Leading on from the kitchen is a utility room with washing machine and dryer, and separate w.c. Upstairs there are three good size bedrooms – two doubles and a twin.

Private parking is available next to the property and storage is available for bicycles.

Situation
The property is situated in the centre of the beautiful village of Braithwaite, two miles from the Lakeland market town of Keswick on Derwentwater. The village is overlooked by the Coledale Horseshoe, an impressive semi-circle of Lakeland fells which is a famous walking route. There is a shop within the village, along with two pubs serving home cooked meals and Cumbrian ales. Keswick has a wide selection of shops, restaurants, cafes, museums and galleries. There is also the famous Theatre by the Lake. Bassenthwaite Lake is approximately four miles away and Buttermere and Crummock Water are only a short drive away.

There are superb walks from the door round the Coledale Horseshoe, up Newlands Valley or over Whinlatter Forest. There are also mountain bike trails through the Forest.
