Newlands Beck Cottage

Newlands Beck Cottage is fully equipped for a self-catering stay, with essentials including bed linen, towels, Wi-Fi, heating and electricity all covered. The kitchen has everything needed to cook properly—electric oven, gas hob, dishwasher, fridge—while a utility room with washing machine and tumble dryer handles laundry. What makes this place distinctive are the bathrooms: the main bedroom has a roll-top bath with a separate shower cubicle, and the second bathroom features a whirlpool bath, also with its own shower. Downstairs, a wood-burning stove provides warmth and atmosphere.

The cottage sleeps four across two bedrooms—a super king in the main room with ensuite, and a double upstairs. Both have televisions. Communal spaces include a living room (smart TV, DVD, sound system) and a combined kitchen and dining area. There is parking for two cars on site, and storage for bikes and kayaks. The property is non-smoking.

Located in Newlands Valley three miles from Keswick, the cottage sits surrounded by woodland with direct access to fell walking and the beck at the bottom of the garden. The setting is rural and quiet, though a ten-minute walk brings you to the Swinside Inn if cooking isn't appealing. The owners have storage space for walking maps and guides. The cottage suits families, friends, or couples seeking a mountain base with genuine comfort rather than compromise.
