The Swinside Inn in Newlands Valley near Keswick is temporarily closed.

This pub is owned by global giant Heineken and is one of their leased estate pubs - known as Star Taverns. The significance of 'Star' relates to a famous trademark of Scottish & Newcastle Breweries - who sold out to Heineken and Carlsberg in 2008 for £7.8 billion

A tenant has vacated the Swinside Inn and I am informed that there is yet another new tenant lined up to take on this public house with rooms following a refurbishment
