About this cottage rental

Step inside this romantic retreat for two and you will immediately feel right at home. This welcoming Lakeland Cottage is accessed via the large doorway from the patio area, which leads into the spacious open-plan kitchen and dining room. This light and airy room makes the perfect space to cook and dine with delightful views looking toward the fells and Borrowdale Valley. The kitchen is well equipped with electric oven and hob, fridge with freezer shelf, dishwasher, microwave, and plenty of cookware. There is a useful utility room which houses the washer-dryer.

The lovely bedroom has a superking-size bed (can be made up as twin on request) with luxury crisp white bed linen, plenty of storage space, and views either side to the nearby woods and field.

The bathroom has a bath with a shower over it, ideal for relaxing tired muscles after a day out exploring, a recessed washbasin and a handy heated towel rail.

The inviting lounge has comfortable seating, wall-mounted smart TV, and double aspect windows.

There are two pretty patio areas, both with seating. On warmer days these are the ideal spots to gaze at the surroundings and soak up the beauty of this isolated setting while enjoying a moment of calm with a good book or a glass of wine.

Across the drive, the adjacent owner's house and garden are a delight to look out upon, and wildlife, including deer and red squirrels, can often be seen in Great Wood at the rear.

The cottage makes the ideal base for both nature and adventure seekers, as well as those who like the convenience of town amenities nearby. There is an abundance of choice when it comes to walking routes from the doorstep including Derwentwater lakeside and the fells, or why not bring your bike with you to see even more of this beautiful area with pedal power. There is designated lockable storage for bikes and equipment.

The cottage is located just over a mile from vibrant Keswick town centre, an easy walk along a footpath or by the lakeside. There you can explore the unique independent shops, restaurants, cafes, traditional friendly pubs, and the popular market on Thursdays & Saturdays.

We enjoyed another lovely stay at Deer Close Cottage. It really is perfect in every way - comfortable, clean and great location. This time we saw a deer and a few red squirrels in the garden. We can't wait to return in a few months!

We stayed at Deer Close Cottage primarily due to it's location in the Borrowdale Valley. We are 'bagging' the Wainwrights and the cottage is close enough to tick a few more off. It is only a short and very lovely walk into Keswick for a 'down' day and food/drink. The cottage is as beautiful as it looks on the website in a stunning, peaceful location. We were so pleased and the cottage far exceeded our expectations. It is extremely well equipped and so cosy, a home from home and not compact, such lovely space. There are lovely views from all rooms, perfect if staying in on a rainy day. Wildlife is abundant if you like watching birds/deer/cows, just bring a sack of bird food you will be constantly entertained! Lying in bed at night you can hear owls in the adjacent woods.... bliss. The owners are perfect hosts. Deer close cottage is situated in the immaculate grounds of their beautiful home and contactable if you have any questions otherwise you are left in total privacy. The terraces to the front and year are a blissful place to relax on a sunny day. To summarise, this cottage is 'Absolutely Perfect'! We will definitely be returning.

We had a lovely stay at Deer Close Cottage in Keswick in July. It was a nostalgic return for us as we actually stayed next door 16 years previously when it offered B&B's! This is a perfect cottage for 2, nestled on the edge of quiet woods, offering stunning views of Catbells opposite and just a 5 minute walk to the lake. We had everything we needed for a relaxing evening after active days walking and cycling. Warm, quiet and comfortable with generous living space and close to Keswick.
