About this property

Discover a wonderfully spacious and well-appointed apartment for five set in a fine Victorian country house with extensive grounds. It has a wealth of character retaining many architectural features, with three bedrooms, marvellous panoramic views of the surrounding fells, and is situated just 2 miles from the vibrant and bustling market town of Keswick.

It is a perfect base for making the most of this fantastic area. A fell walker’s paradise, it sits at the base of mighty Skiddaw, the fourth largest mountain in England, and a plethora of other fells are just a short distance away. If something a little more stately is required why not take a gentler stroll around the beautiful grounds of nearby Mirehouse where you can choose from formal gardens, a wild flower meadow, a heather maze, a rhododendron tunnel, poetry walk and four adventure playgrounds in the woods. A circular walk also passes through parkland to the shores of Bassenthwaite Lake taking in the romantically-sited chapel of St Bega.

Alternatively, Keswick is a delightful town with cinema, theatre, climbing wall, shops and a fabulous choice of cafes, pubs and restaurants. Why not hire a rowing boat to explore beautiful Derwentwater or hop in to one of the launches to take in the glorious views? All in all, this apartment is an extremely elegant and comfortable jumping-off point for all that the Lake District has to offer.

On arrival, you are greeted by a long leafy driveway leading up to the beautiful shared grounds and imposing facade of the Victorian house. There is shared access thorough the large front door through which you will find a spacious hallway. Upstairs is the entrance to the apartment. Once inside the apartment you are greeted by a beautiful grandfather clock and the entrances to the living room, the kitchen /dining room and the single bedroom. There is also a convenient WC on this floor.

The elegant living room has two lovely sash windows, with a stunning view across to Keswick, Borrowdale and Derwentwater itself. The room is handsomely furnished and also has a TV and DVD. Double doors from the hallway lead to the dining area and well-equipped kitchen. The kitchen has a dishwasher, fridge/freezer, microwave and washing machine. It also benefits from a built-in oven and halogen hobs. There is a lovely window seat here to sit and enjoy a view of the grounds and visiting birdlife.

From the hallway you ascend the wide staircase to the second floor. Above your head you'll see some of the wonderful architectural features of this stunning Victorian building. From the upper landing you first come to the spacious twin with en-suite bathroom with bath and hand-held shower. This lovely room has views out onto the leafy grounds. Then you'll find the exquisite king-size room, this has two tall sash windows with that glorious, far-reaching view to Derwentwater and beyond to the Borrowdale valley. This room also benefits from a beautiful en-suite shower room with large walk-in shower enclosure.

Outside, guests can enjoy the wonderful shared terraced garden and pond area which overlooks a magnificent panorama of mountains. What more perfect place to enjoy a morning coffee or an evening glass of wine?
