This family-friendly property in Portinscale sleeps eight guests across four spacious bedrooms. It’s perfectly placed for sporty adventures and family-friendly activities in the spectacular Lake District National Park.
This welcoming holiday home is a lovely four-bedroom end of terrace Lakeland cottage with stunning views of the Skiddaw mountain range. It is situated on the edge of the village of Portinscale, which is on the shores of Derwentwater Lake.
There are countless scenic walks from Portinscale, either along the shore of Derwentwater or up on the fells and mountains. Here you can make the most of the peace and tranquillity that the Lake District has to offer.
It is only a 20-minute walk along a picturesque pathway into the town of Keswick which has a wealth of shops, cafes, restaurants and pubs. There is also a leisure pool, cinema, climbing wall and theatre. If you don’t want to go right into Keswick, the local pub is a stone’s throw away from the property and serves excellent food and real ale.
The property is a sympathetically restored traditional stone built Lakeland cottage with many original features.
