The Ghyll, Applethwaite, Nr Keswick

An attractive and secluded stone and slate Lakeland in Applethwaite near Keswick. The house situated in ten acres of garden and woodland with a tumbling beck. It occupies a fine position on the south facing flank of Skiddaw with superb views across the vale of Keswick to the Newlands Fells. There is a small waterfall near the house, a number of woodland paths and a gate from the grounds leads directly onto the slopes of Skiddaw.
