Sharrow Bay Country House, Country house hotel and restaurant on Ullswater Lake, Cumbria, England

Located on the eastern shore of Ullswater, Sharrow Bay Country House presents lake views and traditional British cuisine in a historic mansion setting.

Francis Coulson established Sharrow Bay in 1948, introducing the concept of country house hotels to Britain and operating it until the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020.

The restaurant earned recognition for creating the sticky toffee pudding and maintained a Michelin star from 2008 to 2012, showcasing British culinary excellence.

The property features multiple guest rooms equipped with modern amenities while maintaining direct access to Lake District activities such as hiking and boating.

The owners of Michelin-starred Askham Hall acquired the lease in 2024 and plan to reopen this historic establishment as a hotel and restaurant in 2025.
