Guests say
The Buttermere Apartment in Keswick is praised for its excellent location and convenient parking. Guests appreciate the inclusion of a washing machine and a Murphy bed. However, there are suggestions for updates and a deeper clean, particularly in the bathroom and kitchen.
Several reviews mention the need for a deeper clean, with specific references to a dirty extractor fan, dustiness, and a musty atmosphere. The bathroom cleanliness was frequently criticised, impacting the overall perception.
The location is consistently highlighted as a major plus, with the apartment being just minutes from the town centre and offering parking, which guests found very convenient.
Comfort received mixed reviews. Guests mentioned uncomfortable mattresses with dips, an uncomfortable sofa, and a lack of practical furniture, suggesting that comfort could be significantly improved.
Facilities are deemed adequate with room for improvement. Positive notes include a good washing machine and a large TV, but guests also reported worn carpets, rust on radiators, and a lack of kitchenware.
There is no mention of gifts or extra touches that would indicate thoughtfulness from the host, so it is not possible to provide a score in this category.

Although I said I would recommend, yes locations great and not too expensive for near centre of Keswick BUT apartment is tired in several aspects. Examples are poor cooking implements, bathroom really needs updating (hence poor mark for cleanliness as it just looks like it’s not too clean) and the mattress is not very comfortable as it has dips where people sleep.

We've used this apartment for the past 3 years and you wouldn't find a better place to stay

This cottage would be great if it wasn't so dusty and musty. Couldn't even sit on the lounge or I would start coughing uncontrollably. My wife ended up with a piece of glas in her foot walking in the kitchen. Other than that the place would be great.
