Pet friendly holiday cottage, sleeps 4 - Keswick, Cumbria

Sleeping four guests across two bedrooms, this holiday home lies in the heart of the vibrant market town of Keswick with its array of family-friendly amenities and independent shops within half a mile of the property. Discover the town’s heritage sites - the Keswick Museum, Derwent Pencil Museum, and Puzzle Place, a fascination house of illusions – or venture further to Castlerigg Stone Circle (2 miles). There’s also a swimming pool, cinema, and theatre in town so you’ll never be stuck for rainy-day fun.

Follow the 10-mile Derwentwater Lake Walk to see all corners of this magical lake; paths are flat and you’ll pass through leafy woods - you can even cruise along the way by boat. Step inside this cosy holiday home where the owners’ attention to detail ensures the happiest of holidays. Admire the open-plan kitchen, dining, and living area, decorated in contemporary style with calming neutrals harmonising with the original timber-beamed ceiling with brass features.

After a day wandering Wainwright trails, retreat to the comfort of your holiday home and relax with a good book in cosy seating by the electric fire before preparing delicious home-cooked feasts together in the well-equipped galley kitchen. You’ll find an electric oven and hob, fridge, microwave, dishwasher, and washing machine. Plan film nights with the TV and DVD player - you’ll find a selection of DVDs to choose from.

When the day is done, venture upstairs where there are two bedrooms with seating and storage space: a twin bedroom with books to enjoy, and a double bedroom with a dressing table. There’s also a stylish family bathroom on this floor with a shower over the bath and WC. Outside, you’ll find convenient off-road parking available for one car.

There are shops, pubs and eateries within half a mile.
