The property is situated in Threlkeld, a village just three miles from Keswick. Threlkeld is located at the foot of Blencathra looking towards St John's in the Vale and Clough Head at the Northern end of the Helvellyn range. Positioned just off the A66 and fifteen minutes drive from J40 of the M6, this is an ideal base for not only exploring the Lake District but also for days out to the Eden Valley and Carlisle.
The village has two pubs and also one at Scales nearby where you can enjoy a drink or a traditional pub meal. Other amenities include a Post Office and newsagents, along with a children's playground.
Heather View is a great base for those who enjoy walking where you can walk out of the garden straight onto the fells. In fact there are plenty of opportunities for walking from ascents up Blencathra and Skiddaw to lovely low level and riverside walks. The village is also an ideal base for all types of leisure activities including golf with Keswick Golf Club nearby, along with watersports at Ullswater and Derwentwater which are both easily accessible.
Threlkeld is on the route of the popular Coast to Coast (C2C) cycling route from Workington to Sunderland. You can also walk or cycle along the former railway line from Threlkeld into Keswick.
