Imposing yet welcoming this historic hotel provides an oasis in the centre of a bustling market town and whatever the season, Keswick in its picturesque glory enjoys an atmosphere all of its own.

A warm welcome is guaranteed in this family owned hotel, where traditional elegance and style come together with established quality and service to create a truly premier hotel.

A space to suit, the choice Sit back and relax The Skiddaw’s lounge bar is a comfortable place to relax and enjoy superb food and a pint of local ale. The glow of the cosy log fire in winter offers a warm welcome to all those passing through the hotel.

Residents can also enjoy the calm of the Latrigg Lounge for a bit of peace from the hustle and bustle of the town.

It’s the perfect place to unwind and read the papers, make use of the free Wi-Fi connection, and plan the day ahead.
