    Keswick 10.9 miles. Perched on the popular Whitbarrow Village in Penrith near Keswick, Cumbria, is this wonderful holiday home, Squirrel Cottage. Enjoying a superb location just on the edges of the Lake District National Park only ten miles from Keswick and Ullswater, with access to a wealth of on-site facilities, including the Eden Bar/Restaurant, crazy golf and putting green, a games room with pool table and tennis table, a gym, steam room, sauna, jacuzzi, children’s splash pool, outdoor children’s play area, giant chess board, indoor heated swimming pool, a duck pond and woodland walks, along with the activities of quad biking and horse riding at nearby Rookin House, Troutbeck, Squirrel Cottage is a fantastic choice for couples, friends and families. The property is also based 8 miles from Penrith, making it the ideal base for exploration. On the ground floor, you will find three well-presented bedrooms, two doubles, one with en-suite shower room, and a bunk, the latter of which are served by a beautiful bathroom, where you can freshen up with a soak in the bath or under the overhead shower. Head upstairs to find a light and airy open-plan living space, featuring exposed beams, where you will find a fully-equipped kitchen for rustling up your best dishes, ready to savour at the dining table for six as you toast to a memorable getaway, or alfresco out on the balcony with a view! After dinner, retire to the sumptuous seating in the sitting area, outside, or visit the facilities on-site in the bar, pool, or leisurely walks around the holiday village. If you can tear yourself away, head to the nearby pub and restaurant and treat your loved ones to a meal at The Sportsman Inn, a short drive to Greystoke, Boot and Shoe or stock up on fresh produce at the Basecamp North Lakes Farmshop and Kitchen. Continue onto Penrith, where you can delve into history at the Penrith and Eden Museum, visit the magnificent Penrith Castle, test your swing at the excellent Penrith Golf Hub, enjoy wildlife-rich walks through the Thacka Beck Nature Reserve, or hike up Beacon Hill to soak up the breath-taking, panoramic views on offer. Venture into the Lake District National Park, where you can enjoy a wealth of scenic walking and cycling trails, as well as visit Ambleside, home to a fascinating Roman Fort and the stunning Stock Ghyll Force, or further to Windermere, where you can take to the waters of the famous lake, visit The World of Beatrix Potter Attraction and sample fresh seafood at Hooked. All this and more awaits at Squirrel Cottage.
