My husband and I have eaten here many times and have enjoyed every meal. When we heard about the New Year's Eve party we invited 4 of our friends from Scotland to join us and we all stayed over night.
The party was excellent it was a karaoke and everyone joined in to make a brilliant atmosphere. 
The staff were excellent as always and very accommodating.  We stayed in a beautiful bedroom which was beautifully decorated, warm and spotless. Breakfast next morning was ordered the night before and cooked to perfection. 
All in all a brilliant night in a fabulous friendly pub enjoyed by all 6 of us.
Would not hesitate to stay or eat here again.
Highly recommended. 

Fabulous New year 

This was a stay that exceeded my expectations. We had a one night stopover to break up a long drive and booked fairly last minute.
The pub is in a beautiful little village, situated well on a quiet road with a garden to the back and a pretty road to the front.
We were welcomed on arrival and given the key to our room upstairs. Room 1 was comfortable and looked over the front of the property to the road. It contained an exceptionally comfortable bed and also (important to me) a shower with good water pressure and plenty of hot water (I hate a disappointing shower!). Also tea and coffee facilities and a TV if needed.
The food downstairs was good, breakfast was excellent.
All staff were friendly and helpful.
This is a strong recommend for a spot to break a journey (very good access to the M6 but far enough to be quiet at night) but also for a weekend away as it is a beautiful part of the world. The lakes are close too.
I would definitely return should we be in the area again.

A really nice stay

Wow! What a find. Lovely atmosphere, staff, food, rooms and facilities. Rooms spotless and everything we needed in there. Staff could not do enough to for us, all so lovely. Will defiantly be visiting again. Also dog friendly so will bring our pooch next time.

Hidden treasure

Really lovely place to stay.  Very nicely furnished bedroom  with  lovely en suite. Super food and friendly, obliging staff.  Dogs are made welcome and add to the ambience without being intrusive.  We’ll definitely be back.

A lovely venue for a relaxing break.

Another perfect stay at the Dukes Head Inn!!! This was our 3rd time visiting with our dogs and it was faultless just like our previous stays. We stayed in rooms 1 & 6 which are beautifully decorated, spacious and relaxing. Tom & Stephen are the perfect hosts as are all the other staff. Nothing is too much trouble and they go out of their way to ensure you have the best time. The food is amazing. Definately recommend the Sunday lunch! Great bar with wide selection of drinks and there is a beautiful garden at the back where you can relax and chill in the sunshine. The small village is Armathwaite is beautiful and it has a convenient train station 10 mins walk from the pub which is on the Carlisle to Settle train line.  Cannot recommend this place more, it is first class! We cannot wait to return!

The perfect stay!

Everybody was Very friendly the service most welcoming.The food was fantastic very good and very filling. The chocolate pudding was superb. We went for our birthdays really enjoyed it. We took the dog there must have been ten dogs there they were all wonderfully behaved. A pleasure to be there it was a lovely relaxing visit we will defiantly be back many thanks to all the staff for making us so welcome thank you

Excellent friendly service superb food

Fantastic Sunday lunch, food was superb and staff really friendly. We called in on the off chance of a table for Sunday lunch as we were walking in the area with our small dog. We were surprised to find the restaurant almost empty and it’s difficult to understand why as the food and service are excellent. The furnishings and facilities within Dukes Head Inn restaurant are top notch and we can’t thank the team enough for a lovely meal and it was great that well behaved dogs are allowed in one half of the excellent restaurant. We would highly recommend the Dukes Head Inn and I’m still trying to understand why people were not queuing to get in! I guess we just arrived at the right time, we’ll definitely be back.

Superb Sunday lunch

We love this place. Staff were all friendly and helpful. Room was lovely and cosy. We had dinner which was fish and chips. Breakfast was also lovely,. Very dog friendly which 
was great! Walks around the area are beautiful. The free and secure parking is a bonus. We will definitely return.

Return visit, didn’t disappoint..

We stayed for one night in the Dukes Head on our way down to Yorkshire – it was an ideal stopping off point for my wife, myself and small dog. The hotel is in the sleepy but picturesque village of Armathwaite near Penrith in Cumbria. It would be a great base for a visit to the Lake District and is handy to the M6. We were very impressed with the hotel and the friendliness of the staff. Our room was tastefully decorated and very comfortable, one of six bedrooms in the hotel. It was really quiet at night as the village is away from any main roads and very tranquil. Our dog was welcome in the restaurant and bar areas – we chose to eat in the bar and had a lovely dinner from a varied menu featuring local produce. There was also a good selection of beers and a nice wine was recommended to us by the staff. We always find that you meet like minded people in dog friendly hotels and we had a very pleasant evening in the company of another couple who also had a dog with them. Breakfast was great also and well presented. There are lovely river walks in the village and it is a truly rural setting. We would happily return to the Dukes Head and would highly recommend it.

Lovely friendly Inn

We stayed here for one night on our way south.  We were pleasantly surprised when we were shown to our room.  It had been recently renovated including the bathroom with its excellent shower.  The room was nicely appointed at a high standard.

It is located on the main street of this village and therefore there is quite a bit of traffic.  However, it died down late evening and therefore it was quiet during the night.

We had a typical pub style dinner in the large garden as it was a very pleasant evening.  Food and drinks had to be ordered at the bar.  The food was brought to us outside.
