Borrowdale
is amongst the most dramatic and
picturesque of the central Lakeland
valleys. It stretches from Keswick
in the north to Seatoller at the
foot of Honister Pass in the high
central fells of the Lake District.
There are a large
number of delightful low level
walks in the woodlands, along the
river, around the lake and on
the lower fellsides surrounding
the valley. There is also easy
access to the dramatic central
fells and the Lakeland giants of
Scafell, Great Gable, Pillar and
Skiddaw. Borrowdale is an ideal
location for a walking holiday,
whatever your experience and fitness.
Our accommodation. The
larger white building in the top left picture is a Victorian
guest house
situated in a secluded location
within its own grounds. It is near
the village of Grange at the southern
end of Lake Derwentwater. Peace
and quiet are guaranteed, whilst
the slightly elevated position
means there are fine views over
the valley and surrounding hills.
There are two comfortable lounges
both with log fires, available
throughout the day.
All the guest
rooms have ensuite facilities,
tea and coffee making facilities
and other accessories as standard.
The garden can be enjoyed on sunny
days and there is parking for those
travelling in their own car. Many
walks can be taken directly
from the hotel. If you would like
to explore the Lake District further,
there is a good bus service with
a bus stop near the hotel. |
