The atmosphere of this fine Georgian house is friendly and relaxing, and the resident proprietors, Joe and Susan Miller, are always on hand to ensure that your stay is an enjoyable one.

Quietly situated and with private car parks, yet only four minutes walk from the town centre, Acorn House is ideal for long or short breaks in the heart of the northern Lake District. The Millers pride themselves in offering superior accommodation, leaving the residents to choose their own evening meal from the many restaurants, pubs and cafes which are only a few minutes easy stroll away.

The town itself, on the northern shores of Derwentwater, has many attractions - museums and galleries and fascinating shops for browsing or buying. Watersports, golf and pony trekking are just a few of the activities to enjoy in the natural beauty of Keswick's surrounding countryside, with tuition available in many cases.

Traditional furniture enhances the character of each of the ten spacious bedrooms, each individually designed and decorated with more than a touch of luxury. Three of the bedrooms have luxurious four-poster beds. All of the bedrooms are en suite with a choice of bathroom or shower room and all have colour television, radio alarms, tea/coffee making facilities and hospitality trays.

One ground floor room is available and all rooms are cleaned daily, assuring complete cleanliness. We also have a NO SMOKING policy.

The generous full English breakfast will set you up for the day, whether walking, climbing or sightseeing. After the days exertions you can relax in the elegant and comfortable lounge, or enjoy the hotel's attractive and well-tendered gardens.

The hotel is open for most of the year and with full central heating you can be sure of a warm welcome at Acorn House, whatever the season!
