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.

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

Another great stay
This apartment fulfils all our expectations and needs, in terms of locality, facilities and cleanliness and has done for very many years. It is within walking distance of shops, bars and restaurants, public transport and the shore of Derwentwater. There are wonderful views of the mountains from the apartment but be prepared to climb 3 flights of stairs. The owners have recently updated the kitchen, bathroom and living room to a very high standard. Any issues are always promptly and efficiently dealt with by Keswick Cottages staff.

Thank you for your fabulous 5* review! We are thrilled that you enjoyed your stay at Mountain View, the owners have done a great job with the recent renovations and we're really glad that you give it the thumbs up :-) We look forward to hosting you for your next stay! 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.

Great location in the middle of Keswick and really nice flat. Everything was really modern and there was plenty of space for 4 people.
