“We love Grisedale Cottage.”

It was our second visit there. We love the location and that it is cozy, warm and well equipped, even with a slow cooker, which we really appreciate.

“We have had a lovely stay in this cottage as we always do.”

This place feels like a second home! Be sure to try Grasmere Gingerbread!

“Another visit to this property.”

Spectacular views which we never tire of seeing. Such a shame we had to leave! But the dogs needed some rest!

The property

Set in the delightful Newlands Valley at the foot of Catbells and Causey Pike, Grisedale Cottage makes a great base for a holiday in any season. From here you can make the most of some of the finest peaks in the Lake District and with valley rambles for easier days and plenty of places to visit by car you will never be short of something to do. For the more energetic the Newlands Adventure Centre is close by, offering a range of activities such as rock climbing, canoeing, ghyll scrambling and archery. For a more leisurely pace take a short walk to Derwentwater (about a mile and a half) and catch the launch from the pier to sail across to Keswick or down to Grange in Borrowdale. You can walk beside the nearby Newlands Beck, stroll up to the Swinside Inn for bar meals, or take a short drive to Braithwaite for the village shop and a choice of pubs. Keswick has year round theatre, cinema, markets and shopping. Accommodation: This attractive cottage is at the end of a short row of 19th century former mill workers' cottages with a more recent extension adding a real feeling of space. Entrance up a few steps into the little hallway with coat stand and hooks. A doorway leads to the second bathroom with shower, basin and wc. Cosy sitting room with bay window (TV with freesat HD, Blu-ray DVD, video, Wi-Fi) and multi-fuel stove. Three steps lead up into the dining kitchen, which has a rear door to the garden and windows at each end. Stairs from the kitchen access the first floor where there are three good sized bedrooms - one double with king-size bed, one double and one twin. Family bathroom has bath with separate shower, basin and wc. Grisedale Cottage is comfortable in all seasons with fitted carpets throughout, some exposed beams and a cosy cottage feel. Heating is electric with off peak storage heaters, panel heaters throughout and there is also a multi-fuel stove in the sitting room. Outside: Enclosed wooded gardens mostly of lawn with mature trees and shrubs. Patio and Picnic table outside the kitchen door. Lockable bicycle store. Private parking for one car plus further parking at a small extra charge (honesty box). Phone box in lane behind cottage approximately 50 yards.
