Stay at this beautiful cottage in a lovely location close to Bassenthwaite and Keswick. It is ideal for families and friends looking for a relaxing back-to-nature holiday, with easy access to the amenities and attractions of the Lake District National Park. Located at the foot of dramatic Skiddaw Mountain, you are surrounded by opportunities for outdoor adventures. Dodd Wood is only 2 miles away, and perfect for spotting osprey and red squirrels on your walk in the woods. Access Bassenthwaite at Scarness Bay, less than 2 miles away, for some fun canoeing or paddleboarding. Keen walkers can head off to scale the challenging fells of Skiddaw, less than 5 miles away, and Blencathra, within 15 miles. For great family days out, The Wildlife Park is just 4 miles away, and Keswick, just 6 miles away, offers a climbing wall and the Pencil and Puzzling Place museum.
This is a delightful two-storey cottage, full of original features showcasing original wooden ceiling beams, traditional cottage‑style windows, rustic charm and contemporary creature comforts, ensuring a warm welcome and a memorable stay. Enter through the utility room/porch area, which is perfect for storing muddy boots and jackets. Downstairs, you’ll discover a handy shower room and a gorgeous open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner with striking exposed wooden ceiling beams. This is the heart of the home, a welcoming space where you can enjoy spending relaxed, quality time together. Cook up a storm in the spacious kitchen, which has all the necessary appliances and then enjoy unhurried meals and good conversation at the adjacent wooden dining table. After a day exploring the surrounding lakes and fells, head to the lounge area where you can sink into the comfortable sofas and unwind. On cooler evenings, pop a log on the wood burner, settle in and pick your favourite family film to watch on the Smart TV. Next door, you’ll find a snug, also with a TV, so everyone can find their own space. Stone steps lead you up to the marvellous bedrooms – two king-size with countryside views and two twin rooms – meaning there is plenty of choice for you and your guests. A bathroom with a shower over the bath and WC completes the interior features of this splendid cottage.
Wander outside to enjoy your naturally split area of over 1/2 an acre of the beautiful garden shared with the neighbouring cottage . The children can play on the lawn area, while the adults can relax on the private outdoor furniture with a drink and admire the breath taking views of the fells.
