Local town Cockermouth
Keswick is a neighbouring lake district town, much busier and much more touristy than Cockermouth. Here you can hire rowing boats or board the launch to sail Derwent Water. Most eateries in Keswick tend to be dog friendly.

Complimentary Spa Access
We hold a corporate membership for the spa facilities at nearby Armathwaite Hall Hotel. During every stay booked at our properties, we offer guests 1x use of the passes to gain access to the spa. What better way to recover aching muscles after long walks in the lakes and on the fells, than in the outdoor infinity style hot tub or indoor thermal suite!
