About this property
Enjoy the best of both worlds with this town centre dwelling in the heart of the rural and spectacular Lake District National Park.
Ideally placed for making the most of everything this bustling market town has to offer, find a host of shops, cafes, pubs and restaurants together with museums, a cinema and theatre right on the doorstep. Stroll to Derwentwater to jump on board one of its regular launch services, enjoying a scenic cruise or hopping on and off at its various landing stations including Lodore for the waterfall, Ashness Gate for Surprise View and Lingholm for Beatrix Potter s walled garden. Slightly further afield, a 9 mile drive will bring you to Honister Slate Mine with its underground tours and Infinity Bridge, while 17 miles away, the attractive town of Penrith offers a good mixture of independent and high street shops and eateries.
