A ten-minute level walk will bring you to the centre of Keswick - this picturesque market town offers all facilities, good restaurants, pubs, shops, cinema and the well-known Theatre by the Lake with ‘live’ theatre all year round. The local park offers tennis and bowls and there are level walks and cycle trail following the line of the old railway around the town. Hill walkers will love the surrounding fells - the summits of Latrigg and Skiddaw can be done without any need to use the car, and you mustn’t miss a lake cruise on beautiful Derwent Water - a joy in any season.
