Set in the Lake District National Park, this charming property is a true home from home. It’s made for families who want to explore Cumbria’s heritage and spectacular surroundings.
This cottage is perfectly situated right at the heart of the beautiful Lake District town of Keswick. All the amenities of Keswick are right on the doorstep, the lake is just a few minutes' walk away and with its own designated parking space, you can easily come back from exploring the stunning surrounding area and instantly relax in this wonderful cottage.
The property benefits from the best of both worlds: a traditional cottage feel with all the modern amenities you could want for a perfect break. The exposed wooden beams are a characterful touch in a brightly modern interior with a fully updated kitchen and light living areas.
Suitable for families and couples alike, the cottage is a great base for making the most of your Lake District holiday. The museums, shops, restaurants and pubs in Keswick give the town a lively atmosphere. You can get onto Derwentwater either under your own steam, by hiring a rowing boat, or by getting on the launch which will pick you up and drop you off at various points around the lake. The fell walking is superb in the area with the fells of Borrowdale easily accessible and providing unrivalled scenery.
As soon as you walk into the cottage, you'll feel relaxed and right at home! From the entrance hallway you enter the open-plan living area that's decorated in lovely calming tones. There's also a nod to the cottage's original features in here, with an unimposing exposed beam dotted with brasses.
The lounge area has plenty of comfy seatings with a triple sofa and two armchairs. A TV and DVD with a selection of DVDs can provide entertainment in the evenings, while the lovely, gas-effect fire will add an extra level of cosiness to the room!
The kitchen is compact but well equipped with a fridge and ice box, dishwasher, washing machine, microwave and electric oven with four electric hobs. The layout of this room means that it's lovely and social, so the cook of the day can enjoy chatting with the others in the party as they relax in the lounge. Around the corner is a lovely square dining table for enjoying those delicious meals!
Stairs from the dining area lead to a landing on the first floor, where you'll find the two bedrooms and the bathroom. The master bedroom has a double bed, two bedside tables, a wardrobe, and a handy dressing table. There's also a wicker chair in here if you want to sit back for some 'me' time or just lay out your clothes for the next day's adventures! The second bedroom has twin beds, a bedside table, a wooden chair, and a small selection of books for you to use during your stay. Finally, the family bathroom has an electric shower over the bath, so you can choose a long soak or a refreshing wash, whichever suits you best! The bathroom also includes a WC and sink.
The property is a stone's throw from Keswick town centre and benefits from having local amenities right on the doorstep.
