  • An attractive and spacious ground-floor family holiday apartment
  • Overlooking the spellbinding landscape of the Newlands Valley
  • Perfectly situated between Derwentwater, Buttermere and Crummock Water
Property code: OC-SZ351

Immerse yourselves in the stunning beauty of the Lake District when you take your perfect pets with you to this enticing holiday apartment near Little Town, about 5 miles from Keswick. Sleeping four guests, as well as a pair of pups, this inviting, two-bedroom, ground-floor retreat sits within a former barn that nestles in a simply idyllic location. Grab the leads and strike out from here through the magnificent and verdant Newlands Valley. Venture 3 miles to set tails wagging with all – or a section of – the 10-mile, circular walk around Derwentwater.

Open the front door to this handsome stone holiday home after each of your Lakeland walks and call your four-legged friends through into the open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner. Settle in here with them for a while in front of your favourite TV programme or call them over to the kitchen area to give them a well-earned drink of water and a hearty dinner. Prepare something for everyone else to enjoy over at the dining table and pop any damp doggy towels into the washing machine. Settle your cheerful chums for the night then lay your head in either the double bedroom, with an en-suite bathroom, or the twin room, with an en-suite shower room. Wake up each morning to take your delighted dogs for a morning stroll before returning for breakfast and a cup of tea out in the sunshine at the table in front of the apartment. You also have shared storage space for cycles and outdoor equipment, and parking for two cars.

Stride out from home with your happy hounds bounding beside you to see the Moss Force Waterfall, just under 3 miles from the apartment. Walk or drive 5 miles to scenic Buttermere to take furry feet on an exciting 4.5-mile loop of the enchanting lake here.

A lovely cottage with great views. Very clean and all the equipment you'll need. Unfortunately there is no WiFi so unable to search for walks or days out in the area. Also no signal to ring either.

This cottage is in a fantastic location and we stayed with friends, with plenty of space for both couples. The layout worked really well, especially having en-suite bathrooms for both rooms. It had everything we needed and was spotlessly clean. Be aware that this is part of a complex of lets and so sometimes noise from other guest can be heard.

A well equipped cottage in a super location for walking in the Newlands Valley, Buttermere and surrounding fells. A bit noisy at times from the footsteps of the property above, but not a big deal. Wonderful views out front to Catbells, Maiden Moor, High Spy etc, but rather a shame that there wasnt really anywhere outside to sit and enjoy them otherRead more than a picnic bench in the parking area. Not having wifi or phone signal was rather more of an irritation than we had thought that it would be! Hide

Beautiful views but not a very comfortable stay. No service or WiFi inside the cottage so you have to walk outside just to send a text. Maintenance needs to be done here so be cautious of that.

Lovely scenery. The cottage was very clean and comfortable and the electric fire quickly warmed the room.

Great location with outstanding views and walks from the doorstep. Well equipped, modern kitchen and bathrooms that were adequate for a weeks stay. Small issue with the heating that the owner had rectified swiftly. Some noise from the apartment above (footsteps etc), but nothing too bad and certainly didn't cause any issues.
