Description

Having undergone comprehensive refurbishment to an exceptional standard this stylish bungalow is sure to impress with great attention to detail throughout and guest comfort at the forefront. The warm and welcoming open-plan living space is perfect for family and friends to come together for a sociable holiday. The lounge has two comfy sofas, easy chair, bespoke coffee table, and a cosy log burning stove to enjoy after a day on the fells.

The modern, well-appointed kitchen has all you would expect including an induction hob, large fridge freezer and integrated dishwasher, plus some indulgent little extras such as a Nespresso coffee maker and Ninja air fryer.

The dining space includes solid oak dining table, six chairs, and Herdy placemats.

The two bedrooms, one with a king-size bed, the other with twin divans, have fitted wardrobes and oak furniture and come beautifully dressed with luxury linen and towels.

A spacious bathroom, with separate bath and shower, completes the living space. Complimentary fast broadband is available throughout the property.

The back door leads to a utility room with everything you need to wash and dry your outdoor gear and there is additional locked storage (by arrangement) in the garage for bikes & kayaks.

With gardens to front and back and ample parking we hope our cottage is your perfect home from home. The back garden is a tranquil setting with picnic table and a beck on the boundary – the perfect place to relax and enjoy some sunshine.

It would be easy to park up and enjoy a jam-packed car-free holiday. Braithwaite amenities include three lovely pubs serving food and local ales, village shop and a tearoom. There’s nearby Whinlatter Forest along with a huge selection of walks and outdoor activities to choose from, a nearby bus stop with routes taking you all over the Lake District, and Keswick town centre only minutes away.

Reviews

Causey View (when the rainclouds allowed)
Great location in Braithwaite and well appointed cottage with nice, shiny bath (welcome after a day on the fells) and lots of useful equipment for home cooking - would have been great to have had a few more baking trays to put multiple roasting items in the oven but the air fryer worked really well, so maybe not needed for most people. Nice and well-cleaned with plenty of boot and waterproofs drying space in the utility room, loads of coat hanging hooks too - really useful and surprisingly overlooked in many other cottages in which we have stayed over the years. Ambient background lighting for evenings - a reading light would be a great addition to the lounge/sitting room area for planning th enext day's ventures but minor and plenty of room to spread the map out on the table. All of the key elements for a superb stay and a homely feeling to the place that makes it feel very welcoming. Overall, very satisfied, would definitely stay here again and recommend to friends wanting to find a good base in Braithwaite, which is a great base for walking the NW fells from the door, with plenty of choices to eat out in the evening within 5mins walk too.

Hi Andrew, Thank you for your review. Causey View in the village of Braithwaite is the perfect base for a holiday in the Lakes. It is only a short distance from Keswick with all it's quirky, independent shops and Derwentwater where you can take the launch round the lake. Braithwaite itself has lots to offer from fell walks right from your doorstep, Go Ape up at Whinlatter and several pubs serving good food and traditional ales. The cottage itself is finished to a high standard and is a real home from home. Best wishes, Keswick Cottages

Great Cottage in Great Location
Really comfortable and cosy cottage that's well equipped. Location is great - really quiet and yet very close to local facilities as well as lots of walking. Views are also lovely.

Hi Janet, Thank you for your review. Causey View is in the lovely village of Braithwaite just outside of Keswick. Braithwaite has lots of great local amenities such as a village shop, 2 pubs and a café. There are plenty of things you can do right from the door step like bagging a couple of Wainwrights, Barrow and Grisedale Pike or for for the more adventurous there is Go Ape and Forest Segways up at Whinlatter Visitor Centre. Keswick is only a few mile walk away or a 5 minute car journey. We hope you ha a fantastic stay, whatever you got up to! Best wishes, Keswick Cottages

Perfect place to stay in the lake district, quiet, cozy and with all the amenities necessary for a good stay. I recommend.
We had an absolutely wonderful stay at your property! The place is beautifully maintained and exceeded all our expectations. The attention to detail, cleanliness, and cozy ambiance made our visit so relaxing and enjoyable. The location was perfect, offering stunning views and peaceful surroundings, which made it even more special for our anniversary trip. We truly appreciated the thoughtful touches and how well-equipped the property was—it felt like a home away from home. Thank you so much for being such a kind and attentive host. Your warm hospitality made our stay even more memorable. We would love to return in the future and highly recommend your property to anyone looking for a beautiful and serene getaway!
Amazing holiday in such a lovely bungalow, fantastic location. Would return.
