60

Once these two sittings are gone, Christmas Day is full.
