L'Enclume

One of the most talked about restaurants with the reputation of being the finest northern restaurants. Chef Patron Simon Rogan reigns supreme for his unmatched quality and craftmanship and is noted as one of the most innovative and exciting chefs around. He specialises in using local and foraged ingredients;- mainly home grown vegetables and more recently livestock too from his seven-acre farm in the valley. Set in a peaceful medieval village away from the main tourist areas on the edge of the Lake District, this is a beautiful restaurant with rooms for a true gastro break.
