    “How End is a fantastic property in a wonderful location!”

    The house was clean and spacious, plenty of room for 6 adults and a 5-month old. Having a bathroom per couple and still 2 spare was a real benefit and a rare find! The views from the secluded garden and from the huge window in the upstairs lounge area are simply stunning. With Whinlatter Forest literally on the doorstep, so many different walking routes from the house, and 3 pubs in the village, you could easily not use the car all week! We had a wonderful time, were lucky with the weather, and ...

We had a wonderful time, were lucky with the weather, and would definitely recommend this property for anyone looking to explore this area of The Lakes

About the location

BRAITHWAITE

Keswick 3 miles.

Between the magnificent northern lakes of Derwentwater and Bassenthwaite, lies the village of Braithwaite. Still retaining much of its traditional appeal, the Coledale Beck runs through the village with whitewashed Lakeland cottages, two village shops and two real ale Inns each brimming with character! Between Braithwaite and Buttermere is the beautiful Newlands Valley, while picturesque Bassenthwaite Lake is well worth a visit. From a gentle countryside ramble to a challenging hike up Skiddaw, there really is something for everyone. Visit Mirehouse, a grand house and gardens on the shores of the lake with an open-air theatre, or take a trip around the lake. Lake District Wildlife Park, Dodd Wood, Derwentwater, and Keswick with its wide range of attractions, are also within easy reach.
