This delightful second-floor apartment for two is within easy reach of Keswick town centre. As the name suggests, from its elevated position, the apartment enjoys fantastic views over some of the area's most popular fells including Latrigg, Catbells and Causey Pike. Head up the stairs and inside this lovely apartment and you'll find stylish accommodation, just perfect for two people or a relaxing solo stay.

Leave the car and head out on foot, the centre of Keswick is only a short stroll away. Spend a morning browsing round the shops, stopping for a bite of lunch or slice of cake in one of the town's many independent cafes. For a spot of culture, head to Keswick Museum and Art Gallery by Fitz Park to learn more about local history, or head to the famous Pencil Museum, the gift shop here is the perfect place for those with an artistic flare. Fancy a night off from cooking? Within a couple of minutes' walk of the apartment you'll find a great selection of pubs and restaurants.

Grab your walking boots and pack a picnic, the views from this apartment are sure to have you itching to get out and explore! Head down to Derwentwater where you can enjoy a scenic 10-mile walk around the lake. Tick a few off the list of fells you can see from the apartment. The scramble up the top of Catbells is certainly worth it for the fantastic panormic views. Head up the ever popular Latrigg to the famous bench at the top, the perfect place for a mid-walk hot chocolate break. Or make a day of it and head for Causey Pike, where you can enjoy a day on the felltops. All before heading back to your home from home.

Head inside this welcoming apartment and you're sure to feel right at home. The bright open-plan living/dining/kitchen area is a lovely sociable space. Cooks will love the well-equipped kitchen; in here you'll find an electric oven and hob, fridge/freezer, microwave, kettle and toaster. There's also a handy dishwasher - no fighting over who has to do the washing up here - as well as a useful washer/dryer. The dining table is perfectly positioned by the window so you can dine with a view! Relax in front of the flame-effect electric fire; curl up with a good book or take advantage of the TV with Freeview and Netflix.

Onwards to the sleeping accommodation. With a feature king-size metal-framed bed, en-suite shower room and adjoining dressing area, you have your very own bedroom suite! The bedroom itself feels lovely and relaxing thanks to its calming decor and the modern en-suite shower room with WC is great; it's perfect for revitalising tired muscles after a day on the fells.

Up a step from the bedroom you'll find a real treat: a wonderful rooftop terrace! This decked area with outdoor furniture takes in more of this stunning views and is the perfect spot for early birds to enjoy a peaceful morning cuppa or for that refreshing G&T come 6 o'clock. The apartment also benefits from a private parking space for one car and a bike store - you really couldn't ask for much more.

Derwent Fells was the perfect apartment for a long weekend in Keswick for my wife and I. Location - just about perfect for the town. Opposite the little Cinema and a 1 or 2 minute walk to shops, restaurants, pubs and main high street. Also very quiet at night. Property superbly laid out and well equipped with a comfortable lounge and decent TV. BroRead moreadband good as well. Excellent views and a neat outside terrace accessed via the bedroom.

Great location and facility, our cottage was well kitted out to a very high standard, didn't move the car all week. Keswick has something for everyone with plenty to do, see and enjoy and very central to explore the surrounding areas.

Good location for the town, just a few minutes walk . Parking for your car , although some people may find it a little tricky access. Clean smart property with great views. Quite steep stairs for access gives you a bit of a workout.

We had a wonderful week in Derwent Fells. Every comfort and exceptional cleanliness was enjoyed. The views are magnificent. Lovely spacious bedroom suite and comfortable bed. Location perfect. We enjoyed a visit to family run cinema across the road and regular early morning visits to Derwentwater prior to breakfast and walks later in the day.
