Discover this furry-friendly hideaway in the northern Lake District, an enviable place to escape with man's best friend by your side. This six-person property also welcomes two dogs, inviting the whole pack to get out and explore Cumbria's famed National Park together. Pack your puppy treats and a pocketful of tennis balls before heading out to hike the surrounding hills, with Fido leading the way up Blencathra (7.5 miles), Skiddaw (5 miles) and Grisedale Pike (5 miles). When it's time to head home, you'll find yourself right in the heart of Keswick, with takeaways, restaurants and pet-friendly pubs all within 0.5 miles.
This fabulous apartment occupies a Georgian building with traditional beamed ceilings and lovely views in every direction. Head up to the second-floor accommodation, where everything you need is arranged across a split-level layout. The open-plan living space invites you to settle in for the evening, listening to the comforting hum of your sleeping pets while you cook, dine and watch TV. When it's time to retire, leave sleeping dogs to lie and discover two bedrooms – a king-size and a zip-and-link super-king-size/twin – accompanied by two well-designed bathrooms. Outside, alongside private parking, the property benefits from a large, shared garden where pups can run around, provided they get along with the neighbouring dogs.
Wander through Keswick, taking in its lively town centre and traditional Lakeland architecture while enjoying a portion of fish and chips or an ice cream from a local shop. Put on your walking boots and follow the old railway line to Threlkeld (4 miles) or stroll along the banks of the River Greta (0.5 miles), enjoying the gentle tumble of the flowing water. Derwentwater is just 0.5 miles from home, a place for leisurely dog walks, boat trips and spotting local wildlife.
