Nestled on the shores of Derwentwater, Keswick is a popular market town with visitors to the Lake District. The main street is lined with shops including popular independent and high street favourite outdoor equipment shops. There are numerous tea rooms and cafes serving up delicious treats, and pubs and restaurants offering mouth watering meals washed down with a local ale. Keswick has 2 popular parks, Fitz Park and Hope Park both offering various activities including crazy golf and tennis. If golf is your thing, then golfers will delight in the Keswick Golf Course, with what is often described as the most scenic golf course in England.

Being on the shores of the lake, you can meander down to the shoreline and enjoy a cruise around the lake taking in the majestic mountains towering above, or hire a row boat, try paddle boarding and other water sport based activities. The market town of Cockermouth and the popular Lake District village of Grasmere are both within a 15 minute drive, with Ambleside and Windermere within half an hours drive. Bassenthwaite Lake is 3 miles north with The Lake District Wildlife Park being a great day out for young and old.

The dining kitchen equipped with electric oven and hob, fridge/freezer and microwave. Bathroom with shower over bath, hand basin and WC. Bedroom with king size bed.

All electric, bed linen and towels provided. Cot available. Parking permit for nearby car park. Small rear yard with table and chairs.

This downstairs apartment is in a great location for central Keswick being about a 2 minute walk for the centre.
There is on street parking on a first come first served basis but is not needed as there is a car permit for one car in the church car park behind the apartment which can be accessed easily from the backdoor.
The apartment is a little dated but I feel this is reflected in the price.
There is also a small gated courtyard at the rear which the dog can't escape from. This has a small table and chairs and gets full sun from early afternoon until sunset.
Kitchen is well equipped and has the basics already there like salt, pepper, dish washing materials, etc.
The bathroom has bath and electric shower so have choice of either.
Overall, I would stop here again and thoroughly enjoyed my stay.
