Accommodation Details

Single-storey. One double bedroom with Jack-and-Jill access to bathroom. Bathroom with bath, shower over, basin and WC. Open-plan living space with kitchen, dining area and sitting area with electric fire

This charming pine lodge rests peacefully within Burnside Park on the leafy fringes of Keswick in the beautiful Lake District. With panoramic views of the Lakeland fells and positioned just a stone's throw away from the town centre, Squirrels Leap makes the perfect spot for a holiday with your better half. Enjoy the luxuries of this lodge from the moment you step inside, turn on the electric fire in the living room and drink in those countryside views from your patio windows as you rest on one of the sofas. You may have travelled far and wide to visit this delightful part of the UK, so a glass of wine and time to relax might be just what you need when you arrive. You can rustle up a lovely meal in the kitchen, which has an electric oven and hob as well as a slimline dishwasher, so you don't have to worry about the washing up afterwards - what a delight! Catch your rest in the double bedroom once you've had a warm bath to soak your muscles or wake up to a refreshing shower in the morning instead, the Jack-and Jill bathroom has both. If you love the great outdoors, you will be thrilled to find that the grounds of the lodge are at the foot of Skiddaw and Latrigg fells, and you can even enjoy nature right from your patio where there is a seating area for you to relish a balmy summer's evening. Keswick has plenty of amenities close by including shops, pubs, its famous Theatre by the Lake and a cinema for those rainier days. The charming Derwentwater lies to the south of the town and can be accessed via well-maintained footpaths. There are many easy ‘miles without stiles’ walking routes you can take in the area, as well as many challenging hikes over high peaks. For those who enjoy skiing, the Lake District Ski Club is just over 6 miles away situated near the top of one of England’s highest mountains and has up to nine runs, the longest being almost a mile. The wider area includes Scafell Pike, Grizedale and Windermere, each well worth a visit for something different and those who enjoy the coast can take a trip over to Whitehaven and St. Bees Head Heritage Coast. Squirrels Leap provides a lovely break for you and your loved one.

Keswick has plenty to offer those visiting the Lake District at any time of year, with a number of shops and restaurants to suit all tastes. There is also miniature golf, the famous Theatre by the Lake and great mountain and biking opportunities. Derwentwater is positioned at the head of Borrowdale Valley and is only a few minutes walk from the town centre.

Reviews

Hand on Heart this property was so clean and well presented, and was furnished extremely generously. It stated dog friendly and we actually felt guilty bringing the dogs inside !! The views are fantastic and although you feel away from any hustle and bustle looking out on the adjacent farmland and classic Cumbria hills, only a short walk down the road we found a warm cosy pub and a few friendly faces, We look forward to coming back.

Were can I start, the cabin is perfectly situated within walking distance of Keswick town centre and the nearest pub just across the road. The views are fabulous with Latrigg in the distance. The cabin itself was impeccable, clean, warm and comfortable with everything you could need, including a bottle of Prosecco waiting when we arrived. Highly recommended and we will definitely be coming back.
