A really first class place to stay while in the Lake District. Accommodation was really first class. I would definitely come back again.

The Watches is a great Lodge, very clean and well presented.
The Watches is a great Lodge, very clean and well presented. We enjoyed the views. Slightly out of the way as it’s about 7 miles to Keswick but not bad. The location is very quiet and peaceful. We really enjoyed our stay and wouldn’t hesitate to return sometime.
Absolutely loved this property and location we will definitely be frequenting this property as a regular stay location for all our visits to the lakes, peaceful, close to local amenities and has a lovely view to sit out with a cuppa to on a morning or a Gin on an evening.
Throughly enjoyed it
