Autumn News from the Borrowdale Hotel


A long time ago the Borrowdale Hotel was a seasonal hotel which closed for the winter. Today, times may have changed but there’s a few things that you can still expect to see during a stay with us; a warm welcome, exceptional service and delicious cuisine.

At this time of year, as Autumn kicks in, there’s nothing better than a glowing fire, a cosy bedroom and somewhere to stash the walking boots. The Borrowdale Hotel makes the perfect hideaway, so wrap up warm and come and relax.

Our favourite Autumn walk 

See the leaves turn from green to the colours of autumn as you walk from Grange, along the river Derwent and up to Millican Dalton’s Cave and Castle Crag. Walk down to Rosthwaite and get the bus back to the hotel.

Lake District awarded Unesco World Heritage status

Earlier this year the Lake District became a World Heritage Site, joining iconic locations such as the Grand Canyon, the Taj Mahal, the Great Barrier Reef and Machu Picchu.  With its famous landscape of mountains, valleys and lakes, which are visited by around 18 million people every year, the Lake District National Park was one of 33 sites around the world to be considered, and was praised for its beauty, farming and the inspiration it has provided to artists and writers. So what are you waiting for, come and pay us a visit and see the beauty of the Lakes for yourself.
