Stick chasers, rabbit sniffers and tufty-pawed scramblers will fall in love with the Borrowdale Valley in all its splendour, and where better to lay down a base than charming Rosthwaite. Situated just 6.5 miles from Keswick, this peaceful hamlet is home to a pub, tearooms and a shop that can be easily reached from your cosy apartment. Suitable for couples along with two pups, your accommodation is one of five apartments in a Victorian house.
Enter via the shared entrance and discover your cosy apartment on the ground floor. Fido will waste no time getting comfortable in the open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner, and you’ll have everything you need to prepare tasty treats in the kitchen. Relax in front of the TV or play card games at the table, slipping outside with your last cup of tea of the day to watch your hound play in the shared garden. At bedtime, there is a pretty double bedroom, and completing the property is a bathroom with a shower over the bath.
The surrounding fells provide ample walking opportunities straight from your doorstep, and just a short 4-mile drive will bring you to Derwentwater for lakeside strolls and water sports. Ideal for adventurous guests, the lake is a great location for paddleboarding, kayaking and sailing. Keswick (6.5 miles) is a treasure trove of friendly eateries, interesting shops and attractions such as a museum and the theatre by the lake. Further afield, Buttermere has some of the most famous views of the Lake District, inviting you to scamper along the footpaths and enjoy the scenery.
