The Theatre by The Lake on the shores of Derwentwater is worth a visit for an evening performance.

Summary: The cottage is lovely. Very clean and comfortable in a beautiful quiet location with the mountains as a backdrop.The cottage was warm with extra towels and blankets available.Everything necessary was provided for self catering with a nice village pub within a 15 minute walk which served good food.Would have appreciated a welcome pack with milk for our arrival. But appreciated tea coffee etc to make our arrival pleasant Would stay there again .
