About Applethwaite

Applethwaite perches above Derwentwater, 4km from Keswick in the central Lakes. Take the A66 from Penrith, then A591 north before turning onto country lanes. The village sits amongst fellow hamlets like Ormathwaite and Millbeck, connected by typical Lakeland roads threading between stone walls and woodland. With roughly 16 fast charging points nearby, it's well-served for electric vehicles. The converted 17th-century farmhouse housing Applethwaite Gallery displays contemporary Lake District artwork.
