Tucked away in the heart of town yet close to open countryside, this welcoming cottage gives easy access to both local life and Lake District walking routes, making it a great base for couples or solo travellers exploring with a four-legged friend. Independent shops, cafes and traditional pubs are within 100 metres, handy for grabbing supplies before heading out on riverside and lakeside adventures.
Inside, this mid-terrace cottage blends Lakeland character with modern comfort. Step straight into a cosy living area where a wood burner takes centre stage, creating a welcoming setting after days spent outdoors with your four-pawed pal. Sink into the sofa for a film on the Smart TV, or prepare meals in the well-equipped kitchen before dining at the breakfast bar. Upstairs, the double bedroom provides a calm resting spot, complete with exposed brickwork, a feature fireplace and its own Smart TV. The bathroom includes both a bath and a shower, giving you the choice of a long soak or a quick rinse after muddy trails. To the rear, a shared garden with a lawn and planted borders provides a peaceful corner for morning tea or an evening drink, while your faithful friend rests nearby. Parking is available via a local permit, along with two first-come, first-served off-street spaces directly outside the property.
From here, Derwentwater lies just under a mile away, where waterside paths lead to gentle strolls and longer rambles with your pawed explorer. Friar’s Crag (0.5 miles) is close by for sweeping lake views, while more demanding outings can be found on Blencathra (7 miles) or Latrigg Fell (1.5 miles), both well suited to energetic pups with curious noses. Castlerigg Stone Circle (1.5 miles) adds a dramatic prehistoric backdrop, while boat trips across Derwentwater open up further shoreline walks and hidden picnic spots to sniff out.
