Renovated to an excellent standard with stylish interiors and quirky artwork throughout, this large and luxurious abode is the perfect choice for any family or group getaway to the Lake District, whether it be celebrating a special occasion or just looking for some quality time with loved ones and your four-legged friends. Step inside this magnificent dwelling and admire the extravagant chandelier that and high-vaulted ceilings that decorate the halls, before continuing through to the snug living room for a quick catch up with friends. At the heart of the home is a beautifully appointed living/dining room, home to three plush velvet sofas, a traditional woodburning stove and a charming wood dining table, where you can spend your evenings socialising with friends as you begin to map out all of your upcoming adventures. Escape the excitement as you sneak off to the sun room with a new and exciting book or continue through to the chic kitchen/dining room complete with a wide range of appliances and a fantastic wine fridge, together creating an ideal space for cooking up a fabulous feast for all to enjoy at the dining table. Rest and recuperate in the impressive cinema room with a sleek flat-screen TV and surround sound system, or take the staircase down to the lower ground floor and discover a games room boasting two pool tables, as well as a well-designed utility room and a shower room. Back on the ground floor guests with limited mobility will be pleased with the accessible king-size bedroom benefitting from a wet room en-suite, whilst the first floor plays host to a further seven bedrooms comprised of five king-size and two twins, each featuring their very own en-suite. Outside, a wrap-around patio with an abundance of outdoor seating and a splendid hot tub offer a wonderful space to relax and unwind on a warm summers evening, as you delight in a refreshing glass of lemonade and taken in the spectacular scenery that surrounds the property. Tear yourself away from this arresting home and venture to the centre of Keswick for a day touring all of the best local attractions such as the captivating exhibition of Puzzling Place, the Keswick Museum and the ancient English Heritage Site of Castlerigg Stone Circle. Complemented by a sea of charming cafés, well-established pubs and restaurants, and even its own brewery, Keswick provides all the essentials for a fun evening out on the town. If it’s an entertaining evening indoors that you seek, be sure to stop by the local supermarket for some fresh and tasty ingredients, or grab a takeaway from one of the many in the area. Cross the water over to the National Trust owned Derwent Island House, or visit the neighbouring village of Threlkeld for an enthralling tour of the Threlkeld Quarry & Mining Museum. Seek thrills with the Keswick Adventure centre with days spent abseiling or paddleboarding out on the Derwent Water, or why not head into the wonderful woodlands of Whinlatter Forrest Park for an afternoon of swinging through the treetops at Go Ape Whinlatter? Just a stone’s throw away, attractions such as the Mirehouse & Gardens and the Lake District Wildlife Park make for superb days out, whilst over in Grasmere and Bowness-on-Windermere, there’s much fun to be had at Wordsworth Grasmere, The World of Beatrix Potter Attraction, and the National Trust owned Wray Castle resting just across the lake. No trip to the Lake District is complete without a day of walking through the luscious mountains with hikes to the peaks of Helvellyn and Skiddaw, or a gentler stroll along the breath-taking White Moss Walks. With so much to offer, it’s no surprise that Derwent Waterhouse Is the ultimate choice for your next adventure to the Lake District.
