About this property

Braithwaite 1.5 miles. Hidden deep within the luscious green Cumbrian Countryside, in the quintessential village of Thornthwaite, you will find the picture-perfect cottage of Woodside. Ideally situated within the outstanding Lake District National Park, this delightful abode offers the perfect setting for a couple or a family of four seeking an action-packed adventure in the great outdoors. After an exhilarating morning stroll along the clear waters of Braithwaite Lake, return to the warmth of this cottage, leaving your mud-splattered wellies to dry out in the porch. Spend your evenings relaxing in front of the flat-screen TV, as you snuggle close to your loved ones and keep nice and toasty from the heat of the attractive woodburning stove. Prepare a mouth-watering meal in the classic well equipped farmhouse kitchen, where you can show off your culinary skills. Serve up at the dining table and delight in a delicious family feast, as you crack open a bottle of fizz and toast to spending quality time with your loved ones on a memorable holiday to Cumbria. Retreat to the lovely double bedroom styled with calming blue hues, and admire the striking black feature fireplace as you unpack your belongings into the traditional chest of drawers, allowing yourself to feel right at home. On the ground-floor discover a pretty twin bedroom, housing two charming oak beds and boasting views of the mountains, together making this the perfect space to retire to at the end of an action-packed day. Guests can choose to start their day with a refreshing rinse under the shower or instead opt for a more relaxing soak in the tub, both located in the airy ground-floor bathroom. Kick-start your exciting expedition with a day at the thrilling adventure centre of Go Ape Whinlatter, where you can swing from treetops or explore the breath-taking forest on a fun-filled segway tour. Visit the grand family estate of Mirehouse & Gardens, or head into the town of Keswick for a scenic picnic in the well-kept landscapes of Hope Park. Wander the galleries of Keswick Museum as you soak up the local history, before heading off to the enchanting ruins of the magnificent Castlerigg Stone Circle. Hop on your bikes and head out for a cycle through Whinlatter Forest Park or challenge yourself to a hike up Skiddaw, well-worth your efforts for the beautiful vistas once you reach the peak. Live unforgettable moments with your nearest and dearest on a holiday to Woodside.

Surrounded by the luscious green setting of the Lake District National Park, the quintessential village of Braithwaite can be found resting on the outskirts of Keswick.

  • Deborah

    The outside area needs attention, and the bathroom needs updating. It lets the cottage down. The cottage was very dusty, full of hairs and cobwebs everywhere, especially hanging down from the radiators. The door handle areas were dirty and needed cleaning as were the mirrors. Also, a recycle bin for glass is needed. Other holiday cottages in the area had them. Parking space was good. The kitchen was well equipped, and the double bed was comfortable. The views were lovely.

  • Tom

    Great views of the fells opposite, which were snowcapped during our stay. Drying room a helpful addition. A few basic food essentials such as salt and teabags would have been very helpful

  • William

    Furnished to a good standard. Enjoyed a long weekend walking and biking straight from the door. We would book again without hesitation.
