Guests say
3 The Hollies in Keswick is praised for its superb location, stunning views, and the convenience of on-site parking. Guests appreciate the quiet yet central setting, comfortable beds, and the spaciousness of the property. While some modernisation and maintenance are suggested, particularly in the bathroom and kitchen, the property's charm and the added festive decoration during Christmas are noted positively.
Guests have reported that the property could benefit from a deeper clean, with mentions of mould in the bathroom, dust, and crumbs in various places. The need for better cleaning has been a recurring theme, affecting the overall experience.
The property's location is consistently lauded as excellent, being central and quiet with easy access to local amenities and stunning views. The added bonus of allocated parking is highly valued by guests.
The comfort of the property is generally well-regarded, with comfortable beds and a cosy atmosphere highlighted. However, some guests have noted that certain rooms can be cold, and the noise from the fridge-freezer has been a minor inconvenience.
While the property is considered well-equipped, several reviews point out the need for maintenance and modernisation, especially in the kitchen and bathroom. Issues with mechanical ventilation, inadequate heating, and tired decor have been mentioned.
There is no mention of gifts or special touches that would indicate thoughtfulness from the property owners, so it is not possible to provide a score in this category.

The property needs urgent maintenance. The bathroom sealant is terrible as is the lack of working mechanical ventilation. The radiators in the kitchen and bathroom are woefully inadaquate, making both rooms very cold. The above have also been raised by many previous visitors in the guests log book, but no action has been taken.

Superb location, fully equipped flat in the heart of Keswick. The bed was very comfortable and quiet 😉. Pubs are a minute away. The allocated parking is a godsend, and we will be staying again as its the perfect base to explore. I've stayed in many places in Keswick, but this is the one that ticks the boxes most fully for me.
