The open plan layout upstairs incorporates original features such as a beamed ceiling and traditional barn style windows, whilst the kitchen is more than adequate to provide a hearty meal, though with many local country pubs offering fine ales, good food and excellent company, you may choose to leave cooking for another time. Downstairs, the double bedroom takes full advantage of the views straight from the bed, with an adjacent bathroom. Enjoy a morning coffee or evening drink in the enclosed garden and you may find yourself joined by either the resident red squirrels or one of the many wild birds that inhabit the area.

If you prefer two wheels, there are numerous quiet country lanes to journey around on, and with covered storage next to the cottage, you are free to explore whenever and however you wish.

Nearby is Hesket Newmarket, famous for its micro-brewery and where you can enjoy one of the beers at its popular local inn, a mecca for real ale drinkers. A short drive away is the market town of Keswick and neighbouring lakes Bassenthwaite and Derwent Water, perfect for a gentle walk and cooling dip for your four legged friend.
