Breathtaking Views, amazing cottage / appartment - and absolute gem - highly recommended
INCREDIBLE - that's the best word I can describe this gorgeous, perfect cottage. Located in the former Swan Coaching Inn. It's immaculate inside. First off, the views, from every aspect of this gorgeous place - front and back, the views are breathtaking. you walk up the little stairs to your own private front door, and into a little cloak -where you can leave boots/coats, and then up 3 or 4 stairs and into the lounge. A true "welcome home" feeling. There are 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms (ensuite and the other bathroom a single step from the bedroom), a great brand new kitchen, with everything you need, from Dishwasher, washer, dryer, microwave, full-size separate fridge & freezer, and every utensil and cooking equipment you need - plus a gorgeous window seat. A door then leads to an outside enclosed/safe terrace, where you can drink your coffee and be gobsmacked by those views again. The WIFI is BT and very fast (stream films on TV etc), and there's a smart TV for those rainy later afternoons/evenings after a walk, where you can curl up on the sofa. There's even a little dining table for 4 - and whilst there is no Chimmney (given it's a converted pub) the owners have created a little heater, that has a flame effect, so it feels like a little fire - very cute and warming and it does the job really well. The owners of this place have thought of everything, designed the place with real care, and left it spacious and snug all at the same time.
We had 3 nights booked but extended to 4 as we didn't want to go home.
Short walk across the field, through the woods, and under the underpass of A66 - all fenced off and safe for the dogs, and about 8 min lovely walk from the cottage to the lake edge, then you can walk fully along the edge for as long as you want.
I can't rate it enough.
It's a short car journey to Keswick, but worth the short ride, to be welcomed back by those views.
Found a taxi company "Denise's" who would pick up and drop off with the Dog too - so every base is covered, if you wanted to get into Keswick and both have a few glasses of beer/wine, and not drive. £12.50 each way. Each of the drivers were lovely with the dog too.
Keswick Cottages was the booking agent, and they were super helpful too.
Best stay away we've had in ages.
Highly recommended.
