Overview

With exclusive grounds to discover and a unique food offering, The Forest Side is in a world of its own making at the heart of the Lake District. It is a magical retreat surrounded by the stunning countryside of Wordsworth's beloved Grasmere. Set in a gothic mansion, with a charming team to provide every comfort and service, there are 20 beautiful bedrooms, welcoming lounges and a highly creative bar team. This is the home to a Michelin-starred restaurant, led by Head Chef Paul Leonard designed to be a reflection of the very landscape in which it sits.
