Skiddaw Hotel

Twenty-seven dog rooms on Keswick's market square, conservatory dining all day

This hotel is part of the Daisy Curated Collection. Its information has been researched and verified, but Daisy has not yet personally stayed here. When she does, this page will be upgraded to a full Daisy Verified inspection.

Daisy's Assessment
Researched and verified. Not yet personally stayed.
A four-star hotel on Keswick's Market Square, so you walk out into the town rather than driving to it. Twenty-seven of the forty-three bedrooms take dogs, plus some of the suites, which is one of the highest proportions anywhere in the Lakes. The conservatory looks onto the square and takes dogs from breakfast through to dinner. It suits people who want a town base for Derwentwater and the northern fells.

Why it's in the collection

Hope Park and the Derwentwater shore at Friar's Crag are both about ten minutes on foot from the square, and the Latrigg path up behind the town gives a short fell with big views.

Best suited for

Up to two dogs in twenty-seven of the forty-three rooms, and all meals go in the conservatory.

The open question

How the welcome translates in person, at dinner and around the hotel. That's what a Daisy stay will confirm.

Twenty-seven of the forty-three bedrooms take dogs, along with some suites. The conservatory overlooking Market Square is dog friendly all day and you can have breakfast, lunch or dinner there. Brasserie 31 is people only.

Where we can't yet confirm a detail first-hand, we mark it plainly rather than guess. A Daisy stay will close every gap.
