Directly opposite the apartment is a small path leading to the old railway track that has been developed as a path and cycling trail.
This forms part of the C2C cycleway.

Our part of the C2C cycleway offers fine views of the River Greta, East on the way to Threlkeld, or a very pleasant stroll in the other direction into Keswick.

This "railway track" part of the C2C cycleway runs for approximately 5 miles from the old station in Keswick, to the picturesque village of Threlkeld.
Our visitors can use the track as a very pleasant route into Keswick, or in the opposite direction, as access into the countryside North and East of the town.

Derwentwater is just at the other side of Keswick.
These and other lakes, offer excellent sailing and fishing, amidst fine scenery.
