Located in the centre of this renowned Lakeland village, commanding a prominent elevated position and retaining much of the original character. Dalegarth House Guesthouse is a handsome Edwardian property, offering a wonderful opportunity to purchase a detached spacious period home and business, set within delightful grounds (0.43 acres) and benefiting from 12 parking spaces and a double garage. The property has spacious and versatile accommodation, including a dining/breakfast room, guest lounge/bar, good sized kitchen and laundry room and 10 well appointed ensuite guest rooms. The owners' accommodation is a separate area, with a large sitting room enjoying the pleasant surrounding views, office, bathroom, two bedrooms and a third bedroom on the first floor.

The current owners have continued to care for the property during their ownership and as a result the property presents extremely well. This is an exceptional opportunity to purchase a picturesque residence in this sought after village location.



Portinscale is a delightful village offering all of the Lake District charm and views. There is a strong sense of community in the village and it also has excellent facilities, for example a village hall, café/restaurant and marina. It is a short off road walk into Keswick, and Portinscale is set back from the A66. It is an easy commute to a number of surrounding villages and towns including Keswick, Cockermouth, Grasmere, Penrith and the M6.  The West Coast mainline station at Penrith is a 25 minute drive away and has direct routes to Scotland and to London, which is just a 3 hour train journey away.



Mains electricity, gas, water and drainage. Gas central heating. Double glazing installed throughout. Telephone and broadband connections installed subject to BT regulations. Please note the mention of any appliances/services within these particulars does not imply that they are in full and efficient working order.



From Keswick, proceed out of the town towards the A66. Turn left on to the A66 and proceed approximately half a mile. Turn left signposted Portinscale. Proceed over the bridge, round a right hand bend past the Farmers Arms down to a sweeping right hand bend. Dalegarth Guesthouse is on the left hand side at the top of the hill past Dorothy well, before reaching the right hand bend around to The Challet.
