The Blue Lion Inn & Restaurant

Surrounded by the splendour of the Yorkshire Dales National Park and nestled in the heart of iconic Wensleydale, the historic 18th century Blue Lion at East Witton encapsulates the finest elements of traditional rural England.

This gorgeous Yorkshire Inn covers all bases. Step into their restaurant, with roaring log fires, a traditionally rustic interior and chalkboards with the daily specials, you’ll be charmed instantly.

Showcasing the best Yorkshire produce to be found, the Blue Lion’s seasonal menu is bound to impress. Dishes include their famous twice-baked Wensleydale cheese soufflé with a chive cream sauce or roast grouse with all the trimmings.

As the Good Pub Guide’s three-time ‘Dining Pub of the Year’ winners, you’ll be spoilt for choice – just make sure you leave room for dessert.

If you’re just popping in for a drink, you won’t be disappointed by their real ale bar, with its cosy atmosphere, large, sweeping settles and sturdy oak tables, providing an English pub setting for you to sit back and enjoy a pint or two.

They also have an extensive and impressive wine list, if that’s more your thing. Or, if you are staying for a longer weekend exploring the Yorkshire Dales, they have fifteen comfortable rooms to choose from, a few of which are dog-friendly too.
