About this property
Just 2.5 miles from the heart of Whinlatter Forest Park, spend your days exploring on two feet or two wheels. Follow one of many tracks and trails and keep your eyes peeled for osprey or entertain brave guests with a trip to Go Ape where a treetop challenge, high ropes and zip lines are just a few activities on offer. From Braithwaite, explore the Wainwright Fells on the 9.5-mile-long Coledale Horseshoe loop before rewarding yourself with a tasty meal or a cold pint at a local pub. Just 2.5 miles from Keswick, otherwise known as the Adventure Capital of England, make the short trip for a boat ride on Derwentwater, a night at the movies or for a vast selection of places to grab dinner.
Arrive at this pretty cottage and make yourself at home right away. The open-plan kitchen/diner welcomes you inside with sleek style and all you need to rustle up a feast. With Belfast sink, under-counter fridge with freezer compartment, dishwasher, microwave, washer/dryer, electric oven and gas hob, there is no shortage of handy appliances to help make your stay one to remember. After dinner, spend time together in the lounge where you can sink into a sofa or a chair in front of the wood burner. With a TV/DVD and docking station, enjoy nights in this cosy space. Three bedrooms reside on the first floor so after climbing stairs you can rest your head and drift off. A pair of king-size bedrooms are light and tranquil and the third bedroom has adult-sized bunk beds. All beds are made up with sumptuous Egyptian cotton bedding, perfect for a comfortable night’s sleep. Rise and shine and enjoy a luxurious soak in the free-standing, roll-top bath, or freshen up in the shower in the family bathroom with WC.
Take a warming mug of coffee or a chilled tipple outside to the rear patio where you can sit on the furniture and bask in the fresh air. A ramp leads to the enclosed garden and a covered walkway leads to a handy outbuilding with WC. There is ample unrestricted parking on the street.
