Crow Park Hotel

Situated at the heart of the Lake District National Park lies the majestic Skiddaw range rising to 3,054ft. This range dominates the 13th century market town of Keswick and provides a fitting backdrop for the Hotel. The Crow Park Hotel overlooks the beautiful Hope and Crow parks which have spectacular views across Derwentwater to Catbells and the Derwent Fells. The Hotel is quietly but centrally located in Keswick, only a three minute walk from the old picturesque Market Square and the shores of Derwentwater. The highly popular, Theatre by the Lake is only a five minute walk from the hotel. Three different plays run throughout the season allowing visitors to see more than one play during a week stay in Keswick.

Enjoy the comfort of the hotel, with its 28 well furnished en-suite bedrooms, all with colour television, hair dryer and tea-coffee making facilities. Most rooms have views across the parks and fells. Some bedrooms have four poster beds. We pride ourselves on providing good fresh local produce, which is home cooked and served in our pleasant dining room each evening. We serve a hearty Cumbrian breakfast which will give you a good start to the day, whether exploring the Lake District or just taking it easy. Our residents Bar is open each evening until 11pm where we have a good selection of wines beers and spirits. We have private parking to the rear of the Hotel. This is free and can accommodate 20 cars.

A variety of places can be easily reached within a day from the Crow Park Hotel. The Western Lakes are well worth a visit and within 1 ½ hours you can see Wasdale, the deepest lake in England with the smallest church. Then drive on to the Eskdale valley and have a ride on the narrow gauge railway the "Laal Ratty", one of Lakeland's best attractions. You can return via Hardknott Pass with its Roman Fort if you like a little adventure on one of the steepest roads in Britain. Cockermouth is only 20 minutes away. It is a charming market town and is famous as the birthplace of William Wordsworth. The lovely valleys of Buttermere and Loweswater are a little farther on where you can enjoy a picnic in beautiful surroundings. The City of Carlisle is only 30 miles away with a good variety of shops or perhaps you could go round the Castle. The City has many Roman connections and a visit to the nearby Hadrians Wall is a must.
