Property code: OC-83871

A stylish and cosy shepherd''s hut 4 miles from the bustling market town of Keswick, one the most popular destinations anywhere in the Lake District National Park. Dog-friendly and perfect for couples seeking a romantic getaway, the hut features an open-plan living area, an unenclosed patio area with a private hot tub and easy access to attractions including Derwent Water, Blencathra and Castlerigg Stone Circle.

The deceptively large hut sits just off a narrow country lane close to the banks of the Glenderamackin, a river that flows in the shadow of Blencathra, one of the area''s many Wainwrights. The immediate area is enveloped in valleys and lakeland countryside, with plenty to absorb from the hut''s doorstep, and there are yet more inviting views inside. A fresh and modern interior is dressed in contemporary tones and soft furnishings, with plenty of natural light pouring in through French doors on one side. A spacious kitchen/diner area in the middle of the hut is a great place to relax and is bookmarked by a shower room on one side and a double bed on the other. The private patio area surrounding the hut is home to comfortable seating and a private hot tub. Private parking for one car is also available.

The hut''s position in the northern part of the Lake District is ideal for exploring the numerous Wainwrights around Bassenthwaite Lake, Ullswater, and Derwent Water, all within an 11-mile radius. The charming village of Threlkeld, located just 1 mile away, is an easy walk and offers independent shops and pubs, a golf course and a cricket club. Keswick, 4 miles away, is a bustling market town popular among foodies, historians and lovers of the arts.

We had an amazing stay spending Christmas in striding edge! The cabin was very warm and cosy and a great size for two adults and a dog. Great use of the space. The kitchen had everything we needed. The cabin was decorated in Christmas lights and a tree which made it so cosy and gave a Christmassy feel. We will definitely be back! Thank you
