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.

As a base for hiking or walking and exploring the nearby fells, it is perfect as it is within 1 minute of all that the lovely town of Keswick offers. Yes, it could do with a bit of tlc, and I do only mean a bit, but I would recommend 3 The Hollies as great value holiday accommodation for your money.
