  • A light and spacious detached holiday bungalow just a short walk to the town centre of Keswick
  • Featuring a picturesque garden with stunning fell views
  • Ideally situated for families and friends exploring the northern Lake District
Property code: SZ007

Perfect for a family or friend group, this attractive, bright and airy property is located between Derwentwater and Bassenthwaite Lake, and offers light and welcoming holiday accommodation for up to six guests.

Watch tails wag with delight when your perfect pets see the generous gardens at this inviting holiday home in Great Crosthwaite, just over 0.5 miles from the centre of Keswick. A superb base for exploring the Lake District, it also makes a great retreat for a dog-loving family seeking to escape the hustle and bustle of their daily lives. Sleeping six guests, as well as a duo of delighted dogs, the three-bedroom, single-storey holiday home is in an excellent position for reaching Derwentwater, 0.5 miles away, and many other beauty spots.

Climb three steps or follow the ramp into the house and find yourselves in an open-plan lounge/diner. Watch TV in here while your pups pad about or open the French doors so you can amble in and out as you choose. Find everything you need to help you whip up tasty meals for your party in the kitchen. Feed the hungry hounds in here too and pop any damp doggy towels into the washing machine. At the end of each exciting day, make your way to either of the two king-size bedrooms, one with a wheelchair-accessible shower room, or the twin. There is also a family shower room. Wake up to glorious views every morning. Take your chums out into the garden to stretch their legs before breakfast. Dine outside on fine days. Lock bikes under the carport, using your own padlocks, and find parking for four cars at the house.

Stroll down to Derwentwater to walk along the shores or follow the 10-mile route all the way around the lake. Book places on a dog-friendly launch to fully experience the serenity of the water. Bound off at Lodore to see the waterfall or High Brandelhow to climb up to Catbells, with its astounding views.

Really nice house, comfortable and well maintained. Easy walk into Keswick, to the lake and to Portinscale and beyond. All expected contents. However, no utility room and limited storage for muddy/dirty things so bear in mind if you are planning to regularly get wet and muddy!
