The stunningly located town of Keswick, nestled on the shores of Derwentwater, has a

wide array of shops and galleries. Eating out in Keswick is a joy with an exciting choice of restaurants, pubs and cafes. Explore the five major lakes, picturesque valleys and unspoilt villages with the mountains of Skiddaw, Helvellyn and Scafell all within easy reach.
