While it’s a great place to relax by England’s biggest lake, there’s also plenty to see and do during a visit to Brockhole, whether it’s simply walking through the meadows and woodland or having a go at the Treetop Trek course or even hiring a canoe to adventure onto Lake Windermere.

Rooms harness the hotel’s storybook heritage with plaid fabrics, vaulted wooden ceilings and earthy tones."
