Description

For lovers of tranquility, as well as the beauty of the English Lake District, a holiday base amongst the quieter Northern Fells is now regarded by many as essential. Thornthwaite is peaceful and scenic, away from the busy and crowded areas, yet within easy access of the Central and Southern lakes . . .

Thwaite Howe - a country house built of local stone in the 1860s, is situated in its own attractive acre of grounds. Thornthwaite Forest provides a stunning backdrop to the rear, and the house stands in an elevated position looking across the Derwent Valley to the magnificent mountain views of Skiddaw, Blencathra and Helvellyn.

A hearty Cumbrian Breakfast can be enjoyed in our comfortable restaurant which enjoys panoramic views of the surrounding Lakeland Fells.

The house is centrally heated throughout, there is an efficient drying room, and in inclement weather you will find a fire blazing in the lounge.

All eight bedrooms have en-suite bathrooms, colour television, radio, tea and coffee making facilities, hairdryers and radiator thermostats to control the room temperature.

Local Attractions

Thwaite Howe provides an excellent centre from which to explore the whole of the Lake District, any part of which is easily accessible by car in the day. Indeed the attractive market towns of Keswick and Cockermouth are just three and nine miles away respectively. Ambleside in the heart of Lakeland and Penrith (where access is gained to the M6 motorway, junction 40) are both about half and hour's drive from the Hotel. For the walker, Skiddaw, Helvellyn and Blencathra are all nearby. Thornthwaite Forest lies immediately behind the house, so guests will find forest trails and walks nearby, where a wide variety of birds and other wildlife, including deer, can be seen. Red Squirrels invite themselves to dinner from the bird tables on most days, along with the woodpeckers, nuthatches, goldcrest and numerous other bird species. Activities within easy reach of the house include bird watching, pony trekking, sailing and boating: Bassenthwaite Lake is just a mile away. Golf enthusiasts are welcomed at Keswick and Penrith Golf Clubs, and there are many opportunities for fishermen in the area. The Lake District Osprey project is just a couple of miles away too.
 

Location

Leave the M6 motorway at Penrith (J40) and take the A66, beyond Keswick, Portinscale and Braithwaite, then take a left turn at the sign to Thornthwaite. Follow the signs for 'The Gallery' and just behind the Gallery car park turn right up the unmade road. Follow the signs to Thwaite Howe.
