Property details
- A stand-out stay: Nestled between Keswick and the southern shores of Derwentwater, the Tripadvisor Certificate of Excellence-awarded Borrowdale Hotel offers comfortable rooms and beautiful views within a property that dates back to 1866, with many period features still intact and bucket-loads of warm, rural charm.
- Distinguished dining: Alongside a walk-in wine cellar stocked with vintage bottles, The Borrowdale Hotel houses an elegant restaurant serving superb British dishes made using fresh, local ingredients. Unsurprisingly, the succulent Sunday roasts and afternoon teas with scones and clotted cream are a popular indulgence.
- Relax in style: You'll find plenty of places to unwind here, including the lounge with its burning log fires, a conservatory and scenic gardens, but the bedrooms are where you'll want to while the hours away. Whether you prefer the classic elegance of traditionally-styled rooms or the fresh feel of more modern spaces, each room is designed to be a cosy haven – perfect for relaxing after a day exploring the beauty of the Lakes.
How to get there
The hotel sits in the pretty region of Keswick, just a 10-minute drive from the town's centre. It's located south of Derwentwater lake and is perfectly placed for both lowland activity and hill-walking. On-site parking is available, and given the rural nature of the Lake District, we'd recommend coming via your own car.
Entry requirements
The passport, visa and health requirements at the time of booking can be viewed on the Foreign and Commonwealth Office website for UK citizens, and on the Department of Foreign Affairs website for IE citizens. It is your responsibility to ensure that you and all members of your party are in possession of all necessary travel and health documents, and in compliance with any other immigration/entry requirements before you travel, including whether your passport must be machine readable or which visas/waivers may be required for entry, such as ESTA for USA travel and/or ETIAS for EU travel. Please also be sure to check the validity of your passport and allow up to 10 weeks for passport renewals.

Location and what's nearby
Borrowdale, Keswick, Cumbria CA12 5UY
Visit the nearby centre of Keswick to find a number of market town shops, restaurants and pubs, as well as the quirky Cumberland Pencil Museum. Just out of town is Castlerigg Stone Circle, dating back to Neolithic times, and if you fancy scaling dizzying heights for mesmerising views, take a challenging climb up Skiddaw mountain. Another must-do is a boat trip on Derwentwater itself – a truly memorable experience.
