Borrowdale Gates Country House Hotel(Keswick, Cumbria, UK) |

|
Borrowdale Gates is surely one of the most beautifully located hotels in the Lake District. Surrounded by first-class fellwalking country and secluded in two acres of peaceful, wooded grounds, this Victorian country house is a picture frame for the beauty of the Borrowdale Valley, celebrated by Wainwright as '...the loveliest square mile in Lakeland.' The cosy bar and beamed lounge with its wood-burning stove look onto the gardens and the valley beyond. Each of the recently refurbished bedrooms is individually designed for a blissful night's sleep, and each comes with picture-perfect views to wake up to, whether dusted by wintry frost or glowing with sunshine. The dining room looks onto a breathtaking panorama of green pastures where Herdwick sheep graze, up to the slopes of Castle Crag, High Spy, Grange Fell and distant Glaramara. The menus celebrate the Lake District's glorious food heritage - contemporary, country house cooking with a lightness of touch that is wonderfully satisfying. It's a wonderful place to linger over dinner, before curling up with a brandy beside the log fire. A real home-from-home, Borrowdale Gates has a magnificent backdrop in Catbells, home of Beatrix Potter's Mrs. Tiggy-winkle. Also nearby are many of the UK's most stunning walking trails, as well as the peaceful shores of Derwentwater and the many attractions of Keswick.
