Description   Welcome to Gallery Mews Cottages Gallery Mews Cottages are housed within a 200 year old Lakeland barn, idyllically situated three miles to the west of Keswick, within the Lake District National Park. The tranquil location is set within spectacular scenery and commands views of the majestic peak of Skiddaw at the front and is set against Thornthwaite Forest at the rear. The cottages are in the village of Thornthwaite, between Bassenthwaite Lake and Derwentwater, and enjoy the benefits of a secluded well-kept garden. Cottages are for 2, 4 or 6 people. The Cottages can be inter-connected to provide accommodation for up to 12 people. There is an excellent variety of good eating close by with a choice of a healthy selection of pubs and inns. Thornthwaite, having ready access to the A66, makes an ideal centre for touring the northern and western fells and lakes, providing an easy holiday option for walkers and tourers alike.
