Take in the iconic views from Ashness Bridge, one of the most photographed spots in the Lakes, or enjoy a tour and tasting at The Lakes Distillery. History enthusiasts will enjoy a visit to Threlkeld Quarry & Mining Museum, which offers a fascinating look into the area’s industrial past.

For those seeking adventure, Go Ape Whinlatter provides a thrilling treetop experience with stunning views of the surrounding forest.

Great location.

Accommodation well equipped, clean and comfortable. But as in previous reviews the shower in the main bathroom was luke warm . Plus timings on the heating we couldn't adjust for some reason. Would use this property again but please sort the shower and heating out.

Very homely and clean.

Well equipped, there is everything you need. There is just a small complaint, the shower in the main bathroom is luke warm, I stayed here in the summer and it was the same then. This didn't put me off as this was my second stay and the comfy beds more than make up for the shower. It's in a great location for exploring the Lakes.

Great home for our short walking break.

3 twin rooms was ideal for our group. Generally very clean a d tidy. 10 min walk to Keswick town centre was perfect for evenings out. Plenty of crockery and glasses, some needed rewashing before use, but otherwise all good. Private parking was ideal for our one car, but street parking is very congested around the narrow streets. Overall excellent.
