Top Keswick Hotel Reviews

Armathwaite Hall Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing property to stay at, beautiful and magical."

Keswick Country House Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Brilliant location and spotless room and main areas. The rooms are slightly dated and the hotel could use some TLC on the walls and ceilings in some locations. The bar was great as was the breakfast but we didn't use the restaurant. The grounds are extensive and lovely to see the bunnies hopping round. The location is also top notch and we will return next time we visit Keswick."
