Enjoy a fabulous holiday without venturing far from your door. With plenty of places to enjoy meals out, a tipple or two, or to spend rainy days, Keswick and it’s pretty streets are lined with pubs and attractions. When visiting the Lake District, it’s a must to book on a cruise and take to the water. Perfectly positioned for exploring Derwentwater, hop on a boat at the local marina (1.5 miles) or hire your own and make a splash! For panoramic views with a climb that is not too strenuous, walk to Castlerigg Stone Circle (1.5 miles) for far-reaching vistas and a mountainous backdrop. If you fancy a family-friendly night out of the house, visit the Theatre by the Lake or the local cinema.

Make your way inside after strolling the terrace which is shared with the neighbouring properties and head into the inviting open-plan living space. After a long journey put your feet up by the wood burner and enjoy a cosy moment in front of the TV/DVD. If you fancy taking in the views whilst delving into a book, then find a spot on the window seat and watch the world go by. Flowing through to the sleek kitchen/diner, find everything you need to cook up a storm, including a fan oven, ceramic hobs, a microwave, dishwasher, and a large fridge/freezer, and make use of the handy washer/dryer so you can clean muddy clothes fresh from adventures. After enjoying meals together at the table, climb to the first and second floors to rest your head. Treated to an en-suite shower room, the master bedroom has a double bed, TV and sumptuous decor to help whisk you off to sleep. On the first floor, you can also find the contemporary family bathroom with WC where you are invited to enjoy a soak or a rinse off in the shower over the bath. On the second floor, the tranquil twin bedroom (can be made up as a super-king-size bed if requested when booking) has quirky sloping ceilings and panoramic views of fells including Skiddaw. Spend a lazy morning in bed with the TV switched on before descending downstairs to get ready for the day ahead.

Take a mug of coffee outside to the small front patio where you can spend time in the fresh air whilst your dogs stretch their legs. Register for free parking in the local car park 24 hours before arriving.

We loved our stay! Perfect location for exploring the town and the fells, close to the bus stop and the park. We ticked off 14 wainwrights on our trip and this was the perfect place to relax and recuperate after long walks! The kitchen had everything we needed and the beds were super comfortable! Worth noting the outside space isnt inclosed so dogsRead more have to be on a lead, and theyre not allowed in the bedrooms/on sofa. Ours enjoyed being in front of the log burner on the chilly nights.

The cottage was located in the heart of Keswick so easy access to the town and Fitz park. Parking permit worked well and car park close to the property. Some difficultly with a pram as had to use back door. Cottage was lovely and cosy, very clean and tidy. Enjoyed a great week at this property.

Cottage was very clean, comfortable and well appointed. Although overlooking the car park the cottage is well screened with a seating area so was not an intrusion at all. Location is perfect for all in Keswick, no need to use the car unless going further afield. Comes with parking permit. Would definitely recommend

Really nice cottage, location wise it is quite literally a stones throw from the town centre. There's a small gravelled area at the front to sit out on. The bedrooms are a good size, though the stairs are a bit steep in the loft and limited headroom in places but its a good size space up there, we had a cot up and there was plenty of space for thatRead more. Overall a really nice place to stay. Hide

This is a lovely cottage in a great location. I would agree with some earlier reviews in that it was a shame there wasnt anything there on arrival (empty tea and coffee jars) but maybe this isnt how things are done anymore. I would also point out that the photos do make the cottage (albeit lovely) appear bigger than it is, and I felt the downstairsRead more was more catered for 2 people than 4. If anyone is taking pets, just bear in mind there isnt an enclosed garden. All being said, it is lovely. Hide

Located centrally in the town, perfect for shopping. The carpark is just across the road, but finding a space can be difficult at peak times. The outside has no secure fenced area for pets, but there is a park, just across the road. Very warm and comfortable accommodation.
