Keswick, the northern Lake District holiday hub, has something to offer visitors at any time of year. The town has many stores and restaurants to suit all interests, as well as miniature golf, wonderful parks, the famous Theatre by the Lake, a quaint cinema, the Pencil Museum, a climbing wall, fishing and great mountain biking prospects. Between Braithwaite and Buttermere sits the lovely Newlands Valley, and Bassenthwaite Lake is a must-see. Everybody can enjoy a peaceful countryside stroll or a hard walk up Skiddaw or the Catbells. Alternatively, take a boat excursion around Derwentwater or see the Castlerigg Stone Circle. Great family attractions, parks, and the surrounding Lake District Wildlife Park make this a year-round Lakeland destination.
