Keswick is a bustling market town situated next to Derwentwater and surrounded by mountains. There is much to do here such as peruse the shops, dine at the restaurants or visit one of the many museums and tourist attractions. An abundance of walks is waiting to welcome you, from gentle lakeside strolls, to fell hiking. Head 6.5 miles to the fell, Blencathra or 5 miles to Skiddaw mountain, and admire the stunning views across the Northern Lake District. Go fishing, hire a boat or take part in other water sports on the fantastic Derwentwater. The regular launch service here takes visitors around the lake and stops at various notable points including the walled garden that inspired Beatrix Potter and a waterfall. Alternatively, visit Whinlatter Forest Park (5 miles) for further walks and thrilling cycling trails.

This wonderful home has been stylishly decorated and furnished throughout. The front door opens into the hallway, where you can hang up your coats and place your walking boots before heading through to the lounge/diner. A wood burner will keep you warm as you take a seat on the comfortable sofas and watch your favourite series or film on the Smart TV. The dining area has a large table and chairs with a door leading out to a patio space. A country-style kitchen is well-equipped with an oven, hob, fridge/freezer, coffee pod machine, dishwasher and plenty of surface space to cook up a storm. The downstairs WC houses a washer/dryer for you to use, too. Upstairs, you will find the two spacious bedrooms and a family bathroom. The super-king-size bedroom’s sumptuous bed is irresistible. There is also a Smart TV in this room, the perfect place to relax.

Plum Tree Cottage is a wonderful place to relax. Ideally situated for a short stroll into the middle of town, we found the cottage had a home from home feel, with a great layout that really worked for us. The rainfall shower was heavenly after a day on the fells too! We would definitely recommend to anyone wanting to experience Keswick and the locaRead morel area, and never found the street parking to be an issue. Hide
