This week our Trader of the Week is a hotel that has recently come under new management and is proving to be very popular. 

The Parkside Hotel at Cleator Moor offers pubgoers everything they'll want to enjoy a great day, or night, out. 

The hotel has recently released a new menu which includes a lunchtime and evening section. 

Cold and hot sandwiches are served in the afternoon, and there are a range of main courses and also starters, small plates, salads, and slides. Children and babies are also catered for. 

Parkside has also recently set up its own football team, it's open age and has a range of other activities and events on offer. 

In the couple of months it has been open they have expanded their services to cater for christenings and funerals. 

The pub also offers bottomless brunches once a month along with live entertainment and themed pub quizzes.

Dean Fearon, who manages The Parkside Hotel, said: "We're a hotel, we cater to coast-to-coast walkers and have space for guests in our rooms. 

"We do food, drink, and entertainment and have been open for eight weeks so far, it's all going good and we seem to be doing very well. 

"We've just started our own football team which people might have heard about and have joined the Egremont and Workington Sunday League. We cater to all adult ages. 

"We've done a quiz night which was themed around Max and Paddy's Road to Nowhere and the next one is going to be Only Fools and Horses themed. 

"We also have christenings, baby showers so we cater for everything really and have started doing the bottomless brunches every four weeks. 

"Every Friday or Saturday we'll have a live band or singer performing."

Over the summer customers have been able to sit out in the beer garden and enjoy views of the countryside over Dent Fell. 

Dean explained that the pub is busy all through the week but they see a particular spike in custom over the weekends.
