Squirrel’s Retreat - UK30821
This one bedroom apartment offers beautiful views and is just a short drive from bustling Keswick - the perfect Lakeland retreat.. 3 steps to entrance.
All on the Ground Floor:
Living/dining room: 42" Smart TV
Kitchen: (4 Steps), Electric Oven, Electric Hob, Microwave, Fridge, Freezer, Dishwasher
Bedroom: Double (4ft 6in) Bed
Shower Room: Walk-In Shower, Heated Towel Rail, Toilet. Electric central heating, electricity, bed linen, towels and Wi-Fi included. Welcome pack.. Garden with patio and garden furniture. Bike store. Private parking for 1 car. No smoking. Please note: No children.. Squirrel’s Retreat is a lovely, open-plan apartment set at the rear of the owner’s large detached property. With its own private entrance, it is ideal for couples looking for a relaxing and peaceful holiday, or those that enjoy walks, bike rides and some of Lakeland’s finest scenery.
The living space is open plan with the dining area, and large picture windows flood the room with natural light. Overlooking the woodland and the owner’s garden area, there are glimpsing lake and fell views, and an abundance of visiting wildlife to look out for, including the osprey each spring, woodpeckers and red squirrels, just to name a few. A modern kitchen is just off from the living area, and has everything you need to make a hearty breakfast to start the day with. A comfortable bedroom, again with beautiful views from the window, will inspire you each day as you awake from a restful nights sleep. Outside, a small patio has a seating area overlooking the woodland and garden area, ideal to sit and enjoy the sounds of nature as you enjoy your morning cup of coffee.
Set in magnificent grounds of the owners property, it is just yards away from paths leading up to Whinlatter Forest, famous for its walking and mountain bike trails. To the front, is a quite lane leading down to the shores of Bassenthwaite Lake, and for the more adventurous, Skiddaw is a favourite of many walkers looking for the higher summit views. The nearby market town of Keswick is popular with visitors looking for cafés, bars and eateries, and speciality shops of every kind can be found too. Stay dry on rainy days as you catch a play at The Theatre By The Lake, or the latest film at the Alhambra Cinema. Shop 4 miles, pub and restaurant 3 miles.
Squirrel’s Retreat can be booked with The Coach House (ref UK30813) to accommodate up to 5 guests.
