Lake District Hotels Ltd Announce Autumn Breaks Splendour

Borrowdale (I-Newswire) September 1, 2011 - Why not escape to a quieter valley, but one that still has so much to offer and just down the road from Keswick?

There’s no shortage of things to do in the Borrowdale Valley, plenty to keep the energetic out of mischief with activities like hiking, biking canoeing and climbing. In contrast, you will also find more sedentary past times – like a stroll along crystal clear rivers and admiring the views. The pretty Borrowdale Valley has been a favourite with visitors since the railway first reached Keswick in the 1880’s.

Luxurious Lodore Falls Hotel
Travelling along the shores of Derwentwater, you can take in the scenery at Surprise View, enjoying local hospitality with lunch or afternoon tea at one of the landmark hotels. These include the luxurious Lodore Falls Hotel, built in traditional Lakeland slate and standing in 40 acres of grounds with lake frontage and a dramatic backdrop of the spectacular Lodore falls – few hotels can boast a waterfall in their gardens! Guests also enjoy the stunning views from the outdoor hot tub as pampering sessions in the Health and Beauty Salon. There are superb views from the lounge and restaurant which serves the finest of local ingredients prepared by Head Chef Mike Ward.

Traditional warm welcome from the Borrowdale Hotel
Meandering a short distance down the valley is the Borrowdale Hotel. Built in 1866 a year after the railway reached Keswick, it has been patronised by HRH prince Arthur, Prince of Wales. Today, you can still enjoy the same level of traditional hospitality but since then, it has been transformed with a refurbishment remaining sympathetic to its character and allowing personality and charm to pervade – like the 41 original room bells that hang in the hall. The latest addition to the hotel is a wine tasting cellar next to the dining room – the perfect place to marry wine and fine food under the expert guidance of a French Head Chef and a general manager who is also one of the top 60 Sommeliers in Europe.

Have you planned your autumn or festive break yet?
You really should take time to travel up this pretty valley, catching the views across to the Catbell mountain range made famous by the Tales of Miss Tiggywinkle. Beatrix Potter fell in love with it – and we are sure you will too.
