A traditional stone house, this former post office in the pretty Lakeland village of Rosthwaite, is an ideal base for a family or friends to explore the glorious Lake District. Sleeping four guests, this characterful property is set in the Borrowdale Valley, with lovely views of the surrounding fells. The village is less than 4 miles from beautiful Derwentwater and has a year-round bus service to Keswick (6.5 miles). It also boasts a restaurant, tearoom and farm shop.
The front door of this ground-floor apartment opens to a cosy lounge with stylish sofas, a wood burner set in a brick hearth and a window seat where you can enjoy a view of trees and fells. A door leads to the simple white and wood kitchen/diner. There are two bedrooms: a double, reached from the kitchen and a super-king-size, accessed from the hall. Wooden floors, pine cottage doors and a traditional tiled floor in the hall enhance the charming interior. You can park your bikes in cycle storage racks inside the enclosed, shared courtyard.
Rosthwaite is the starting point of many wonderful walks and cycle routes, with the fells on your doorstep. Take the packhorse trail to the picture-postcard hamlet of Watendlath and have a reviving drink at the National Trust tearoom. You can explore more lovely walks on a circular boat tour of Derwentwater. It stops at eight jetties, where you can hop on or off to visit must-see landmarks such as the Lodore Falls, picnic on small, secluded beaches or enjoy a wild swim. Keswick is a lively market town where you can see a show at Theatre by the Lake, play crazy golf in Hope Park or visit the famous Pencil Museum.
