Crisp and contemporary interiors are kept bright by the abundant windows throughout this spacious three-bedroom cottage with an open-plan layout and a cosy snug. Located near Keswick, you’ll be close to mountain peaks, nature reserves, lakes and plenty of amenities during your getaway.

Walk through the hall into the stylish, open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner with dark flooring and furnishings but light walls and wooden accents throughout. Next to the glass patio doors is a comfortable lounge area boasting plump sofas and a Smart TV. Continue past the wooden dining table with bench seating into the sleek kitchen area with wide windows, green cabinets and granite surface tops. Here, you’ll also find a breakfast bar on the kitchen peninsula. Also on the ground floor is a utility room, a family bathroom, and three bedrooms with en-suites – a double and two twin rooms. Upstairs is the main lounge, which benefits from picture windows framing the views of Blencathra Mountain. This neutral-toned room has a wood burner and doors which lead to the balcony. Outside is a decked area, a lawn and furniture.

While staying in the small village of Threlkeld, you could follow the railway path hiking trail to the lakeside town of Keswick (4 miles) where you can visit the cafes, restaurants, museums and theatre. Explore Derwentwater (5 miles) on foot or on the water by hiring a canoe or paddleboard. Head south of the lake to find Lodore Falls (8 miles) and don’t miss the cliff-top vistas from Surprise View (8 miles).
