This large Victorian holiday house has 7 en suite bedrooms, 2 sitting rooms and a private hot tub in the rear garden. The location puts you within walking distance of Keswick's shops, pubs and restaurants, with Fitz Park directly opposite for dog walking. The house works particularly well for multi-generational families as most bedrooms have their own en suite shower room, meaning grandparents and children can have privacy and comfort. The two separate sitting rooms give different age groups space to relax - one for adults wanting quiet conversation, another for teenagers watching TV or families with young children. The large dining room has a proper table that seats everyone together for meals, whether you're cooking in the well-equipped kitchen or getting takeaways from town. Your base at The Paddock puts Derwentwater just a 10-minute walk away; from there you can hire boats, take the launch around the lake, or start walks up Catbells. The Theatre by the Lake offers evening entertainment, while the Cumberland Pencil Museum keeps families busy on rainy days. Keswick's market runs twice weekly in the square, and there are plenty of outdoor shops for walking gear. The hot tub sits in the enclosed rear garden, which is private and secure for children and dogs. After a day walking the fells around Borrowdale, or climbing Helvellyn, groups appreciate having somewhere to unwind together. The house has parking for 3 cars with more space available on nearby streets, making it practical for larger groups arriving by car. Groups celebrating anniversaries, family reunions or milestone birthdays find the combination of central location, en suite bedrooms and hot tub works well. Walking groups like being able to reach Buttermere, the Honister Pass and Borrowdale by car in under 30 minutes, while still having all of Keswick's amenities on the doorstep. ## Facilities - **Dog Friendly:** Two well-behaved pets welcome within rental price, additional pets on request only at extra charge of £35 per dog per stay. - **Accessibility:** 2 ground floor bedrooms (1 with en suite shower room) suitable for those less mobile, but no specific facilities. - **Hot Tub:** Private 6-seater hot tub in secure enclosed rear garden, perfect for evening relaxation.
