About this cottage rental

Skiddaw Skies is situated in a quiet no through road in the heart of Keswick, an ideal location for easy access to local amenities, Fitz Park and the beautiful Lake Derwentwater, yet tucked away from any passing traffic or passers-by. This beautiful apartment is the upper floors of a lovely Victorian property, accessed by a flight of steps, and its elevated position provides fabulous panoramic views across the fells from all windows.

The lounge is spacious, light and comfortable, with two settees, dining table and chairs, internet enabled Smart TV with integrated DVD, CD player and large windows looking across Keswick towards Catbells and the north western fells. This room has an open fire for cosy winter evenings and books and maps on the local area are provided.

The modern fitted kitchen is situated next to the lounge and is well equipped with an electric oven, gas hob, dishwasher, washer/dryer, fridge, freezer, microwave and a breakfast bar with great Latrigg views.

The luxurious main bathroom is fitted to a high standard, with a large shower, roll-top bath, wash basin and WC.

On the middle floor, there are two adjacent bedrooms. The large double bedroom has oak furniture providing plenty of storage space, a flat-screen TV and a super-king sized bed from which the fantastic fell views can be admired. This room has an ensuite bathroom with a shower, wash basin and WC.

The second bedroom has twin beds, oak furniture and views towards Skiddaw.

The top loft floor of Skiddaw Skies has been recently converted to a third bedroom with twin beds, oak furniture and ensuite WC with basin. The two large velux windows on either side of this room provide amazing views of both Skiddaw and the north western fells. All bedrooms are dressed in luxury linens and towels.

There is a superb roof terrace with furniture which is the perfect place to sit and take in the wonderful scenery over a sunny breakfast or on summer evenings. A private parking space for one car is allocated just opposite the property.

Skiddaw Skies is suitable for bookings with one small dog.

Please note the property has a number of flights of stairs so may not be suitable for guests with mobility issues.

Reduced occupancy may be available for this property if only one or two bedrooms are required. Please contact the office to enquire.

Excellent few days in Keswick all based around lovely accommodation

This is the the 5th time I’ve stayed at Skiddaw Skies (plus one stay in Ridgeways, the flat below)…. So that really says it all. It’s perfect in every way! From the gorgeous bathroom to the wonderful terrace. The kitchen is a ‘cooks kitchen’….weighing scales, casserole dishes, plenty of baking trays, measuring jugs etc. As a family we prefer to eat in, and the property has everything you need including ample crockery and glasses so that the dishwasher doesn’t need to be on every verse end! The only thing that I would consider to be an improvement would be the inclusion of an air fryer- but by no means a deal breaker!

Booked for a week as our usual choice was taken. We are so pleased we tried this wonderful house. It is well stocked for self catering, has a large kitchen with breakfast bar with wonderful views over Latrigg. A very warm and comfortable house, a home from home. The bathroom is very large and spacious with a lovely large tub and shower. The sitting room is equipped with books, games and DVD’s along with fantastic views over Catbells, Causy pike and Scar crags and on a clear day you can see for miles. Good communication from Keswick cottages regarding arrival and departure. A very comfortable stay.

Despite the weather we had a lovely stay at Skiddaw skies. The apartment was beautiful, clean, well equipped and in a great location. My daughter loved the selection of toys and games to explore. We couldn’t have asked for more.

We had an excellent week at Skiddaw Skies and the views did not disappoint. How great to be able to wash-up and see the fells at the same time. The apartment was warm, cosy and comfortable with plenty of books, games and DVDs and the central location was great for the shops and bus stops (we did not bring the car). We particularly loved the large map in the kitchen so we could plan our walks. The only improvement would be to have a pyrex casserole or two, with lids, for re-heating food.

It is a lovely property and some of the views from inside were spectacular. We found that it was kept to a very high standard and was very welcoming. Anyway, all in all, we have all had a very pleasant experience. The common shower is INTENSE! Loved it.

Skiddaw Skies has a great location being within very close walking distance of shops, restaurants, the food coop, and even hiking trails. We were able to walk to several of the trails right from the front door. The rooms are cozy (but not small), and the lounge is full of books, games and DVD's for all ages. The kitchen is modern and stylish.
