    “Friendly owners, lovely little cottage.”

    Lovely surroundings with plenty to do eg walking, near keswick where friends were paddle boarding, nearer Penrith than Keswick with things to do there. Cinema at Rhehed which is ~ 8 minutes away by car. Dog friendly though dogs are meant to stay downstairs. Welcome pack inc schloer, milk and biscuits. And they will accept food deliveries for people staying though you need to discuss when it can arrive as owners might be out. This is a handy piece of info I'm noting for my next stay!

About the location

PENRUDDOCK

Keswick 11 miles; Penrith 6 miles.

The charming old village of Penruddock sits in a secluded position in the northern Lake District between Keswick and Penrith, and just four miles from Ullswater. The village is spread out amongst beautiful rolling countryside and wonderful scenery and is made up of a number of farm dwellings, traditional Lakeland homes and two churches. Penruddock originated in Celtic times, with the name derived from Pen, a Celtic name for 'hill' and 'rhuddawc' meaning red in Welsh to reflect the reddish brown colour of the soil found in the area. Nearby, the popular town of Keswick is the holiday centre of the north of the Lake District and has plenty to offer, boasting numerous shops and restaurants to suit all tastes, as well as offering miniature golf, some good parks, the Theatre by the Lake, a charming cinema and the beautiful lake. Penruddock provides easy access to the spectacular surrounding Cumbrian countryside which can be explored by both car and on foot, and with the southern Lakes, Eden Valley, Solway Coast and Hadrian's Wall all within easy motoring distance this great location has plenty to see and do for all the family.
