    “We had a great week at Nook Cottage.”

    It’s in a beautiful location with great walking from the doorstep, and a short drive to Keswick for supplies. For an autumn trip, the Cottage was very warm and cosy, and we enjoyed a real fire each evening. The kitchen is a good size and well equipped. We would definitely come back for another week

With an electric oven, halogen hob and microwave, this contemporary space is sure to please the chef of the family!

After challenging hikes or gentle strolls around the shores of Derwentwater, load up the washing machine with your walking gear and climb the stairs to find the family bathroom to freshen up.

With a split-level landing, climb a few more steps up to the bedrooms, each with gorgeous mountain views, bedside lamps, and plenty of storage space; choose between the master double, a twin, and single with truckle bed.
