This delightful, detached stone cottage, dating back to 1850, is ideal for friends or families, and three canine companions, seeking a relaxing base to explore the surrounding fells and lakes. The property is just 2.5 miles from the vibrant market town of Keswick, where you’ll find a variety of shops, pubs and places to eat. Your pups can lead the way up Latrigg, which is accessible from your door, while the more challenging Catbells is 5 miles away.
Enter this inviting single-level property and head through the hall to the spacious lounge/diner. Your hounds will sleep close to the wood burner, while you relax in the comfortable seating for a chat or to watch a show on the Smart TV. Art, colourful soft furnishings and shelves full of books create a real home-from-home feel. Gather at the dining table to enjoy delicious meals prepared in the adjacent fully equipped kitchen, with Shaker-style cabinets. A sleek contemporary bathroom and three bedrooms - two attractive king-size (one with an en-suite shower room) and a lovely twin - complete the interior features. Outside, the large, fully enclosed garden features a patio, furniture, and a BBQ, ideal for dining alfresco. At a raised level is a large lawn, ideal for hounds to play. There is private parking for three cars.
Derwentwater and Bassenthwaite are nearby if you want to take to the water, kayaking, canoeing, sailing, windsurfing, swimming or rowing, or have a relaxed day onboard one of the regular launches for a cruise across the water. For a walk leading to a magnificent waterfall, set tails wagging with a visit to Aria Force (15 miles). There’s nothing like a good run in the woods, and your pups will thank you for taking them to play in Whinlatter Forest (7 miles).
