About this property

Blencathra - a bungalow that sleeps 4 guests in 2 bedrooms

A superb semi-detached bungalow with wonderful views on an attractive site within a pleasant residential area on the edge of Keswick, between Fitz Park and the lower slopes of Latrigg. ‘Blencathra' is about a 10 minute easy stroll to Keswick's Market Square. The property has been tastefully decorated to provide fresh and immaculately clean accommodation for up to four guests.

‘Blencathra' has ample parking, full double glazing and gas central heating. All radiators can be individually thermostatically controlled. The bungalow is situated at the top of a small, quiet cul-de-sac. It has a westerly aspect and the fells from Coledale, across Whinlatter Forest to Barf and Skiddaw make a spectacular panorama to the front. At the rear of the property there is a spacious garden providing a peaceful, leafy green area in which to relax and enjoy views of Skiddaw and Latrigg. Red squirrels are charming, frequent visitors. Patio furniture is provided for the summer months so guests can make the most of the tranquillity.

To the left of the front door is the comfortable lounge with outstanding westerly views. Furnished with a quality leather suite, television, DVD and living flame gas fire it is warm and cosy at any time of the year.

The superb double glazed conservatory at the rear of the bungalow provides a quiet and peaceful additional space in which to relax.

The kitchen/diner has very well equipped quality wooden units, an electric oven with a gas hob, extractor fan, washer/dryer, CD/radio and a larder fridge. The freezer is located in the garage which is also a useful area for drying wet clothes - and sorting out walking boots!

There are two good sized bedrooms, one with double bed and the other with two single beds, both having quality mattresses and furniture plus beds dressed in luxury linen and towels. Please note that this property is not suitable for children under the age of 12 years old.

Blencathra Again
Wonderful as ever….. with good weather and still entertaining rabbits in the garden !! Central enough for town but such a quiet cul de sac.

Five Star accommodation!
Spotless, comfortable, really well maintained bungalow, in a quiet location. With parking as a bonus & the garden is as well maintained the inside.

Great location
Blencathra is in the perfect location. Within easy walking distance from Keswick yet very quiet and with great views of the mountains. The bungalow was very clean, warm and comfortable with excellent facilities. The conservatory is a real bonus even in Winter. The only slight criticism I would have is that one or two hooks would have been useful and better labelling of the keys, but that’s very minor and would definitely not prevent us from booking again.

A lovely property
A clean and welcoming house in a quiet cul-de-sac. It has a particularly nice conservatory with fell-top views, and a decent sized garden, but as we stayed here in the winter we (sadly) weren't able to make use of this. It's slightly further out from the town centre than properties we've stayed at before (about a 7-10 minute walk), but this has some advantages, too. We'll definitely look to book this property again the next time we stay in Keswick.

Another great stay
This is our second stay here and we’re again very happy. Only issue was when the kettle broke but it was replaced within an hour of reporting it. Definitely using Keswick Cottages again. (Less rain next time please)
