. Mount Pleasant is the pièce de résistance of our larger properties in the Northern Lakes. It’s got it all, location, views, south facing, the finest quality, space, garden and pub nearby. Renovated and luxuriously refurbished, including sumptuous carpets, bespoke hand-built kitchen and stunning Victorian style family bathrooms, and situated in the village of Threlkeld with views in every direction, from St John’s in the Vale and Clough Head to the front and the mighty Blencathra towering behind. Built from slate with a brown hue, mined locally and unique to Threlkeld, this impressive detached house enjoys the sun all day long and has phenomenal views from every room. There are two cracking pubs in the village, one with a restaurant and one serving bar meals. Keswick is 3 miles and access to the M6 is only 15 minutes drive. For those travelling on public transport there are regular buses from Penrith train station which drop you right outside the property, and continue in to Keswick. The owner also has the following properties, Mary’s Cottage (111378), Marley’s Den (111286), Tommy’s Cottage (111367), Elmcot (112123), James’s Cottage (111398) and 22 Rose Terrace (111418)

Great house and village. We loved our stay. Quality of fixture and fittings impressive. The house was clean but would benefit from a deep clean, particularly the showers. The amount of “little extras” (washing-up liquid, dishcloths, welcome box etc) was unimpressive. Overall we did enjoy the week and will return.
