In the charming village of Portinscale, just 20 minutes’ walk from Keswick, 4 Harney Peak is ideal for couples and families with older children seeking to explore the heart of the Lake District National Park. There is a sense of warmth and welcome in this apartment on the first floor.

The Smart TV with Netflix is the perfect place to watch a movie together with some popcorn and a glass of wine on a cosy night in. If you want a hearty breakfast, the kitchen has everything you need, but nearby cafés and restaurants are all within walking distance so you may end up leaving without breakfast.

Featuring an en-suite shower room and Juliette balcony, one bedroom has its own bathroom. The property also benefits from allocated parking for 2 cars..



In the peaceful and pretty village of Portinscale, 4 Harney Peak was formerly a Lakeland hotel. There are many flat, off-road footpaths leading either down to the lakeside and marina or into Keswick, where there is an abundance of shops, outdoor specialists, cafés, and restaurants. The Keswick Launch can be accessed from Nichol End, allowing you to view nearby fells from the lake. You can enjoy the views from Catbells on a quiet evening stroll or head to Brandlehow Park along the lake shore path.

No customer Service

The property owner is a business with no help outside 9-5. We couldn’t get into the property. Fortunately VRBO customer service put us up in a hotel until the next day when property owner was open to help.
