A preserved steam branch line running three and a half miles up the Leven valley from Haverthwaite through Newby Bridge to the pier at Lakeside, where the trains connect with the Windermere steamers. The railway states that the station welcomes dogs and that they ride the train free of charge, which makes it one of the cheapest days out in the district with a dog. The tea room at Haverthwaite station is open daily from nine until half four with last food orders at three. The 2026 steam season runs from 28 March to 1 November.
Photos, a sample menu and prices, any room details and the venue’s own house rules will appear here once the business claims this listing. Until then, what you see above is what we’ve checked and verified ourselves.
Claiming lets you add all of that and reply to reviews in your own name, right underneath them. £12.99 a month, no contract, and it never changes the verdict — the stamp stays ours.
Nobody has written one for Lakeside and Haverthwaite Railway. If you have been with the dog, you would be the first — and the first review is the one everybody reads.
