This attractive holiday home is a luxurious and stylish two bed terraced property, just five minutes from Keswick town centre, the capital of the spectacular North Lakes. Styled and furnished by a local interior designer, attention to detail prevails throughout to ensure your stay is comfortable and unforgettable. From the fine furnishings, beautiful bedding and original art work to the wood burner, oak flooring and sumptuous sofas, the cottage is the perfect setting for a cosy lakeland getaway. The property offers accommodation for up to four in two double bedrooms with hotel quality duvets and pillows combined with thick toppers and 400 thread count sateen bedding, to ensure you have the best possible sleep. The cottage has a sweet front garden where you can sit and enjoy the birdsong and a small patio at the rear. Parking is on the road outside the cottage.

Located 5 minutes from Keswick town Centre, the property is perfectly placed for enjoying everything that this popular market town has to offer. For those looking for a bit of retail therapy, Keswick has plenty of outdoor and independent shops to potter around. Treat yourself to a cuppa and a slice of cake in one of the many cafes on offer, or, if you fancy something a bit heartier, take your pick from the many pubs and restaurants. Why not stroll down to beautiful Derwentwater where you can feed the ducks or hitch a ride on the launch for a scenic tour of the lake? Take in a play at the renowned Theatre by the Lake or catch a film at the town's art deco cinema.

Keswick is ideally situated for exploring the wider Lakes. Enjoy the views along the scenic 20 minute drive to Grasmere - remember to stock up on their world famous gingerbread! Ambleside, Bowness and Windermere are popular South Lakeland towns well worth a visit; from lake cruises and woodlands walks to the World of Beatrix Potter and Blackwell Arts and Crafts House there's something to suit everyone. With so much to do and the property perfectly placed to take advantage of everything on offer, one break here just won't be enough.

The property is a delightful terraced cottage arranged over two floors; it provides comfortable self-catering accommodation for four people in two bedrooms. With stylish interiors throughout, every detail has been carefully thought through making the property a wonderful home-from-home.

The front door opens into the hallway off which is the open-plan living-dining room. The gorgeous living area has two sumptuous sofas, large feature lamps, cosy wood burner and Smart TV and DVD player. For entertainment, a selection DVDs and games have kindly been provided, whilst the selection of guide books are sure to inspire you and help you plan your many adventures. The living area extends into the stylish dining area. Here you'll find a solid oak dining table and chairs, just perfect for catching up whilst enjoying a good meal. The dresser and door to outside rear patio complete this open plan space.

The country-style kitchen is through the dining space at the rear of the cottage. The modern kitchen is well-equipped with everything you could need from an integrated dishwasher, fridge/freezer and even soft closing storage cupboards. Through the kitchen there's a handy downstairs toilet, which also contains the useful washer/dryer unit. For the caffeine fans among you you'll be delighted to find a Nespresso coffee machine (remember to bring some extra pods!)

Moving up the stairs to the first floor you'll find the two bedrooms and family bathroom. The large master bedroom is a wonderful retreat. With a gorgeous super-king-size bed, stylish painted furniture, two large windows and a Smart TV, you'll feel perfectly at home in this beautiful bedroom. The second double room contains a lovely upholstered king-size bed. This cosy room is the perfect place to relax and unwind. The modern family bathroom benefits from underfloor heating and contains a bath, with shower over - ideal for soaking tired muscles after a day out exploring.

To the rear there is a small patio area and at the front of the cottage is the medium-sized front garden. With lawn, mature shrubs and a wooden bench, the front garden is a lovely place to relax - perfect for an al fresco drink and nibble before retiring back into your beautiful cottage.

We had a really lovely week at this cottage. Its very central to Keswick but in a quiet street. It was cosy warm despite the cold weather and the storm outside. Only slight negative for us was the bed mattresses that were very saggy and need updating. Overall we would definitely recommend this cottage.
