    Enjoy a relaxing break with Keswick holiday cottages

    Located in the heart of the Lake District National Park, Keswick is a market town full of charm and beauty.

    Surrounded by crystal-clear lakes, majestic mountains, dramatic peaks, and breathtaking countryside, Keswick is a haven for hikers, nature lovers, and those looking to get away from it all. Plus, with attractions such as the Keswick Museum and Art Gallery, the Pencil Museum, and the mysterious Castlerigg Stone Circle, you won't be short of things to do.

    You'll need the perfect Keswick holiday cottage to complete your lake adventure. And that's where we come in. At Snaptrip, we have scoured this pretty destination to find only the best holiday homes. From cute little cottages tucked away down quiet streets ideal for a romantic getaway to spacious traditional houses with private gardens ideal for a family break.

    Just choose the perfect accommodation to suit your needs, make yourself at home, and head out to explore the stunning local countryside.

    Why choose a Keswick weekend break or staycation?

    A trip to Keswick is the ideal way to get away from the stresses of everyday life. Away from the hustle and bustle, Keswick offers the chance to relax, breathe in the fresh country air, and lose yourself in its exquisite natural beauty.

    One of the main reasons people flock to the Lake District is to see the stars of the show - the lakes.

    Keswick is located between two lakes, Bassenthwaite Lake and Derwentwater. Lake Derwentwater is a ten-minute walk from the town and makes for an epic day out. The lake measures eight miles in total and offers incredible views of the surrounding mountains. You can go for a bracing walk, take a gentle stroll, or even go on a lake cruise where you can hop on and off to take in the surroundings.

    Bassenthwaite Lake is slightly further away and sits under the shadow of Skiddaw. It's less populated and busy than Derwentwater, and there are walks along several parts of the shoreline.

    The town of Keswick has everything you could want from a small (but lively) market town. It's a quaint town brimming with authentic old shops and ancient pubs. With an excellent selection of boutiques, cafes, tearooms, and restaurants, you can shop till you drop and reward yourself with a traditional cream tea.

    It also has some of the best hiking routes in the whole of the Lake District nearby, so it's a haven for keen walkers and hikers. If you're looking for a slightly easier hike than the mighty Scafell Pike (the highest and most prominent mountain in England), Catbells is a popular fell (a prominent hill) which has a height of 451 metres and is only three miles from Keswick.

    There are lots of brilliant attractions to keep you busy, including Puzzling Place which is packed with fantastic optical illusions, Fitz Park Playground, the famous Pencil Museum, which demonstrates why Keswick was the world centre of pencil manufacturing, and the elegant Theatre by the Lake. If you're visiting in May, you can watch or take part in the Keswick Mountain Festival, which combines open water swims, triathlons, hill runs, live music, and a festive atmosphere.

    More attractions close by include Castlerigg Stone Circle, the Bowder Stone, and Honister Slate Mine, where you can venture down into the mines.

    Whether you want to go for a Keswick weekend break and take in the sites and attractions of the town, or use your cottage as a base to explore everything else the Lake District has to offer, our Keswick accommodations have everything you need.

    Find your dream Keswick holiday rental

    There are lots of reasons to choose one of our Keswick self-catering properties for your next unforgettable getaway. Forget camping; Keswick holiday cottages offer all the home comforts, including fully-equipped kitchens, flat-screen TVs, free WiFi, private gardens, comfy beds, and even extra special touches such as hot tubs.

    Unlike hotels, each of our carefully chosen cottages is unique, bursting with character and often has its own fascinating story to tell. Plus, you have all the comforts you could want to help you unwind and feel at home.

    Whether you're looking for a romantic hideaway, something for the family, a dog-friendly cottage, or a large property to accommodate an intrepid hiking or cycling party, at Snaptrip, we'll help you find your dream holiday home.

    Why book your Keswick accommodation with Snaptrip?

    What our customers say about their holidays

    • Ritchie - Verified booking

      Ground Settings and views stunning.

      The whole place over all was very charming and a good base for us to explore the surrounding areas and relax in between.. lovely views to wake up to . Whole experience only Let down by a few things. 1. The room was generally cold. Heating pre programmed with control from us, and not coming on nearly enough for what was a cold Easter weekend. Only one radiator in the room and it was also set to a low heat. We had to open the bathroom door to try and heat the main space as it was the only warm room in the house. We called through to reception a few times to ask but no answer. Also sometimes no hot water so had to have Luke warm shower. 2. Towels were old with one having a tear in it. 3. Some simple essential things like salt and pepper, tea bags etc go a long way when renting a place and not have to go out and buy all these things when travelling. It makes a massive difference and this could easily be provided 4. The noise coming from the other flats was at times very intrusive. Walls etc are paper thin and you can hear everything. We had a family with young kids next to us that seemed unaware of how thin the walls are. Maybe customers can be made aware of this and asked to keep noise down? 4. There wasn't adequate cleaning materials. Just one dish sponge and an almost empty bottle of fairy liquid that I had to add water to. Again a simple and cheap thing to provide so we don't have to go out and buy all this for just a few nights stay. 5. Cooker was awful. Took forever to heat up. 6.TV must be 20yrs old and needs updating. 7.internet was shocking. I know place is rural so maybe can't be helped. I needed to do some work and at times was unusable. Seemed to always go down at night? Maybe something to pre warn customers before booking as if essential work was needed done then this would have been a problem. 8. Bed was very comfortable but pillows not great. Again, a lovely place. Friendly and helpful staff. Glad we stayed, but will look elsewhere next time given the above issues.

    • Carla - Verified booking

      The accommodation wasn't quite as listed and this made a big difference to our stay.

      The 'private' terrace wasn't private as there was an adjoining suite which used the same area. This also meant that when you opened the main curtains they could walk past which meant the room wasn't private either. There was also a locked door that led from our room into the hotel, which wasn't used and made us feel a bit uncomfortable. Unfortunately we thought the suite was separate from the hotel but it wasn't and the walls were very thin which meant we heard a lot of noise from above and to the side of us. The cleanliness was also not up to standard, especially as they currently have more time to clean due to covid. There were stains on the towels, dead bug marks on the wall, stains on the carpet and hairs in the bath. The bathroom was also not finished, the ceiling wasn't painted and there was a tile missing on the wall. This room has an incredible view which is brilliant but the overall quality of the room did not meet our expectations or the price we paid.

    • Mark - Verified booking

      Location of the property was perfect for our needs.

      Owners, when required, were keen to offer a pleasing service. However we booked as we could share the hotel facilities but only breakfast was on offer, which if we had known wouldn’t have booked. For me the accommodation was caught between self catering and hotel room but offered neither. No toaster, hoover or brush for the dust pan to keep clean, with muddy boots this was required. Just needed a tidy up and some fans in the kitchen and bathroom. Didn’t effect our stay and an enjoyable week but we wouldn’t go back in it’s current state.

    • Miss Haworth - Verified booking

      Me and my partner had a wonderful time here. We came for my birthday celebration, 2 nights and 3 days. And we’ve loved our time here. We will be coming back and definitely recommend it to our friends and family. The area is nice, not too far away from the threlkeld to Keswick railway walk which was very good that we did one morning. And good driving distance from the major Lake District places, such as we visited pooley bridge, Keswick, Windermere, bowness, and Kendal. Thank you to the owners for all they have done. It’s been amazing.

    • Mr Wiseman - Verified booking

      A wonderful location and luxurious cabins perfect for a romantic getaway. We had a lovely time and you are surrounded by the lovely area with plenty of nature to soak in and a hot tub to soak yourself in after. Sharps edge was a perfect cabin for the two of us, clean and well kept with a great powerful shower and a hot tub to rest those aching feet after a days walking. The views are beautiful and we both would recommend as a romantic getaway. The small kitchenette allowed us to have a fry up!
