Could not love this place more. Keswick overall was incredible and staying here was just the icing on the cake. The room was so nice and the view from it was unbeatable. So sad to have only stayed one night. We would come back in a heartbeat.

As an American on a 2 week family vacation all over England, this was our favorite place we stayed! The staff was outstanding. Family operated and everyone was fabulous. The waitstaff, bartenders, cooks, were all super friendly and helpful. Rooms and beds were all very comfortable and clean. All rooms have been remodeled in the last couple of years. The location and the views from the patio were incredible. Food was great. We had 3 rooms booked for 5 people total. Good value. We wish we could have stayed a few more days.

This is the place to unwind, take in the amazing 360 scenery. Theres loads to do, walks, hike, rent bikes, kayaks, paddle boarding or just sit and watch the world go by. I ate at the restaurant Id booked The Glaramara hotel, they prepare exceptional food, my time was taken with hikes up Herons Pike, Scafell Pike and a good long walk around the Derwent lake. It’s a place that asks for your full attention and rewards it with a deep sense of peace. For me, Borrowdale isn't about what you do, but about what you feel—a sense of solitude and connection to something wild and enduring. I left feeling quite emotional and cant wait to return.

Ideal for fell walking at all levels.

Ideal for fell walking at all levels. Some great hikes in the area such as Glaramara and Dale Head. Buy the Cicerone guide to find out more. One piece of advice is to do your research thoroughly before setting out. Take a map and compass, or have your route all planned on a GPS app. Some of the paths suddenly fork and if you take the wrong one, you can waste a lot of time and effort getting back on track. They generally don't have helpful fingerposts in the Lake District.

It's the most stunning location, but so hammered by tourists. And, sadly, the river has been controlled and canalised, especially on stretch from Seatoller to Seathwaite. The whole area needs to be declared an SSSi and farmers compensated accordingly. Those woods are just clinging on but are vulnerable to climate change. There's an argument for making it less car friendly, perhaps introduce a toll charge or at least make sure those buses turn up every time (there were none between 12 and 1pm, anywhere in the valley)

One of the most beautiful valleys in Lakeland with walks for all types. Don’t miss Castle Crag a magical baby fell right in the Jaws of Barrowdale, take a circular walk to the village of Watendlath, and enjoy good pubs or tea rooms in Grange, Rosthwaite, Stonethwaite and Seatoller. The newly opened Yew Tree pub in the latter is a welcome stop on the Coast to Coast national trail. Explore Barrowdale, Honister Slate Mine and Buttermere on the local bus rambler. For the more ambitious start your climb up Scafell Pike from Seathwaite
