ROYAL OAK HOTEL

The Royal Oak is a small family run hotel ideally situated beyond the "Jaws of Borrowdale", six miles south of Keswick. Once an 18th Century farmhouse, our hotel has been accommodating visitors and walkers for over one hundred years, and is still the perfect base from which to explore the beauty of the northern Lake District.

As traditional hotels have become increasingly rare, we take great pride in maintaining our homely atmosphere and excellent value for money. Although modernised with central heating, the thick walls, snug bar and sitting room with open fire retain the hotels cosy character. We extend a warm and friendly welcome to all our guests, to both the fit and adventurous and to those quieter and more reflective in their pursuits. And to those who wish to bring their dogs !

In the main house there are ten rooms each with individual charm. Across the courtyard our converted barn annex, Merrybreeches, provides an additional four spacious ensuite rooms each with peaceful riverside views. Every room is individual in some way, creating a variety of comfortable accommodation to suit most needs. All rooms also have tea and coffee making facilities. The hotel has a television lounge, an efficient drying room and parking for fifteen cars.

Our English breakfasts and tasty home cooked table d'hote dinners sustain even the most energetic. We take great care to select and create varied and appealing meals.

Whilst there is not normally a choice we happily cater for vegetarians and provide an alternative where desired. Packed lunches and flasks are also available. Our residential licence allows us to supply a selection of local beers, the usual spirits & liqueurs and an affordably appealing choice of wines. In the convivial atmosphere of our attractive bar, there is always someone with who to discuss the day's events or from whom to seek advice about tomorrow.
