About YHA Derwentwater

Internet Access

This 200-year-old mansion is ideally situated for a relaxing family or group break. Boasting extensive grounds with a large play area and woodlands, children will find plenty of space in which to vent excess energy. It's also right on the shore of Derwentwater, which many say is the most picturesque lake in Britain, and has a waterfall in the grounds.

The lake itself will keep you occupied for days - children can paddle while the more adventurous can take part in a wide variety of water sports. Catch the launch nearby and stop off at any of the six jetties to explore the shoreline. There is also a selection of spectacular walks to suit all levels.

Meals available:

Breakfast, picnic lunch and evening meal.

Evening meal at 19.00 hrs

Enjoy such facilities as the common room, cycle hire, dining room, games room and self-catering kitchen!

We look forward to seeing you here!
