4-bed 2-bath Maisonette sleeping 6 In central Keswick with stunning views
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 2024. 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.

About the host
Hosted by Anthony & Lorna
We both have vivid and exciting childhood memories of the Lake District. Living in the North East of England means this great adventure playground is less than a 2-hour drive away. Our spare time is spent enjoying the beauty of the Lake District or keeping fit to help in our challenge of walking all 214 Wainwrights (we have just bagged our 148th (Feb24) - just when you thought you knew the Lake District well, embarking on the Wainwrights has opened up a whole new world.
Why they chose this property
We've always had a close affinity with the Lake District and when we purchased Crandy Nook (the building is actually Grandy Nook but is affectionately known to us otherwise) in 2007 we became part of it! We chose the property as it offered something different. Other factors were its location, the high quality conversion (it's a Victorian property, built in 1891) and the stunning views from the top floor. The market town of Keswick is popular all year round and has a certain aura.
What makes this property unique
The views of Skiddaw and Whinlatter Forest across the Keswick rooftops from one window, Walla Crag, The Dodds and Castlehead from another, are simply stunning. Latrigg is visible from the main bedroom bay window. The property is "home from home" and is handily located in the centre of town, a few minutes walk from the Moot Hall, from where many of the local walks begin. There is a wealth of good pubs and restaurants nearby.
