If you’re looking to escape the pressures of daily life and immerse yourself in a beautiful location surrounded by uninterrupted mountain views, this characterful holiday home (which sleeps up to four people) is the place to stay.

According to recent guests, the cottage is not only full of “immense character and charm”, but is “good for the soul” too. With no more than a few dozen houses, Applethwaite is the most sought-after village around Keswick, and it isn’t hard to see why.
