Scafell Hotel is a fabulous country house hotel situated in the heart of Borrowdale in Cumbria. Our hotel is ideally located for walkers to enjoy the Lake District and stunning fells and meadows.

All 23 bedrooms at the Scafell Hotel including our Barnes Wallis Suite have been superbly designed and decorated in a warm & rich country house style, with a ‘contemporary twist’. Some with restored traditional antique furniture, all with designer en-suite bathrooms, digital lcd tv, telephone, tea and coffee making tray, hairdryer, H2K bathroom products and freshly filtered fell water, affectionately referred to as “Borrowdale Gin”.

There are stunning views of the surrounding scenery from every room. Some sit peacefully above the river whilst others look out over our landscaped gardens and all guarantee breathtaking views of Borrowdale’s majestic mountains.

After a fantastic day’s walking the Fells or touring around the Lakes return to the comfort of the Scafell Hotel for a relaxing and luxurious night’s sleep complemented the next morning with an award-winning cooked breakfast – full English, haddock and poached eggs, kippers and more – or create your own healthy choice from our breakfast buffet.

Not only is the Scafell Hotel in one of the most stunning locations in the Lake District, but great food, great wine, great beer and of course great service make us an eating destination.

Choose from the luxury of the Restaurant for Dinner & Sunday Lunch, where we serve a AA Rosette award winning fine dining menu & three course Sunday Lunch, both featuring the finest Cumbrian and locally sourced produce, a selection of local Cumbrian cheeses served on Honister Slate finished with a fresh cafetiere of Ringtons coffee and home-made truffles, or the Lounge & Lawn menu for a casual & relaxing lunch from the hotels Lounge Bar.

The Hotel is situated almost at the foot of Great Gable and the Scafell Massif, and is regarded one of the Lake District’s renowned headquarters for climbers and hill walkers.

Those who are content with gentle rambling or just lazing on restful lawns fringed by trees amidst imposing scenery will be equally happy staying here.
