High Corner

About this property

Nestled in the heart of the vibrant market town of Keswick is this delightful retreat, High Corner. The cottage takes its name from the raised front garden patio, overlooking the hustle and bustle of everyday life in the centre of this historic Lake District town. Step inside this charming home into the hallway where you are welcomed by an array of ‘times gone by’ framed Lakeland photographs lining the staircase. The modern stylish furnishings compliment the character of the property, with wood and slate floors throughout the ground floor. The spacious living/dining room has an abundance of natural light from the large front window and offers a cosy setup with a plush settee and wall-mounted Smart TV so you can catch up on your favourite shows in the evening.

Step into the fitted kitchen, equipped with a range of integrated appliances, ensuring that the chef amongst the group can prepare delicious evening meals and hearty breakfasts to kick start your action-packed days. Head upstairs and discover two bedrooms both decorated to a high standard in a contemporary boutique style – choose from the king-size or twin bedroom to catch your rest, while there is also a family shower room with large walk-in shower cubicle. All the facilities of Keswick are at your fingertips, including a selection of pubs and eateries, as well as a range of shops, a pitch and putt golf course, the Theatre by the Lake and the Pencil Museum to be enjoyed during your stay.

Head to Derwentwater where you can enjoy a cruise on the Lake or hire your own boat and take in the dramatic mountainous views. Whinlatter Forest Park is an easy drive away and offers activities for all age groups which include Go Ape Tree Top Adventure, mountain biking and the Gruffalo Trail, or for a more challenging adventure, hop off to explore the heights of Maiden Moor and Grisedale Pike.
