Holiday cottage to rent in Rosthwaite, Cumbria

Accommodation details

There’s loads to see and do near this lovely first-floor apartment in the village of Rosthwaite, 6.5 miles from Keswick, including great walks, water sports, rock climbing, and shopping. The apartment is one of five in Kiln How, a lovely large Victorian house. It has a spacious garden and two bedrooms, ideal for friends or family. The flat is up the stairs from the shared hallway and has contemporary styling throughout.

There’s an open plan living room/kitchen/diner with space for everyone to hang out and eat together at the end of the day, with a Smart TV, an electric fire and great views of the fells and valley. You’ll find everything you need in the kitchen and down the hall are the double bedrooms, and family bathroom.
