Darwin Cottage is a traditional Lakeland cottage on a quiet street right in the heart of Keswick, Cumbria. With exposed beams and a wood burner it feels like a proper Lakeland home not a generic holiday let. Shops, cafes, pubs and an old-school cinema are all within 100 metres of the front door. Note: this property does not have a hot tub.

Keswick is one of the Lake District's best bases for walking and cycling. Derwentwater is under a mile away for lakeside strolls. Friar's Crag viewpoint is just 0.5 miles. The stone circle at Castlerigg is 1.5 miles away with sweeping fell views.

The cottage sleeps up to 4 guests across two floors. Upstairs there's one double bedroom and one twin bedroom sharing a contemporary bathroom with shower over the bath. Downstairs a bright spacious kitchen-diner seats four with full appliances including dishwasher and washing machine.

Latrigg Fell is 1.5 miles away. Blencathra is 7 miles. A shared rear garden has a bistro table and chairs. A parking permit for local car parks is provided.

Darwin Cottage suits couples, small families or friends. Town centre location with genuine Lakeland character makes this a practical and comfortable base for exploring the fells.
