Welcome to the Lake District’s natural choice
Perched 1,000ft up in the Whinlatter Forest above Keswick in the northern Lake District, The Cottage in the Wood is a unique Michelin-starred Restaurant with Rooms combining Ben Wilkinson’s sophisticated cooking, boutique-style rooms, friendly service and a warm welcome in a stunning natural setting. This month we were proud to be named in the UK’s Top 100 Restaurants for the first time.
Covid-19 latest
We have moved forward cautiously from 19th July, maintaining many of our Covid safety measures. Demand has been high and we are fully booked for accommodation until November, when there is limited availability. Any room cancellations will be posted via social media. A huge thank you to everyone who has supported us throughout the pandemic!
