A small yet characterful front garden has outdoor seating to enjoy that 'post hike' drink on sunny afternoons and evenings. The cottage serves as a wonderful bolthole for couples, small groups of friends or families.

New years stay
This was our 3rd stay in this lovely cottage which is deceptively large . Well styled and comfortable. Appreciated roll topped bath , well stocked kitchen and books / games . We prefer being a walk away from the crowds in Keswick but with no local shop it is a good idea to take the essentials along

Excellent cosy cottage, pub over the road and easy walk to Keswick. We will book again!
Great cottage, the Christmas tree was a lovely touch, would definitely stay again, fire was awesome.
A nice homely cottage, well equipped. Good location and base to explore the area. Great walks from the door step. Nearby chalet cafe, less than ten minute walk provides quality food and drinks. Also a stones throw from the cottage The Farmers Arms pub, serving good standard pub food.
