Keswick
is only 18 miles away from the M6, but a world away from the ever increasing pace
of the rat race. Here you can relax and enjoy the contrasting attractions of a
lively holiday town and magnificent surrounding landscape, where even at the height
of the season you can still find peace and tranquility.
Within
8 miles there are five of the most beautful Lakeland lakes - Derwentwater, Bassenthwaite,
Thirlmere, Buttermere and Crummock Water. These are eaily approached either by
car or even the local buses
