The village of Portinscale is a short walk (1.5 miles) from the popular market town of Keswick, and with a network of footpaths to the lake or into the mountains right on the doorstep, this delightful property is perfect for families looking for an active holiday in the Lake District.
This beautiful first-floor apartment is reached via a delightful sweeping staircase. The hallway leads into an inviting open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner with soothing tones and lovely details. The huge bay window overlooks the village, and the comfortable sofas and armchairs, as well as a Smart TV with DVD player, create a relaxing space where you can enjoy time as a family, watch a movie or play a board game. The kitchen and dining area provide everything you need to cook together and enjoy your favourite dishes. Next to the lounge, you'll find a king-size bedroom with a TV and large windows that flood the room with light and let you catch a glimpse of Derwentwater through the trees. Next door is the bathroom with cosy underfloor heating, and a twin bedroom is along the hallway and down a couple of steps. Outside, at the front of the property, there is a shared terrace where you can sit in the sun and read or watch the world go by.
The marina is only 0.5 miles from the property. There, you can take the launch to Keswick or hire kayaks and paddleboards to explore the bays and islands around Derwentwater. There's an indoor climbing centre in Keswick for rainy days and mountain biking enthusiasts can explore some of the trails in Whinlatter Forest, less than 4 miles away. The Lingholm Estate is less than a mile away and offers lovely walks and a pretty walled garden.
