Escape with someone special to this idyllic hideaway on the Derwent Water in Cumbria. The Georgian house is located on it's own private island surrounded by woodland and gardens. The beautiful town of Keswick is only a few hundred metres away across the lake but access to the island is only by boat, allowing complete privacy for guests who stay at this stunning property.
The house is owned by the National Trust, and you will be surrounded by authentic works of art, rich fabrics and handcrafted furniture. The bedrooms are warm and deliciously comfortable. The public rooms include a spacious and fabulously relaxing sitting room with a wonderful log fire, an indescribably impressive formal dining room, and a stunning covered terrace overlooking the lake and the mountains beyond.
The views from the property are utterly amazing and this is the perfect place to stay for a complete break from city life. There is masses to do in the area and everything that the Lake District has to offer is on your doorstep, or you can just relax, sit back and admire the view. Boat rides can be arranged on the lake and Keswick has some excellent restaurants for evenings out. This property is ideal for a romantic couple, a small group of friends or a family party of up to 10.
