Location: Bassenthwaite

Keswick 8 miles; Cockermouth 9 miles.

An attractive village in the Northern Lakes, Bassenthwaite lies just a short distance to the north east of Bassenthwaite Lake, and retains its traditional rural feel, with a stream flowing gently on the outskirts, whitewashed Lakeland cottages, a pleasant vllage green and a real ale inn full of character! Bassenthwaite Lake itself, while boasting gentler scenery than others in the region, is still one of the most picturesque places in England. Places of interest nearby include Mirehouse, a grand house and gardens on the shores of the Lake with small open-air theatre (reputedly frequented by poets such as Tennyson and Wordsworth), Trotters Farm, and Dodd Wood. Most of the attractions of the Lake District are within easy reach and the quieter Northern Fells are almost on the doorstep. The nearby towns of Cockermouth and Keswick, both have weekly markets and offer a good range of amenities. The scenery of the Yorkshire Dales is within touring distance, as is the city of Carlisle and Hadrians Wall country.

The property was in a beautiful location and we could do so much without having to drive either at all or very far. Perfect to take our dog.
Mrs Armstrong, Beaworthy, October 2012

Very scenic and peaceful. Felt safe. Gorgeous welcome starter pack as we arrived which included, fresh eggs, milk, tea coffee sugar, a tea loaf, very kind and homely touches!
Miss Pacey, Leicester, August 2012

Lovely little place, very well fitted out, small but cosy. Really liked the well-cared for, village-like, friendly atmosphere of the farm, situated in such a beautiful area. Generous welcome pack of eggs, cake and milk much appreciated.
