"Visited solo for some fell walking. The location is unbeatable for whole day walks direct from the hotel up to nearby fells like Dale Head, Great Gable, or Newlands Valley to Cat Bells."

Guests can try climbing ladders, wire bridges, and cargo nets. Ghyll Scrambling provides the chance to get soaked in a mountain stream. Guests can get kitted out with recurve bows appropriate to their strength and eye dominance. A dedicated team of outdoor adventure experts with years of experience are available. The Borrowdale Valley has crags suitable for rock climbing, including Seathwaite Slabs, Wodens Face, and Shepherds Crag.

Location and Transport

Glaramara Hotel is located in Borrowdale, in the county's volcanic central mountains. It is 80 km from Carlisle Lake District Airport. Nearby landmarks include Great Crag (2.5 km), Sprinkling Tarn (5 km), Dale Head (3 km), Holy Trinity Church (4 km), The Bowder Stone (2.5 km), Glaramara (3 km), Rosthwaite Stepping Stones (2 km), Styhead Tarn (4.5 km), Great Gable (5 km), and Fleetwith Pike (4 km). Borrowdale stretches from the head of Derwentwater and is walled in part by high, sharp-edged crags. The nearest station is Penrith, which lies on the west coast main line.

Services and Events

Glaramara Hotel can host events in the heart of the English Lake District, with Lake Derwentwater. It can host business or educational events in the Borrowdale Valley, including training courses and team building events away from the distractions of the workplace.

“In Borrowdale Valley, this is a fine place for outdoor enthusiasts and families, with hiking trails easily accessible and pet-friendly accommodations available; the staff's warmth enhances the experience, and the social dining atmosphere makes meals a pleasure. What stands out is the quality of the food-locally sourced-and the breathtaking mountain views from the rooms. I think it makes a balanced choice for a Lake District getaway.”
