Denton house is welcoming guests for spring bank holiday

April 29th 2022

Immerse yourself in the wonder of the Lakes at Denton House. Nestled in the picture perfect Keswick you’ll be spoiled for choice, good walks and good pubs are abundant. With plenty to do in-between.

Of course if walking is your forte all you have to do is pick a direction. Expect stunning views (and a good few hills). The calm atmosphere of the Lake District is hard to match, ambling around it’s easy to let troubles melt away. A well deserved break after a difficult year, bring your bike and set out for the trails. Or bring your canoe and set out for a decidedly more adventurous trip. The hostel is well equipped for whatever you plan on getting up to and allows dogs by arrangement.
