This welcoming abode is great for couples looking to escape their everyday routine. Enjoy a slice of Lakeside living and wander down to the shores of Derwentwater from this holiday let.

Stroll 2 miles above the bustling town of Keswick to Castlerigg Stone Circle to stretch your legs and take in amazing views. Slightly further afield, Catbells (5 miles) is a moderate climb rewarded with more panoramic views. Explore Derwentwater by boarding a cruise from the local marina or hire your own boats or paddleboards and make a splash. If the rain interrupts your stay, Keswick has an interesting pair of museums, climbing wall and a cinema to keep you entertained. For a wonderful night out, leave the car behind and book a table at an eatery in town before watching a show at the Theatre by the Lake (less than half a mile from this retreat).

Climb the external staircase to reach this first-floor apartment. Greeted by the open-plan living space, admire the characterful, exposed beams and stylish decor before settling down on the inviting sofa. Light the wood burner and watch your favourite programme on the Smart TV and enjoy a relaxing evening. Delve into one of the books for some peace and quiet and plan your next adventure. The kitchen area is equipped with a double electric oven, a slimline dishwasher, fridge/freezer and microwave. The spacious king-size bedroom has an ornamental fireplace and boasts views across to Catbells. There is also a shower room with WC.

Sip your morning coffee alfresco or enjoy meals on the roof terrace which has outdoor furniture, please take care and do not go near the edge. There is designated parking for one car which is accessed via an archway.

Wainwright's Loft was perfect for us and met our every need. The flat was spotlessly clean and very warm and comfortable. The dedicated off street parking space was a bonus in a town where parking is at a premium.

The owners, Alan and Heather were exceptionally friendly and helpful right from our arrival which got us off to a good start. Hide

Lovely flat, clean and comfortable with outside terrace overlooking rooftops and fells. Excellent location, in middle of Keswick but very quiet. Also parking space for medium car, which is always a bonus. Owners live opposite and couldn't be nicer and left couple of unexpected gifts! We will definitely return.

Wainwrights Loft is a perfect place to stay in Keswick. It is a short walk to the Main street and not far to Derwentwater itself. It has all the comforts of home and everything you need in the kitchen. The hosts are friendly, helpful and welcoming and are nearby to deal with any problems. We had a great time there and would recommend it thoroughly.Read more Hide
