Great local pub that served a home cooked meal. Booking essential especially at the weekend. Food was fantastic and did not have to wait long. Staff very friendly. Dog as well. Booked a table ( advisable) Our food was wonderful ( 2 belly pork, 1 fish n' chips and 1 pie). All absolutely delicious. We had a short wait but it was 100% worth it. We were very impressed and will be back when next in the area! Wheatsheaf Inn and Campsite Lorton Nestled in the picturesque village of Lorton, the Wheatsheaf Pub and Campsite offers visitors an authentic Cumbrian experience, combining traditional pub charm with the serenity of the surrounding countryside. The pub itself is a testament to classic British hospitality. Patrons are welcomed by a warm and inviting atmosphere, complemented by a selection of locally sourced ales and a menu that showcases hearty, traditional fare. The staff's friendliness and attentiveness enhance the overall dining experience, making guests feel right at home. The campsite, situated adjacent to the pub, provides campers with convenient access to both the establishment's amenities and the natural beauty of the area. The proximity to local walking trails and scenic spots makes it an ideal base for outdoor enthusiasts looking to explore the Lake District. However, while the campsite offers a rustic charm, there is room for improvement in its facilities. Enhanced shower and restroom amenities would significantly elevate the camping experience, ensuring guests have a more comfortable stay. Investing in these upgrades would align the campsite's offerings with the high standards set by the pub. In conclusion, the Wheatsheaf Pub and Campsite in Lorton provides a delightful blend of traditional pub culture and natural beauty. With some enhancements to the campsite facilities, it has the potential to become a premier destination for travelers seeking both comfort and adventure in the heart of Cumbria. This is one of my favourite local campsites . I recently went to a van meet here for the weekend. the site is clean and well maintained . And showers are available. The view from the site is lovely. And added bonus is the pub on site that serves food and even takeouts . The pub had a great atmosphere and the staff were very . I would highly recommend here . My first visit in my 4 night stay in the lake district was a monday night. Walked in to find the pub empty. Dont let that put you off. Decided to stay and order food. Wow. I had the pork belly, on a bed of black pudding in a stilton and chorizo sauce. Flavours were amazing and portion size plentifull. All staff were and service was great. I guess monday is their quiet day. I returned tuesday to find the place rammed. The staff were just as in a busy environment and the food as great as when quiet. A great experiance all round. Popped in for a quick bite to eat this evening to round off our holiday - warm welcome, fantastic food, good selection of beers etc. Informed of allergies and the team went out of their way to swap elements of the dish which I find very rare when we go out to eat! All the staff were lovely even those who didn’t serve us directly. Baby in tow was welcomed and accommodated. Have camped and eaten here a couple of years ago and remember still had great service and food then too. Brilliant, pub. Farmhouse burger is still enormous - yum. Great pub which has its own campsite which is beautifully maintained. We stayed with our camper group on our annual meet up with Crafty Builders. We always come to THE weatshelf because it's perfect for us. Highly recommended. We ate at The Wheatsheaf three times during our stay in Lorton this May — and every time was superb. The food is outstanding; my husband's favourite is Shredded Shepherd, which is slow-cooked lamb and black pudding, and I love their Sunday roast! The pub is cosy, the staff are really friendly, and the service is faultless. We always love a meal here after a walk on the fells — it’s the perfect way to round off the day. It’s part of our holiday tradition, and we always book beforehand as it gets really busy. Highly recommend.
