Denton House Hostel, hotel in Keswick

Located in the market town of Keswick in the heart of the Lake District National Park, Denton House Hostel is just a 5-minute stroll from Keswick Leisure Center.

The member of staff who I met, Christina, was absolutely lovely. I was absolutely soaked and freezing after a walk on the Skiddaw tops but she let me check in early, which was a real bonus. Thank you, Christina. Fantastic single showers and a wonderful location. Car parking is free, and the Wi-Fi is good in the areas where it reaches - this included my dorm, Walla Cragg. Only a five minute walk into Keswick

Amazing view, comfortable room, great kitchen facilities, parking good. not space for everyone but considering the location not surprising.

    The YHA is in a great location in the beautiful Borrowdale valley. The hostel itself has a large bar and dining area and a nice outdoor seating space and camping area. The separate games room with pool and table tennis tables was a bonus.
