Its a lovely Victorian house with period features but with all the mod-cons.
We are keen outdoorsy people with a range of hobbies including rock climbing, mountain biking and canoeing. We love living in Keswick as there is so much to do right on our doorstep!
Keswick is the Adventure capital of England BUT Keswick has a strong cultural reputation: two Museums, a thriving Theatre with two stages. When Samuel Johnson said "if you are tired of London, you are tired of life", he meant Keswick!
