Crandy Nook, built in 1891 of traditional lakeland stone, is a fabulous 4 bedroom maisonette converted to an exceptional standard in 2007. Centrally located in the popular market town of Keswick, the views of Skiddaw, Walla Crag, The Dodds, Castlehead Wood and over the rooftops towards Bassenthwaite, Dodd, Skiddaw and Whinlatter Forest, from the lounge and kitchen are simply stunning. Crandy Nook is offered on weekly, weekend or short break options with Monday or Friday changeover days.

Set over 3 floors above a coffee shop, on the top floor, with a vaulted ceiling, is the open plan lounge and kitchen diner, a cosy haven in which to relax and socialise. The contemporary kitchen is very well equipped with induction hob and granite work surfaces.

There are 2 bedrooms (2 doubles, a three-quarter (Queen) and a single) and 2 luxury bathrooms on each of the other 2 floors. Both bathrooms have walk-in showers, baths and heated towel rails.

The accommodation continues to achieve Visit England 4* rating, the last annual assessment being March 2023. We're very proud of our 9.8/10 Vrbo rating (35 reviews).

Keswick is an all year round popular destination on the shores of Derwentwater. This friendly town hosts the twice-weekly market (Thursdays and Saturdays) that has recently won the coveted "Best Outdoor Market" in the Great British Market Awards.

There is something for everyone. Activities include a variety of water sports, wall climbing, paragliding and swimming. Go Ape and mountain biking are in nearby Whinlatter Forest. Keswick also offers two large public parks which offer games facilities in open, wooded and garden settings. Other facilities include a new sports hall, leisure pool, cinema, golf (pitch and put and Keswick Golf Club), cycle hire and fishing. Why not try the 400-seat Theatre on the Lake or a cruise on Derwentwater.

You are spoilt for choice for walking. Use Keswick as a base or take in day trips to Ullswater, Crummock Water and Buttermere or further afield, the South Lakes. Personal favourites of ours are Dale Head & High Spy, Grisedale Pike, The Dodds, the Borrowdale Valley, Latrigg and the walk around the shores of Derwentwater. Those who are more adventurous, will head for Sharp Edge on Blencathra or Striding Edge on Helvellyn.

The holiday cost includes 2 parking permits for use in the neighbouring church car park.

We welcome one well behaved dog. For infants, we provide a travel cot (please bring bedding) and a high chair.
