About this property
At the heart of it all in the beautiful north country! The bustling market town of Keswick plays host to your little gem of a Lake District bolthole. A characterful end-terrace cottage perfectly central to this well-loved cultural and geographical Lakeland hub, you have everything on your doorstep, and a blissfully tranquil base to fall back on after your adventures are over! A small family or two couples will find Little Leveret Cottage the ideal pick for a rejuvenating break in the North Lakes.
A pleasingly central yet peaceful location in a Victorian residential area of Keswick, the situation of Little Leveret is equally ideal for dropping in to the popular twice weekly market in the square by the iconic moot hall and for ambling down to the shores of Derwentwater and picnicking in one of the most idyllically placed parklands in the whole country. Keswick is a wonderfully vibrant and beautiful base for your holiday at all times of year, with those fabled Northern Fells clustering round the traditional slate-built village and higgledy-piggledy streets of the chief centre of the North Lakes.
Please note- Our neighbours at the back have a right of way to access their property through our patio and gate. They both run guest houses and are very happy to chat to visitors. They have a collie dog which is always on the lead when it comes through. They will announce themselves if your dog is loose as the collie is not always sure around other dogs.
The popular town of Keswick is the holiday centre of the North of the Lake District and has plenty to offer the visitor at any time of year. The town boasts numerous shops and restaurants to suit all tastes, as well as offering miniature golf, excellent parks, the famous Theatre by the Lake, a charming cinema, the Pencil Museum, a climbing wall, fishing and great mountain biking opportunities, whilst the beautiful lake of Derwentwater at the head of the stunning Borrowdale Valley is only a few minutes walk from the town centre. Nearby, between Braithwaite and Buttermere is the beautiful Newlands Valley, while picturesque Bassenthwaite Lake is well worth a visit. From a gentle countryside ramble to a challenging hike up Skiddaw or the famous Catbells, there really is something for everyone. Visit Castlerigg Stone Circle, the Jennings Brewery and Mirehouse, a grand house and gardens on the shores of the Bassenthwaite Lake, or take a fabulous boat trip around Derwentwater. With plenty of attractions for the kids, lovely parks and the nearby Lake District Wildlife Park this is a great Lakeland destination whatever the time of year.

Examples include layers of dusk on the bathroom edges around the walls with tissue litter and dog hairs down the sides of the sofa and grubby rug. The vacuum cleaner under the stairs was out of charge ncluding the spare battery, which wasn't charging up, so had to be moved to a different plug to charge and use, its a small thing but would have been useful to use as the floor was dirty when we arrived. Outdoor space was clearly listed as shared access with the rear houses, however we were rudely reminded by the woman from no 2 midway through the week when we sat outside on the table and chairs that they used the route frequently and we must keep it clear at all times..we were and we had done exactly that? Otherwise the stay was pleasant and in a good location.
