There are attractive period features and furniture throughout this lovely home. Get in from a good walk and light the wood burner in the living room, with comfy leather sofas and a Smart TV. Cook something special in the kitchen, then enjoy it in the separate dining room with a stunning ornamental fireplace.

Lovely house in great central Keswick location. Could easily walk into town, down to the lake and the playground with the kids (5 & 3 yrs). Always managed to park pretty close to the house. Great base to explore the northern lakes!

The location is excellent, close enough to walk in to the centre of Keswick in five minutes, yet far enough away to be nice and quiet. The property was very clean and tidy on arriving, the bathroom (which is light and airy and has a great shower) and kitchen (which has everything you need) both look to have been refurbished recently. We enjoyed ourRead more stay and would definitely book this property again if we return to Keswick, which I've no doubt we will. Hide
