Pretty much bang on the route between Cockermouth and Keswick, this is a great location close to Bassenthwaite Lake and in the middle of the Fells. It's ideal for groups up to 40, offering en-suite double rooms and apartment-style suites for up to 8 adults. You can unwind in the spa after a day in the saddle and eat in the bar or bistro. Great seasonal local ingredients imaginatively cooked by an experienced kitchen. Hot tubs and views of Skiddaw, Sale Fell and Ling Fell. Ideal for back-up teams wishing to chill out.
