Nestled in the tranquil Lakeland village of Portinscale at the northern tip of Lake Derwentwater, this traditional stone cottage offers a magical base for your Lake District stay. With flexible accommodation for four guests, generous living spaces and a pretty courtyard patio, this dog-friendly abode is perfect for a romantic getaway, a family break or a holiday with friends. With an abundance of walking routes and water activities on your doorstep, its location is a delight for those who love the great outdoors.
Light and airy with modern interiors, this two-storey cottage has been designed for guests’ comfort, offering a true home from home. Put your feet up after a day on the trails in the spacious lounge, toes toasty by the wood burner-effect electric fire on chilly days. Fuel before and after active days in the modern fitted kitchen, where you can wine, dine and chat around the dining table. Grab a moment of tranquillity with a morning cuppa or evening hot chocolate at the bistro table in the garden, and rest and recharge in the two spacious first-floor bedrooms: a king-size with an en-suite bathroom and a twin zip-and-link which can be made up as a king-size on request, which has an en-suite shower room.
Filled with Lakeland charm, Portinscale is well set up for visitors, with plenty of cafes, pubs and restaurants. This lovely village has two marinas offering various activities on Derwentwater, including paddleboarding and sailing, while several trails start from here, including Catbells and Causey Pike. It’s just over a mile to the popular Lakeland town of Keswick, with a lovely walking trail connecting the two places.
