Peaceful Lake District Hotel

The Coledale is a genuine country inn situated above Braithwaite Village in a peaceful hillside position well away from passing traffic. It is ideally situated for touring and walking, with paths to the mountains immediately outside the hotel gardens. Relax in our quiet and safe beer garden on your return.

There is ample parking and you can leave the car for your entire stay if you wish, as there are plenty of walks that can be done from the hotel. Walkers, families and pets welcome.

Twelve en-suite rooms are located in both the Georgian and Victorian parts of the hotel and have TV and tea/coffee making facilities.

The inn is extremely interesting in itself. It was built c.1824, starting life as a woollen mill, then a pencil mill, eventually becoming the licensed premises it is today. It is full of attractive Victorian prints, furnishings and antiques.

From the moment you enter the welcoming Victorian residents' hallway, you will feel at home and comfortable at The Coledale Inn.
