Our Story
Report
The Trout Hotel has been at the heart of the pretty gem town of Cockermouth for several centuries. Going back to 1670, the hotel was first built as a private residence for the Egremont Estate. It was known as Sandclose and remained so until it became the Lakes Hotel in 1934. In the 1960s, as trout and salmon fishing became popular on the River Derwent and River Cocker, the hotel changed its name to the Trout Hotel and over the years, became a favourite retreat of Hollywood legend Bing Crosby, who loved to visit for fishing breaks.
Team
Report
The Trout is an independent hotel and we are a very close-knit team. Many of us have been here for a long time, some for as many as 20 years and we love to go that extra mile for our guests - it really matters to us that your stay with us is special and you feel truly taken care of. We will always aim to surpass your hopes. This is a very personal business and that's why so many of our guests are now friends and return to us year after year.
