On the banks of the River Greta and just across the road from the "Twa Dogs Inn, Glendera is one of a pretty row of stone built cottages. The sitting out area and herb garden at the front of the cottage face south and make the best of the sunshine. To the rear is a conservatory with garden chairs and a small gravelled garden over looking the river - a haven for watching bird life. From the rear this row of cottages seems away from the town altogether, yet Keswick is only a short walk away. The "Twa Dogs is a friendly family pub serving meals and there is a useful garage shop nearby. Walks go straight to Threlkeld along the old railway line, or to Latrigg.
The sunny south facing sitting/dining room has plenty of character with exposed beams and stone-built open fireplace, comfortable chairs and sofa bed. Moving to the rear of Glendera is the kitchen with the back door leading through to the conservatory and a lovely view of the river. A winding staircase leads to a double room, single bedroom and the bathroom, all attractively decorated. A further winding stairs leads to an attic double bedroom with Velux window giving glimpses of Latrigg through the trees.

"Hi Vanessa
Just a quick note to say we had a wonderful time in Keswick, helped by the weather I'm sure :0). But more importantly the cottage was absolutely delightful so cute, small but perfectly formed as they say. We will return and have told family and friends about our time away, but not too many folks, just in case we can't get in again ourselves :0). Thank you so much for all your help in making our mini break so easy and straight forward to arrange, it worked like clockwork.
Many thanks again
Best wishes, Steph (March 2012)."
