About this property

Appletree - a house that sleeps 6 guests in 3 bedrooms

Appletree is in the quiet Lakeside village of Portinscale (just outside Keswick) and has some fabulous views of the surrounding fells with local access to lakeshore and marinas.

On the ground floor there is a large open plan lounge, dining/kitchen area with patio doors out onto a paved patio area and enclosed garden. The lounge has two, three seater settees, an easy chair, TV, DVD, CD player and an open fire (ideal for a cosy night in). The kitchen is well fitted and has fridge, freezer, double fan oven and gas hob, dishwasher, microwave etc. Off the kitchen there is a small pantry for food storage.

On the ground floor there is a large bedroom with Smart TV and zip/link beds which as standard is made up as a super king size bed but can be made up as two single beds (there is a £15 charge for this). Also on this floor there is a fully tiled shower room with large drench shower,WC and wash basin.

Upstairs there are three bedrooms. The main bedroom has a king-size bed, is nicely furnished and has lovely views towards the fells. Off this room is a fully tiled en-suite shower room with drench shower, WC and wash hand basin (with underfloor heating to the tiled floor during the winter months). The twin room is spacious and has Smart TV, two single beds wardrobe, drawers, dressing table etc. and again has fabulous views towards the fells. The fourth bedroom has a double bed and looks out towards Skiddaw. This room is offered at £50 for a short break and £75 for a full week. All bedrooms are beautifully dressed with luxury linen and towels.

The fully tiled bathroom has a bath ( which can be turned into a Jacuzzi Bath at an additional charge if requested) separate curved shower cubicle, WC and wash hand basin.

The house also benefits from a fantastic multi-purpose garage/utility space, with plenty of room to securely store bikes, kayaks etc. as well as hanging space for walking gear, a washer/dryer, and there's even a hot or cold dog wash so your canine companion can get squeaky clean before heading inside to get comfortable after a day out exploring!

To the outside there is an enclosed garden and patio with table, chairs & parasol. Please be aware this property is not suitable for hot tub hire.

There will be no need to worry about parking as the property has a large private driveway.

Appletree Haven
We've been coming to Appletree Cottage for many years as it suits our needs perfectly. For a start it's in a fantastic location for access to Keswick and the surrounding countryside. There are soo many walks straight out of the door that you could manage for a week without a car! It's always clean and tidy and well presented. The views overlooking Skiddaw from the front window and Cat Bells/Barrow Hill from the rear are stunning. Easy off road parking for 3 cars and a small enclosed garden for the dog make it ideal for us. Looking forward to coming back next year.

Christmas in Portinscale
Our second time at Appletree. It has had an update since we were last there, lovely new kitchen. It's warm, cosy ,well furnished, comfy beds & hot showers. Well placed for a short walk into Keswick. The Farmers Arms just a short stroll is a lovely family pub.There is also The Derwent Hotel & pub a short stroll away. Our only negative is the oven & hob are quite complicated even with the instructions ,we did manage eventually to cook a full Christmas dinner. Will definitely be back.

A LOVELY HOUSE
This was the first time we stayed in this accommodation. We have for the last 10 years stayed in a complex in Keswick centre but have found it to be getting very noisy. This was a great property to stay in, very comfortable and lovely and quiet. Dogs are allowed and there is a perfect small garden to let them out. The only very slight problem was not enough bowls and measuring jugs for cooking as we eat in every night and our stay was for 10 days. Apart from the above, it is a great place to stay and have booked again for next year.
