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. 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. Originally a farmstead dating back to probably the 15th Century, newlyweds Richard and Ann Whinfel extended their recently inherited buildings and opened The Greyhound in 1680 as a coaching inn where the “New Times" horse-drawn coaches used to stop. In the kitchen, there exists a date stone which commemorates their wedding (see below) from the 27th August 1680. In addition, there is evidence of early stables via the arched shape of the dining room window. Business must have been good as Richard and Ann extended west in 1684, and at the same time built Green Farm (on the opposite side of the main road) to supply the Inn with its fresh produce.
