It’s perfect for groups of couples and families, and if you’re looking for an excellent base for that family reunion, look no further. The Old Workshop is located in a quiet residential street, just off the town centre. There’s a private parking space and ample street parking meaning you can leave the car behind and enjoy this popular market town on foot.

Keswick is full of narrow streets with independent shops and courtyards, and has an abundance of bars, pubs, restaurants, cafés, coffee shops, delis, outdoor shops, and every other type of shopping experience you could imagine. This traditional market town is full of great things to discover. If you like culture check out the Theatre by The Lake, with award-winning arts and drama on the banks of Derwentwater, where you can also hire a rowing boat or even take a dip if you need to cool down. For fun you could try Puzzling Place, a mind-boggling attraction based on optical illusions or the Derwent Pencil Museum, home to the largest pencil in the world. Or if you want a wild day out, try The Lake District Wildlife Park at Bassenthwaite being 8 miles away, or The Lakes Distillery offering daily tasting and tours, which is also only 8 miles from the property. If you like walking, cycling and climbing, you are surrounded by some amazing scenery and routes around Latrigg and Catbells, and nearby you’ll find Skiddaw, Blencathra and Helvellyn to name a few.

Great property, ideal location

Lovely comfortable spacious cottage, everything you would need. Ideal location, just a 2minute walk to town centre. Off-road parking a real benefit in Keswick too! Highly recommend for a family stay.

Wonderful cottage beautifully decorated, really well equipped and spotlessly clean.

Wonderful cottage beautifully decorated, really well equipped and spotlessly clean. Some lovely homely touches including a fabulous welcome pack and muscle relaxing bath salts made it feel like a real home from home. Located in a quiet side street but with everything Keswick has to offer right on the doorstep. Park handy for early morning and late night toilet stops for our 2 dogs. Perfect!

Lovely holiday let in a great location

The property is very nicely equipped and has been recently been decorated in a charming manner. The location is excellent for Keswick. It's always a good sign when the kitchen for a holiday let is well stocked, and that is certainly the case here. We had a couple niggles regarding some entry mats that smelled quite badly of animal urine - we had to put them outside the property due to the smell. Hopefully easily remedied. Also I think the property could benefit from strong internet connection as we weren't able to stream successfully on the TV at all times, and there is no freeview. Again, things that can be fixed. The owners clearly care about their guests and property so I would assume these issues will be addressed and I would certainly consider staying here again.
