On the instructions of Joint Receivers Steve Williams and David Acland of FRP Advisory, Fixed Charge Receivers of Scafell Hotel Limited

The renowned former trading business was closed in January 2024 following the bereavement of one of the former Directors. Since then, a good deal of interest and offers have been received but the decision to sell was curtailed due mainly to the circumstances surrounding the indebtedness of the previous owners of the asset.

The decision has now been taken to affect a sale ideally prior to the onset of Spring.

Please note the decision has been taken to invite ?Best and Final Offer? be received by us no later than 17:00 on Tuesday 27 January.



Scafell Hotel is located in the small village of Rosthwaite in the Lake District National Park.

Its backdrop of Lakeland fells including Great Gable, Dale Head, High Spy, Scafell Pike and Great End provide a particular attraction to seasoned fell walkers whilst its close proximity to the banks of the River Derwent, along Langstrath or up the Watendlath, appeal equally to those seeking a gentler stroll.

The shores of Derwent Water, ?The Queen of the Lakes?, lie further up the valley whilst the Honister Pass, at the head of Borrowdale, links to the lakes of Loweswater, Buttermere and Crummoch.
