A traditional large Victorian Lakeland slate terraced house walking distance from Keswick town centre and all the pubs, bars and restaurants. Situated in the residential area, just a few minutes' walk from the centre of Keswick, Number Twenty is tastefully refurbished with ample parking for four cars, five en-suite bedrooms, two log burning stoves and a large patio. It offers comfortable and classic accommodation for a large family or friends getting together for a catch up. You’ll arrive into the small front garden and then into a large Victorian Hallway complete with original tiled floor, period features, coat hooks and boot rack. The two reception rooms now form one large dual aspect open plan lounge but can still be divided in order to make two smaller lounges each with its own TV and log burning stove. Perhaps separate adults and kids spaces ?! Please note we cannot accept bookings for Hen or Stag parties.
The popular town of Keswick is the holiday centre of the North of the Lake District and has plenty to offer the visitor at any time of year. The town boasts numerous shops and restaurants to suit all tastes, as well as offering miniature golf, excellent parks, the famous Theatre by the Lake, a charming cinema, the Pencil Museum, a climbing wall, fishing and great mountain biking opportunities, whilst the beautiful lake of Derwentwater at the head of the stunning Borrowdale Valley is only a few minutes walk from the town centre. Nearby, between Braithwaite and Buttermere is the beautiful Newlands Valley, while picturesque Bassenthwaite Lake is well worth a visit. From a gentle countryside ramble to a challenging hike up Skiddaw or the famous Catbells, there really is something for everyone. Visit Castlerigg Stone Circle, the Jennings Brewery and Mirehouse, a grand house and gardens on the shores of the Bassenthwaite Lake, or take a fabulous boat trip around Derwentwater. With plenty of attractions for the kids, lovely parks and the nearby Lake District Wildlife Park this is a great Lakeland destination whatever the time of year.

Off road parking- a bonus. Secure garden - perfect for our dog. Extra beds gave flexibility for younger members of the family to decide to share parents room part way through the week! Lots of stairs to keep you fit! Take care when opening the doors to both twin rooms as easy to trap your finger between the knob & the casing.
Deborah
Kitchen fully equipped for our needs. Close to town. The parking spaces are a real plus. We will book again. Only issue was slow internet.
Georgina
An en-suite for each bedroom and the parking spaces were a real bonus. The beds were comfy and the kitchen well-equipped. The house itself is in a great location. We would book again.
