Brook House 2

Brook House 2 is one half of an old farmhouse right in Bassenthwaite village. A stream runs past it with ducks.

It sleeps five. Two bedrooms, two bathrooms. It's got a 4 Star rating. The living room is big, with three sofas and a woodburning stove. The garden is paved and enclosed, with a gate.

The village is very quiet. There's a pub about 200 yards away that does food. Kids play on the green and there are swings in a little wood.

For walks, you can go straight from the door. It's about two miles down the lanes to Bassenthwaite Lake. For bigger walks, Skiddaw is right there. All the main lakes are within about 40 minutes' drive, but it feels a bit more out of the way here.

Keswick and Cockermouth are both about a 15 minute drive. Keswick has Derwentwater and all the shops. Cockermouth is good for proper shops and places to eat, it's less busy with visitors.

Loads to do within a short drive. Mirehouse and Dodd Wood are less than 10 minutes away. The Lakes Distillery and the Wildlife Park are about 10 minutes the other way, towards Cockermouth.

Facilities: there's a washing machine, dishwasher, WiFi, and parking. Bedding and towels are included. We can provide a cot and highchair. One well-behaved dog is welcome.
