Already owned and run Lake District Hotels Limited are Inn on the Lake at Ullswater, Lodore Falls Hotel at Derwentwater, George Hotel at Penrith and Skiddaw Hotel and Kings Arms Hotel both Keswick. The Borrowdale Hotel is now being run fully by Lake District Hotels and they are said to be very pleased at being able to have the hotel within their group in time for the Easter holidays.
Nestled at the foot of Shepherd's Crag in the beautiful valley of Borrowdale, this hotel has a totally unique atmosphere enveloping the visitors from the moment they arrive. Warm and welcoming fires in Winter and cool drinks and strawberry teas on the lawns in the Summer served with a smile.
Built in 1866 the Borrowdale Hotel has an interesting history and many charming artifacts adorning the walls, such as old hotel prints, Victorian coffee grinders and silver salvers, plate warmers and brass bedpans - not forgetting the original 41 room bells, which, although no longer working, are still proudly displayed outside the reception area.
During the day the lounge bar and conservatory are open for light lunches and afternoon teas and in the evening a splendid 6 course silver service dinner can be enjoyed in the restaurant with coffee and mints served in the lounges.
The 36 cosy bedrooms all have TV, telephone and hospitality tray and whether you are looking to book a romantic break staying in one of the 4 poster bedrooms, a family holiday with the children, an energetic break walking with your dog or just of couple of relaxing days, there are rooms to suit all.
If you are arriving or leaving on a Sunday make sure not to miss the famous Sunday lunch - it is well worth trying, but remember to book your table well in advance, as it is particular popular with both locals and residents.
