Ghost Hauntings in Keswick and Cockermouth
Lakeland hauntings will give you goosebumps on your trip to the Lakes with Ghost Tours in Keswick and Cockermouth, 2 of our beautiful and historic market towns. There are lots of spooky stories to tell so follow “The Lady’ if you dare.
The Keswick & Cockermouth Ghost Walks take place on pavements and public footpaths around the town centre and park. There are a few steps and slight inclines so if you have any mobility concerns, please call 07949 909365 for advice.
Keswick has a history full of murder, intrigue, and tortured souls. From slate-built houses to the surrounding lakes and fells this is an area steeped in legend and mystery.
Walks last about 1 hour 30 minutes. There are no facilities en route. Tickets must be booked in advance.
Experience the darker side of Cockermouth, a historic town, and the childhood home of William Wordsworth, with a hidden past lurking in the shadows of the Georgian splendour. Be brave and join “The Lady” as she tells tales of “Boggles ‘n sec lyke” for a very Cumbrian haunting. Keswick Ghost Walks start and end at The Moot Hall, Keswick, CA12 5JR. Cockermouth Ghost Walks start and end at The Bush, Main Street. CA13 9JS.
£10 Adults, £8 Concessions (16 years and under or over 65 years) Dogs: Well-behaved dogs on short leads are very welcome. There are no loud bangs.
