1 / 8Lodore Falls Hotel & Spa
Keswick, Cumberland
Yes. Dogs can stay in most rooms.
A lakeside spa hotel in the Borrowdale Valley near Keswick, where you can dine with your dog in the Side Lounge or the Conservatory.
Breakfast with your dog in the Side Lounge is a fine way to start a day at Lodore Falls Hotel & Spa, a four star hotel in the Borrowdale Valley just outside Keswick, with views of Derwentwater and the Catbells Mountain Range. It is a dog friendly hotel that pairs a full spa with a welcome for dogs in most of its bedrooms.
Dogs can stay in most of the bedrooms and in some of the suites, among them Deluxe Suites in the main hotel that overlook the waterfall. Dog beds and bowls are there on request, so you needn't fill the car with extra baggage. The hotel doesn't say how many dogs can share a room, or whether a dog can be left alone in it, so raise both when you book.
Dogs aren't allowed in either restaurant or in the Lake View Bar seating area. Two spaces are set aside for you both instead: the cosy Side Lounge to the right of the hotel entrance and the bright Conservatory, where you can dine with your dog at breakfast, lunch or dinner. These are limited, so book ahead. The Falls Brasserie looks out over Derwentwater, serving afternoon tea by day and locally inspired dishes in the evening, and Mizu brings pan-Asian cooking with a Lake District twist.
The Falls Spa, for over 18s, has a thermal suite with a laconium, herbal sauna and salt steam room, and outside a 16 metre hydro pool with views over Derwentwater to Catbells. Your dog will have other plans: Cat Bells, on Wildpack's list of walks, is 1.2 miles from the hotel, and Friar’s Crag and Derwentwater Lakeshore (Keswick) is a 2.5 mile hop.
