This first floor apartment has its own private entrance accessed by external concrete steps. . For customers seeking something special with stunning lake views, then Derwentwater View must come at the top of your list. This luxury first floor apartment is one of 9 other apartments in Harney Peak, a former Lakeland Hotel converted, refurbished and upgraded to a high standard, situated in the peaceful attractive village of Portinscale. This is an ideal base for couples, families or a small walking group to have a luxurious stay whilst exploring the Lake District.
The open plan layout provides a spacious, light and airy space, comfortable seating for all, and a view across Derwentwater and down towards the Borrowdale valley. In fact, many of the well-known fells can be seen from a number of the apartment windows including Carl Side, Swinside and Walla Crag, inspiring views to get you exploring. Should you choose to stay in and relax, the sumptuous sofas and a good read are maybe all that you need, with the large picture window leading onto the balcony to enchant you with the surrounding beauty.
The apartment has a Scandinavian feel, with aesthetically clean modern looks, and a brightness that evokes a sense of calm. A well-equipped kitchen has everything you need to start the day with a hearty breakfast, or an evening meal to enjoy around the table with good conversation and laughter. Each bedroom is lavishly decorated, with plush bedding and comfy beds for a good night’s sleep. There are three bathrooms, including an en-suite to wake up revived and refreshed to start your day.
Follow the footpath to the lake or to nearby Keswick, where you will find an abundance of small independent shops, outdoor retailers, cafes, bars and restaurants. Whilst on your doorstep, Portinscale is home to many of Wainwright’s walks, including the famous Catbells- this is the perfect base to leave the car and get out on foot. Alternatively, there is one of Portinscale’s renowned tea rooms just a few strides away, with tasty home cooked food. The nearby Derwent Marina offers various water sports, or catch one of the launches to explore the lake and surrounding beauty. Shop 1½ miles, pub 200 yards and restaurant 100 yards.

Fantastic base for exploring Keswick & Lakes
We had a great time (with family for part of the stay) celebrating my wife’s special birthday. Location is really good for exploring Keswick & its walks etc, and property very well appointed with tremendous views and its own safe parking. We did have a couple of minor hiccoughs during the week but the service personnel supported us efficiently & quickly. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend and revisit.

We loved our stay at Derwentwater View, the apartment is beautifully decorated and was very clean.
We loved our stay at Derwentwater View, the apartment is beautifully decorated and was very clean. There is plentiful kitchen equipment, including a good number of mugs - good for enjoying hot drinks and being able to fully load the dishwasher. The sheltered balcony with a view over the car park to the lake and Walla Crag was great even in the cooler autumn weather. It’s an easy walk into Keswick from Portinscale although it is worth taking a torch if it’s dark. The Chalet cafe is just across the road from the apartment, we had breakfast on our final morning which was very good and felt very safe as they were careful to implement the Covid guidelines correctly. There is also a traditional pub in the village, a few minutes walk from the apartment which offers traditional pub food. The apartment is next to a hotel and there can be little bit noise in the morning from bin lorries etc, however this didn’t cause us any issues. It didn’t last long so it was easy to ignore. Would highly recommend. Review independently collected and verified by Reevoo
