The cottage is set in a beautiful location. The views especially from the kitchen are amazing. There is parking for two cars on the drive which is a bonus in keswick. The cottage is well equipped the only thing it lacked was a fan but other than that there was nothing lacking. We have stayed in the cottage five times and would throughly recommended it.
