As a business built around helping people make the most of their time in the Lake District, we spend a lot of time talking about places to stay, things to do and where to eat. It’s rare that we ever call one business ‘the best’, but in this instance, I think we have to make …
There’s a certain kind of story that can only be told here. Not because the Lake District is pretty (even though it really is), but because it gives people space. Space to get lost a bit, to think too much, and to figure things out the long way round. That’s exactly the territory local writer-director …
Pinch us! Keswick Cottages has been named Best Community Business at the Pride of Cumbria Awards 2026. And whilst we’re incredibly proud of the award itself, what it represents means even more. This isn’t just recognition of a business; it’s recognition of a belief we’ve held onto since day one… Keswick Cottages began back in …

Come on, is that really a question? It’s the Old Keswickian. We ate it, so you don’t have to (but absolutely should). Some places don’t need reinventing; they just need good fish, hot chips, and a queue out the door to prove they’re doing something very, very right. Enter The Old Keswickian, a true icon of …

So, once again, we’re rolling up our sleeves and doing the hard work for Keswick. This time, it involved beer. Lots of beer. Tragic, we know. What an induction for Josh, who spent one of his first days on the team being treated to this after work! I’m not saying our Marketing girl is an …
