Location

Keswick is one of the largest and main Lake District towns, drawing in visitors most of the year round. Whilst some of the Lake District towns are only bustling during the summer months, Keswick's sectors tend to trade well most of the year. The town has an array of amenities as well as superb access to some of the Lake's best walks and fells.

The town benefits from good transport links via the A66 trunk road, linking it with Penrith to the east at Junction 40 of the M6 motorway, and the towns of Cockermouth and Workington to the west.

Main Street in Keswick offers a good shopping destination where multiple national retailers can be found. In addition, there is a range of strong independent retailers, particularly selling outdoor wear clothing and various pubs and café/restaurant operators. Station Street is a good secondary trading location for Keswick, conveniently nestled between Main Street and Fitz Park. The building is well-positioned at the top end of Station Street. Surrounding occupiers include a mixture of national companies and well-established local independent retailers who have traded from Keswick for years.
