Overview
Property code: SZ008

Wonderfully located for boat trips on Derwentwater and adventures up fells such as Catbells, this home is great for small families or holidays with friends.

This welcoming property is located close to plenty of Lake District attractions; the Derwent Pencil Museum, Puzzling Place and Keswick Launch are all with 1.5 miles. Fill your days with fun, family-friendly excursions and enjoy the bustling town of Keswick with its many pubs, or spend some time exploring the Lake District National Park and the peaks of Skiddaw (6.5 miles), Scafell Pike (6.5 miles) and Catbells (5.5 miles) for panoramic views and peak-top picnic spots. Head to the local launch and book a cruise on Derwentwater or make a splash and hire stand up paddleboards and kayaks so you can set off and explore at your own pace.

Step inside the property by descending ten steps to the front door. Finding yourself in the entrance hall, leave boots and bags behind as you make your way into the kitchen for a warming cup of tea. Bright and airy, this is a lovely space in which to cook while admiring views across rooftops and mountains making it a cooking experience to remember. After tucking into a tasty meal at the drop-down dining tables which can be found in either the kitchen or the lounge, put your feet up in the lounge where you can relax and unwind in front of the wood burner effect gas fire and the TV/DVD. With lots of space to hang your best holiday outfits and warm layers for exploring, the double bedroom and the twin room offer lovely spots in which to relax for a peaceful sleep. The master is treated to views of the surrounding fells which you can admire from the moment you wake in the morning. Soak in the tub in the family bathroom or freshen up in the shower over the bath for a quick start to the day.

Boasting wonderful views, the patio is a great spot to sit with a glass of something cold. Marvel at fantastic sunsets and gaze as far as Skiddaw from the comfort of your home from home. There is ample on-road parking nearby.

Beautiful views from the back with wonderful sunsets. Its an ideal location with several walks direct from the house and quite handy for local shops (garage) and the lovely Keswick town.

Cottage was very clean and maintained to a high standard. Easy on-road parking outside the cottage.

A very nice cottage in a great location just outside Keswick. Easy access into the town and into the local area for walks. It is well equipped, roomy and feels like a home rather than just a place to crash.

We will definitely stay thRead moreere again in the future, in fact other members of my family have already booked to stay there next year. Hide

A very well equipped and comfortable bungalow, with a wonderful view across the town to mountains all around. Kitchen had everything we needed, and we appreciated the use of the portable freezer.

Ideal location for our annual family gathering. Can park the car outside and dont need to move it again. 10 minute walk into Keswick. Comfy beds and well equipped. Plenty of extra bedding if weather cold. Have stayed here a number of times now and already booked again for next year.

Excellent location for walking from the cottage. We walked to Castlerigg Stone Circle returning via the rail trail; Derwent Water lakeside and Great Wood; and a short drive to Dodd Wood and Bassenthwaite lakeside.

We had a very enjoyable week. The bungalow is comfortable and well equipped. The view is fantastic. We have stayed previously and will do again. The steps down to the front door and again to the garden could be an issue for some people.
