2 bedroom accommodation in Bassenthwaite, near Keswick
Bassenthwaite lake, Keswick and Cockermouth are all a short distance from this lovely, two-bedroomed property, which is perfect for exploring the Lake District National Park.. 1 step to entrance.
Ground Floor:
Living room: Sky, Smart TV, Sky Movies, Sky Sports, Open Fire
Dining room: French Doors Leading To Garden
Kitchen: Electric Oven, Electric Hob, Microwave, Slow Cooker, Fridge, Dishwasher, Washing Machine
First Floor:
Bedroom 1: Double (4ft 6in) Bed, 2 x Single (3ft) Beds
Bedroom 2: ¾ Double (4ft) Bed
Bathroom: Bath With Shower Over, Heated Towel Rail, Toilet. Electic and solid fuel central heating, electricity, bed linen, towels and Wi-Fi included. Initial fuel for open fire included. Enclosed rear garden with patio and garden furniture. Private parking for 1 car. No smoking. Please note: There are 6 steps in the garden. . High Spy has fabulous views onto Bassenthwaite and the neighbouring fells, and is in a perfect location for exploring the Lake District National Park with walks for all abilities (many from the door). Switch off, relax, and unwind on the outskirts of the small village of Bassenthwaite, ideal for walking, climbing, and sightseeing. Located by a stream where ducks wander to and fro and with swings in a small, wooded area. From here, children, and the young at heart, can spend many happy hours playing pooh sticks from the bridge or sitting by the stream on the benches while you read your favourite book or have a picnic. Football and cricket can be played on the village green, or just relax and watch the world go by. Keswick is a magnet for the Lake District visitor, with Lake Derwentwater, several parks including crazy golf, mini golf and putting, all its outdoor clothing shops, cafés, restaurants, galleries, museum, cinema, theatre, brewery and more. Cockermouth, more of a ‘locals’ town has Jennings Brewery tours, Wordsworth House (the birthplace of the poet William Wordsworth), the annual food festival in September, and a good selection of unique independent shops and eateries.
The cottage is an excellent base with plenty to do and many places to eat nearby in this quieter part of the Lake District, avoiding the towns and busier villages if you prefer. You can take walks from the door down country lanes, including 2 miles to the shores of Bassenthwaite Lake, or the more adventurous can walk to Dash Waterfalls or climb Skiddaw Mountain (fourth highest mountain in the Lake District) or some of Wainwright’s other northern fells. The lakes of Loweswater, Buttermere, Crummock Water, Ennerdale, Grasmere and Rydal, Thirlmere, Ullswater and Windermere are between 25-40 minutes’ drive. Mirehouse, with its grounds and adventure playgrounds; Dodd Wood Mountain forest and café; and the ancient church of St Bega, on the shores of Bassenthwaite Lake, are under 10 minutes’ drive towards Keswick. A 5-10-minutes’ drive towards Cockermouth is the Lakes Distillery offering meals, guided tours and alpaca walking; the refurbished Bassenthwaite Lake Station where you can breakfast, lunch or snack on the grand train from the Orient Express film; The Lake District Wildlife Park, and, for those wanting to treat themselves with some pampering, there is the luxury award-winning spa at Armathwaite Hall.
