Lovely property, spectacular view!
We had a lovely week staying in Swallows Lodge. The beds and sofas were comfortable and the kitchen well equipped.
There was plenty of space for five of us, plus a large dog. Having two bathrooms and toilets was useful, and there was a clothes airer as well as an outside washing line.
We were extremely lucky with the weather as it was warm and dry for the entire week, so we didnât need to use the heating. There were plenty of heaters so I imagine it would be warm in colder weather.
The views over Derwentwater to the mountains on the far side of the lake are beautiful and can be enjoyed from the living area through the bifold glass doors or from the outside terrace area. It would have been nice to have a couple of more comfortable outdoor chairs.
The view comes at the price of a long downhill walk into Keswick and the equivalent uphill on the way back!
It is really easy to access the main A66 for car trips further afield and there is a bus stop at the end of the lane (although we didnât use the bus). The walk over the Castlerigg Stone Circle takes about 30 minutes.
We would definitely consider returning to this property in future.
