The Cottage in the Wood


The Cottage in the Wood Country House Hotel and restaurant is a former 17th Century coaching inn situated in the heart of the Whinlatter forest near Keswick, in one of the most dramatic and unspoilt areas of the Lake District national park. All the bedrooms reflect a cottage style ambience with pretty decor and antique furniture. The Lake District restaurant offers a menu based upon regional and continental dishes to reflect fresh seasonal produce. Everything is homemade including the ice creams and bread baked fresh every day. There are magnificent views towards Skiddaw and Keswick over Whinlatter forest park and you can relax with a pre-dinner drink in the bar before enjoying your meal in the restaurant.
