OPEN ALL YEAR



The Rydal Suite

This is in the older part of the house and features a double height ceiling complete with original
oak beams and a cast iron fire place. The bedroom is very large and airy and tends
to be the favourite with our visitors. It features a north facing skylight (thought to have been
installed by Frederick Yates, a local artist who lived at Cote How in the early 1900's.)

It was in this very room that Ex American President Woodrow Wilson had his portrait painted by
Frederick Yates. See extracts from: An American President's love affair with the English Lake District.
