Description

This charming, mid-terrace Georgian property sits in a desirable location in Keswick market square.

With a host of amenities within a short walk, Fran’s Nest is a great base for families and friends looking to stay close to the action of Keswick, while being within easy reach of Bassenthwaite, Ullswater and Ambleside further afield.After a day of exploring, look forward to catching up on your favourite TV shows in the sitting room, complete with two plush sofas and an electric fire, so you are well-equipped for cosy nights in.

Allow the house chef to impress in the contemporary kitchen, housing a range of integrated appliances including an electric oven, induction hob, microwave, fridge/freezer and even a dishwasher, so there’s no need to lift a finger when it comes to washing up!

For your convenience, there’s also a utility room with washer/dryer, so you won’t have to pack your whole wardrobe!

Serve up a tasty supper in the dining room, complimented with a bottle of fizz as you toast to a long-awaited getaway with your nearest and dearest!

As you look to rest, whisk off upstairs and dream away in either of the three bedrooms; on the first floor there is a twin along with a charming double with en-suite facilities.

Continue to the second floor to discover another king-size with imposing views over Keswick to the northwestern fells including Catbells and Robinson.

To the outside is a small courtyard where you can relax with a favourite drink and reflect on the holiday thus far.

Keswick's fantastic amenities and attractions are a stone's throw away from The Old Mill, from restaurants and bars to quaint tearooms and antique shops.

On those rainy days, choose between the Pencil Museum, Keswick Museum and The Puzzling Place, whilst Hope Park and Theatre By The Lake are perfect settings for summer evenings.

Remember to pack your walking shoes as you look to tackle mountains like Skiddaw and Blencathra for rewarding views at the top!

Along Derwentwater, there are many options for hiking, watersports, and sailing, and the picturesque Bassenthwaite Lake National Nature Reserve is close by, while Ullswater is home to the Aira Force Waterfall and boat tours to lakeside communities like Pooley Bridge and Glenridding.

For a delightful abode in a central location in Keswick, look no further than Fran’s Nest.

Fran’s Nest was perfect in every way for our long weekend hiking in the Lakes.

Great location for the pubs and restaurants. Decorated and furnished to a high standard. Lovely welcome pack which was well needed after a long drive up ! Would definitely recommend and will definitely return to Fran’s Nest !!
