We aim to provide friendly, budget accommodation for Backpackers and Groups in Keswick, the Lake District. We are an Independent Hostel.

Denton House is an independent backpacker's hostel which was purpose built as an outdoor centre. We are five minutes walk from Keswick town centre

Our accommodation is in bunkrooms of 4 to 14 beds (total 58) with duvets, pillows and sheet sleeping liners. We have single sex or mixed dorms and you can book by the bed or by the room.

We have central heating throughout and permanent hot water for showers.

 The kitchen facilities were designed for commercial use, so we can cater easily for large or small groups.

Big dining room

  • Indoor bike and Kayak Storage

  • Laundry - washer and drier

  • Free Tea and Coffee, 24 hours

  • No curfew and no daytime lockout
