Overview

Mountain View is a fabulous penthouse apartment in the centre of Keswick commanding views of Skiddaw to one side and Borrowdale to the other. It is a fantastic two-bedroom apartment that offers the ideal place to relax with family and friends, situated within easy walking distance of Keswick Market Square and Derwentwater lakeshore. The apartment is spread over the top floor on one level, where guests are comfortably accommodated in the two tastefully styled bedrooms, sharing one family bathroom. Hosting open plan living, the well equipped kitchen is situated next to the large living area, with additional dining space. Essentials, such as cookwear and appliances, are paired with indulgent extras, such as a new espresso machine and a selection of espresso pods. The apartment is well stocked to make your Lake District stay a pleasure. Mountain View is the penthouse apartment in a small quiet block, and being on the top floor, may mean a healthy trot up three flights of stairs, but it certainly has the best views!

Description

Mountain View is a fantastic two bedroom apartment that offers the ideal place to relax with family and friends, situated within easy walking distance of Keswick Market Square and Derwentwater lakeshore. The apartment is located in Heads Road Court, a little hidden courtyard super close to the lake, but in the town centre.

The free, allocated parking certainly helps breathe a sigh of relief when you arrive. Mountain View is the top floor apartment in the small, quiet, block, which is half residential, half holiday accommodation.

Being the penthouse apartment may mean a healthy trot up three flights of stairs, but it certainly has the best views! You can’t beat the views of Skiddaw to one side and towards the lake and Borrowdale on the other. Don’t fear if you have outdoor equipment, or a big buggy, we have secure storage in the courtyard, where you can keep your things safe during your stay.

The apartment has a beautifully styled king-size bedroom, and second bedroom with a double bed plus one single bed making the property very versatile for different groups. The family bathroom, with shower over the bath, includes luxury bathroom toiletries.

Hosting open plan living, the kitchen has a fridge, freezer, double oven, five burner gas hob, dishwasher and microwave. In the large lounge area, there is a dining table for four, and a leather corner sofa with TV and DVD. There is gas central heating for the chillier months and a feature electric fire in the lounge area. We offer free, secure WiFi throughout the apartment.

The shores of Derwentwater, the famous Keswick boat landings and Friars Cragg are only a five minute walk from the apartment.

The location of the property is amazing and we hope that you got to enjoy the fabulous bars and restaurants on your doorstep :-) We hope to host you again soon for another stay!

Amazing Location and Views
Where do you start with an apartment that provides just perfect views ?!? Stayed here post Christmas for New Year. The apartment was presented to a very high standard. The beds were very comfortable, bath and shower amazing. Kitchen was stocked with every possible gadget, dinning area nice a cozy and sofa very comfortable Once you regain your breath from bringing everything up 3 flights of stairs (which we were very much aware of) your piece of haven in Keswick awaits. Views from every window are breath taking and I enjoyed my morning caffeine fix just wandering from window to window gazing out at the mountains and church spires. Centrally located so all shops , restaurants and bars are walkable. The team at Keswick Cottages are available for questions and queries. The addition of a tablet providing local information and suggested activities was very much welcomed Highly recommend for a fantastic stay in Keswick

Thank you for your excellent 5* review! We are delighted that you enjoyed your stay at Mountain View, we're really happy to hear that you had everything you needed and that you enjoyed those incredible views. We really don't think there is a better way to start the day than with a good cup of coffee looking at the mountains - perfection! We're glad that you would recommend the property to others, it's the ultimate spot for those wanting an escape to the Lakes whilst still enjoying the convenience of a central location. It's always our pleasure to help out during stays if needed and we appreciate the shout out, thank you. Hopefully you'll come back to visit for another holiday soon! Best wishes, Keswick Cottages

Great location, comfortable and well finished apartment with nice views
A very enjoyable stay with a friend. We found the apartment well located to go into town or to Derwent Water, with nice views (when standing). It had recently been refurbished and there was everything we needed. All equipment was of a high quality and easy to operate. Occasionally we had to boost the heating but it was easy to do so and warmer quickly. The beds were comfortable and it was good to have USB A sockets near the beds, very thoughtful. The only downside was some noise from the road and bin area early on as it does tend to echo. We had one issue where there was a heating error which was quickly and easily resolved within the hour. Thanks for a lovely stay.

Thank you for your terrific 5* review! We are delighted that you enjoyed your time at Mountain View, it's great to hear that it was nice and comfortable and that you had everything you needed for your stay. We were happy to help with the heating! We're lucky that we are based in Central Keswick so can easily pop out when needed. We're sorry about the disruption in the morning and hope that the super convenient location in the centre of town made up for this. We'd love to host you again for a future stay, have a lovely Christmas and New Year in the meantime. Best wishes, Keswick Cottages

Great location right in central Keswick with access to lake, shops, restaurants etc all on doorstep. The furnishings and fittings were of a high quality and well laid out. I loved the luxury feel of the bedsheets and the huge soft towels. The Nespresso style coffee machine was great. Some capsules provided but not enough for us coffee lovers. The mountain view from the windows was great. I would definitely book again.
