The Greyhound Hotel in Shap is a famous Westmorland hostelry dating back to 1680. Based just 5 minutes from junction 39 of the M6, with panoramic views of the Lake District fells, it is the perfect stopping off point for travellers and walkers alike, especially those on Wainwright's famous Coast to Coast walk. The hotel has 11 en-suite rooms (6 standard, 5 deluxe), two restaurants, a large bar with an open log fire and a wide selection of wines and real ales to enjoy in lovely surroundings.

Accommodation
All of our eleven bedrooms are en-suite and have tea & coffee making facilities. Our five new deluxe bedrooms, upgraded March 2009, boast fell views, flat screen televisions and new en-suite bathrooms or shower rooms (see pictures below). 

All prices include our superb Cumbrian breakfast (which includes Bellas' world championship cumberland sausage) as well as westmorland black pudding and free-range local eggs served in the Whinfell breakfast room.

Wine & Dine
The Greyhound has an excellent reputation for food and drink throughout Cumbria. All of our dishes are freshly prepared to your order, with all of our meat coming from local farms. This enables us to have one of the lowest 'food miles' menus without compromising on quality and supporting our local producers. There is also a chef's specials board for evening meals which changes on a daily basis. The pub also has 8 traditional hand-pulled ales, a selection of lagers and spirits and a wide selection of carefully chosen wines to compliment your meal or just to enjoy in the bar.
