INN ON THE SQUARE, Keswick (Cumbria)

Brossen Steakhouse holds an AA Rosette Award for its locally sourced dishes. The hotel operates three separate bars: the Front Bar, Back Bar, and a lounge bar, each offering different menus and atmospheres. An exclusive hot chocolate station and seasonal food offers are available throughout the year.

Guests can bring up to two dogs per room, with a dedicated dog spa and washing station on site. Pet bowls and pet baskets are provided in the rooms, and dogs are allowed in the Front Bar, Back Bar, and a designated dining area near reception. A room tag system lets owners leave dogs unattended while they visit shops or the lake.

Guest rooms blend Scandinavian design with Cumbrian elements, and some offer views of the surrounding fells. Accessible rooms include emergency cords in the bathroom, grab rails, raised toilets, and wheelchair access throughout the hotel. The property has a lift, key card access, and a 24-hour front desk.

The hotel sits directly on Keswick's market square, within a 10-minute walk of Derwentwater Lake. Keswick's shops, bars, and restaurants are immediately outside the door, and the Lake District National Park surrounds the town. Secure underground parking is available to pre-book at £12 per night.

Live sport events are shown in the hotel's bars, and regular community activities and quizzes take place throughout the year. The Front Bar offers a relaxed setting, while the Back Bar provides a more traditional pub atmosphere. Breakfast is served each morning with a cooked-to-order menu and cold buffet options.
