About us.
Just a short drive from Keswick, the lodge is perfectly placed for exploring the area, with beautiful walks from the doorstep.
Comfort and relaxation for all.
Nestled at the foot of Skiddaw in the Northern Lake District, Ravenstone Lodge enjoys sweeping views across the surrounding fells towards Bassenthwaite Lake and Sale Fell. Just a short drive from Keswick, the lodge is perfectly placed for exploring the area, with beautiful walks from the doorstep. Climb Skiddaw, wander through Dodd Wood or follow the lakeshore to the historic St Bega's Church
At the heart of the lodge is our two AA Rosette restaurant, where carefully prepared, seasonal food is served in a relaxed and welcoming setting. Join us for dinner, settle in for drinks on the terrace or after a day on the fells, relax beside the log burner in the lounge
For a change of scenery, where you'll find the same friendly welcome, visit our sister hotel, Ravenstone manor, just across the road for local ales, award winning pies and our popular Sunday Roasts
Our History.
Ravenstone Lodge began life as the stables, coach house and working kitchen garden for Ravenstone Manor, situated just across the road. Both properties date back to the 1860s, when the Manor was originally built as a Dower house
Over the years, the buildings were converted into hotels and operated separately. In January 2024, the Mawdsley family purchased Ravenstone Lodge, bringing the two properties back under the same ownership
Since then, the Lodge has been thoughtfully refurbished, with the restaurant, bar and public areas beautifully transformed. The work has preserved the warmth and character of the original building while creating a welcoming country house hotel for a new generation of guests.
