The Cottage in the Wood
Seasonal Tasting Menu
The Cottage in the Wood is a gloriously secluded restaurant with rooms tucked in Whinlatter Forest above Keswick. The restaurant serves a tasting menu that combines classical technique with subtle modern twists. The setting, surrounded by England’s only mountain forest, is as memorable as the food.
What to Expect
The dining room is cosy and intimate, with forest views that make you feel wonderfully undisturbed. The kitchen offers a tasting menu created with ingredients from local farms and sustainable suppliers to craft dishes that are technically accomplished but never overwrought. The Cottage in the Wood is the kind of place where the journey to us forms part of the experience.
The Food
The tasting menu changes regularly, guided by seasonal availability and the best produce from Cumbrian farmers and British suppliers. Classical techniques underpin the cooking, with modern touches adding lightness and creativity. Expect carefully balanced dishes with clear, well-defined flavours throughout.
