Description

The heart of Rock Lynn is the lounge: homely and bright, with two comfortable leather settees and a lovely open fireplace, perfect for cosy winter nights.

There are fabulous views towards the fells from the main bay window and side window. This is a perfect room to relax and unwind in while enjoying the views of the surrounding fells and village.

The newly-refurbished kitchen-diner is fully fitted and very well equipped, including a hob, oven, fridge, freezer, dishwasher, and microwave, with a dining table and four chairs. French doors lead to the private patio area.

Off the kitchen there is a useful utility area with a washing machine, tumble dryer, and plenty of space to store walking gear after a day on the fells.

There are two very comfortable bedrooms. The front double bedroom boasts a superking bed, and an en-suite shower room with shower, WC and wash hand basin.

The second bedroom has two single beds and an en-suite bathroom with bath, WC and wash hand basin.

Both bedrooms have zip-linked beds which means that either room can be made up as a double or a twin room. If you require a change in configuration of beds (eg two doubles or two twin rooms) a charge of £15.00 will be made.

The bedrooms will be made up with luxury white bed linen and towels for your arrival.

This is a lovely, bright bungalow with plenty of space, private parking to the front for up to four cars, a private patio to the side with picnic bench and the most incredible views towards numerous fells.

Rock Lynn is an ideal property where you can escape and relax, but within striding distance of the pubs, the village shop and a range of walking routes.

To the back of the bungalow there is a steep grassed area where you can enjoy a panoramic view of the fells.

The property now features a wood fired hot tub for no extra charge. Logs are provided.

Braithwaite is a cosy, close-knit village just outside of Keswick. With a village shop, three local pubs, and plenty of walks right on your doorstep, you won’t even need to leave the village.

If you’re looking to venture out into the Lake District without a car, Braithwaite is serviced by the X4 and X5 bus services, running all the way from Workington to Penrith, linking Braithwaite to local train stations.

What a view
We absolutely loved our week at the cottage. It is comfortable and has what you need. We really appreciated the welcome gifts as well. Booked already to go back.

Hi, Julie! Rock Lynn is just absolutely fabulous, in every way possible. It's such a popular property, and with views like that and a wood-fired hot tub, it's so easy to see why! We like to make sure that guests have everything they need for a good brew when they first arrive, and a little thank you from us and the owners for choosing Rock Lynn. We cannot wait to see you again, and thank you so much for your kind review. Best wishes, Keswick Cottages

Hi, Craig! Yes, Rock Lynn is a really popular property for a reason! I mean, what's better than a wood-fired hot tub, with views like that? Rock Lynn is so cosy, grounding you in the rural, relaxing feeling of the Lake District, with added luxuries that make your stay extra special. Shall we expect a call to book your next visit?

Just Wonderful!
Our 10th visit to this lovely bungalow in a wonderful location with glorious views. Spacious bedrooms both of which are en-suite. Good sized kitchen with utility room at the rear of the property. Lovely lounge with gorgeous views. Can't fault it!

Hi, Louise! Ten visits — that honestly warms our hearts more than you can imagine. It means the world to us that Rock Lynn has become such a trusted, well?loved place for you. That wonderful location and those glorious views really are something special, and it’s lovely to hear they still make an impression even after so many stays. We’re so glad the layout continues to work perfectly for you too. The spacious en?suite bedrooms, the generous kitchen with the handy utility room, and that cosy lounge looking out over those gorgeous views — it’s a combination we’re very fond of, so it’s wonderful to know it keeps hitting the mark for you. Thank you for taking the time to share such kind words and for returning to Rock Lynn time and time again. Guests like you make what we do feel incredibly rewarding. We hope visit number eleven isn’t too far away. Best wishes, Keswick Cottages

Cosy well equipped and located cottage, a perfect base for walking, pubs and access to Keswick’s amenities.
After Christmas we booked another stay at Rock Lynn. A wonderful property in a great little village just outside of Keswick. The ideal property as a base for walks or just a week's peace and quiet. Some great walks and strolls from the front door, and we took advantage of its perfect location....and the property was spotlessly clean. All in all, another great week.
Another lovely stay with Keswick Cottages. Rock Lynn was clean, tidy, and well equipped with lovely walks direct from the door, and a pub and shop just down the road in Braithwaite. The driveway and garden are steep and could be a problem if you have mobility issues!
