Dating back to 1707, this beautifully restored house pairs Georgian character with contemporary comfort in the heart of Keswick. Sleeping eight guests, it’s well suited to extended families and groups of friends wanting to explore the Lake District together.
The house opens into a generous kitchen/diner with quartz worktops, a Tassimo coffee machine and a large dining table where everyone can gather for meals. Stylish tiled flooring and underfloor heating run throughout the ground floor, which also houses a king-size bedroom with an en-suite shower room containing a walk-in rainfall shower. An impressive Georgian staircase leads upstairs to a twin bedroom, convertible to a super-king-size for a small additional charge, alongside the family bathroom with a bath and separate shower. The lounge combines original beams and shuttered windows with three sofas, oak furniture and a Smart TV. On the top floor, another twin bedroom can also be changed to a super-king-size for a charge, alongside a further king-size room. Both have high-beamed ceilings and attractive views, with a gleaming shower room serving the floor. Quality furnishings, solid oak furniture and luxurious linens are found in all the bedrooms. The large, shared garden has a lawn, furniture for al fresco dining and play equipment for younger guests. Two allocated parking spaces are available, while bike storage can be used on a first-come, first-served basis.
Keswick is renowned for its outdoor activities, from fell walking and rock climbing to paddleboarding and wild swimming, while the town itself has a river, museum, gallery, shops, pubs, and restaurants, all within 0.5 miles. Derwentwater is also 0.5 miles away, with motorboat hire and a wonderful 10-mile route around the lake. For more challenging days on the fells, Skiddaw (5 miles) and Blencathra (7 miles) are both within easy reach.
