With a view of the mighty Skiddaw from the house, this bright, warmly decorated and comfortable holiday property provides an ideal backdrop for up to four guests discovering Keswick and Derwentwater.
Here is a lovely cottage in the perfect location. It is close enough to be just a 5-minute walk from the centre of things in Keswick but in a quiet street with views of the fells at one end. This is a cottage that is perfectly proportioned, with comfortable furnishings and little thoughtful touches throughout.
Keswick is a busy, vibrant, friendly town with plenty of pubs, cafes and restaurants, as well as outdoor shops and other interesting independent shops. There are a couple of museums, pitch and putt golf, a climbing wall, a cinema and a theatre.
Derwentwater is a 10-minute walk from the cottage and here you can hire rowing boats, take a trip on the launch or explore the paths around the lakeshore. The mountains surrounding Keswick are within easy reach – Catbells, the Coledale Horseshoe and Blencathra are all a great day’s walk, as well as Skiddaw and Latrigg.
On top of being known as the ‘Adventure Capital of England’, Keswick also hosts a variety of events and festivals – there is the Film Festival in February, Words by the Water in March, the Jazz festival in May and the Beer Festival in June to name but a few.
This is a house with a lovely feel to it, and a great location being situated on a quiet street just five minutes walk from the centre of Keswick.
The hallway from the front door opens out into the sitting room which is beautifully furnished with comfy seating, inspiring pictures, books to borrow, TV and DVD player.
The kitchen has dining for four and is fully equipped with electric oven and hob, microwave, dishwasher, under-counter fridge with freezer compartment and plenty of storage space.
Upstairs are two bedrooms furnished with an eye to style and homely living. The twin bedroom has two single beds, wardrobe and chest of drawers. The double has king-size bed, fitted wardrobes and a dressing table. The bathroom is upstairs and has a bath with shower over.
Parking is to the back of the house and you will enter via the kitchen door. There is a small shared patio area by the kitchen here, perfect for catching the morning sunshine - a couple of foldaway wooden chairs are provided.
