  • Inviting, one-bedroom apartment, set at the heart of the Lakeland town of Keswick
  • Ideal for independent shops, cafes and restaurants, as well fresh produce from the market
  • A great base for walking in the surrounding fells and enjoying the lake of Derwentwater
Property code: SZ166

Get away to this homely, second-floor apartment, ideally located within the colourful, market town of Keswick, with its museums and galleries, cinema and Theatre by the Lake. From here, book a trip on the lake to immerse yourselves in the beauty of the area or hire a canoe, kayak or small motorboat. Hire bicycles or go horse-riding or pony trekking. Stroll 2 miles out of town to see the famous Castlerigg Stone Circle or attempt the renowned 3.5-mile Catbells walk, which starts on the other side of the lake, 5 miles away. The Derwentwater launch stops close by for a lift back to town and also disembarks at Lingholm, where you can see the garden that inspired Beatrix Potter’s tales.

Open the door on to this welcoming apartment, head up one flight of stairs and find yourselves in an open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner, with splendid views. Return home from exciting days out to unwind in here in front of the TV with Freeview and Netflix or to enjoy a few pages of your holiday read. On chilly nights switch on the wood burner style electric fire. At mealtimes, head through to the kitchen area, with its electric oven and hob, microwave, fridge/freezer, kettle, toaster and dishwasher. Cook up tasty treats and enjoy romantic dinners as you gaze out of the window. As bedtime beckons, wander through to the bedroom, with its king-size bed. There is also an en-suite shower room, with WC and handbasin, plus a dressing area.

Climb one step up from the bedroom to let yourselves out on to the roof terrace. Enjoy breakfast out here on sunny mornings or a glass of wine as the sun goes down. Take in the view as you relax out in the fresh air. The apartment comes with parking for one car and storage for bicycles.

We had a wonderful week in Derwent Fells. Every comfort and exceptional cleanliness was enjoyed. The views are magnificent. Lovely spacious bedroom suite and comfortable bed. Location perfect. We enjoyed a visit to family run cinema across the road and regular early morning visits to Derwentwater prior to breakfast and walks later in the day.

We have stayed here many times over the past few years and have had a fantastic stay each time. Clean, quiet (despite being in Keswick town centre) and very well equipped and maintained. The owners are very friendly and helpful. We cant recommend this place enough.

Our second visit here, as it is a lovely flat in a really good position so close to the town centre. Parking is a bit tight, but a luxury to have on your doorstep here at all. Once you are parked theres no real need to move the car anyway. As long as you are capable of taking a few steepish steps on entry, this is a great property.

This is a lovely apartment in an ideal location. Very comfortable, lovely views front and back. The outdoor balcony is a brilliant feature. A dedicated parking space is also great in the centre of Keswick (although a warning that it is tight!). I loved my stay here and would love to go back.
