There is good access to plenty of routes nearby as well as more challenging fells including Skiddaw, Catbells, Latrigg and Blencathra to name a few. Just a mile away is The Lake District Wildlife Park with over 100 species of wild animals. You can take an alpaca for a walk at Alpacaly Ever After or take a trip to The Lakes Distillery, offering tasting tours.
The cottage is just 8 miles from the popular town of Keswick on the shores of Derwentwater, with an abundance of dining and shopping experiences.
