Roundthorn Country House Hotel

Perched on the edge of the Lake District with sweeping views over the Eden Valley, Roundthorn Country House offers a peaceful and characterful setting for corporate events. This Grade II listed Georgian mansion is surrounded by landscaped gardens and open countryside, creating an ideal backdrop for away days, strategy sessions and team retreats. Just five minutes from Penrith and the M6, the venue is easily accessible, with ample parking and a secluded feel that helps teams step away from the everyday.

Inspiring Lake District events

Roundthorn’s flexible meeting spaces are designed to host everything from large conferences to smaller breakout sessions. The Cumbrian Suite is the largest space, with capacity for up to 180 delegates theatre-style and the versatility to suit exhibitions, presentations and team workshops. For smaller groups, the Lowther Room, Earmont Room and Eden Room each offer a quiet, well-equipped setting for meetings, training or private dining.

All spaces benefit from natural light and are supported by high-speed WiFi, AV equipment and a range of catering options. The landscaped gardens provide an additional opportunity to take sessions outside or run collaborative team-building activities in a relaxed setting. Whether it's country sports like archery, air-rifles and duck herding or a variety of gameshow style challenges, we'll find the perfect activity to get your team laughing and working well together.
