Overview
Leave your everyday routine behind and enjoy a trip to the magical Lake District. Keswick is a top destination for walking holidays family-friendly getaways and trips with loved ones. Enjoy evenings out and visit one of the town's many pubs before soaking up some culture at the Theatre by the Lake which is less than a mile from your door so you can savour a tipple and wander home. If little ones are joining you an easy hike up the mountain of Catbells is a great way to spend the day. Make the 4.5-mile trip in the car or jump on a boat at the local launch and arrive at Hawse End to begin your adventure. Steps from the pavement lead you inside this welcoming home which has been in the owner's family for four generations and where you will find sociable spaces to fill with activity. Home to the lounge and the kitchen/diner the ground floor creates an inviting heart of the house where you can spend quality time relaxing together and cosy up in front of the Smart TV for a chilled night in. When it's time to prepare for dinner enjoy cooking up a storm in the stylish and fresh kitchen where the back door offers level access to the outside. The dining chairs add vibrant splashes of colour to liven up this sleek space where you will find all you need to cater for every occasion. Upstairs the pair of bedrooms are snug yet bright and provide you with a peaceful spot to drift off for the night.
