Originally built as a guesthouse, Dorchester House is a late Victorian property which has been modernised to meet today?s needs but retains some significant original features.

With excellent views of Skiddaw, Causey Pike, Latrigg and Walla Crag the house provides a glimpse of the outstanding scenery that surrounds Keswick.

The house is comprised of eight bedrooms with six rooms being fully en-suite and one room incorporating a shower. All rooms have thermostatically controlled central heating, remote controlled colour television and complimentary tea and coffee making facilities.

With a variety of bedrooms we are able to cater for individuals, couples, families and parties of walkers.

Breakfast in our spacious dining room is the ideal way to start your days in the Lake District. Choose from fresh fruit salads, yoghurts, juices and cereals before enjoying a freshly cooked full English breakfast. Should you require something different, we offer a variety of alternative options including a vegetarian breakfast and breakfasts for those with special dietary needs.

The property has a full fire alarm system and has been awarded a fire certificate. For the comfort and safety of all our guests we operate a complete non-smoking policy.
