Perfect 3 bedroom 2 bathroom property , ideal location , pleasant walk into Keswick town centre. Off street parking , but can be a bit tricky if neighbouring properties are in use otherwise very handy to not have to worry about a space near by. All kitchen equipment was there , anything / everything you can think of , been here before , it’s soo cosy , warm in the winter and cool in the summer , nice little back garden to sit out in if it’s nice out .

Although the accomodation was a little further away from town than we are used to, it made up for that in internal space, cleanliness and complete silence. The parking spot is a little tight for a larger car, but a total necessity in Keswick, as parking on the street is in very short supply. Overall, an excellent choice for accomodation in Keswick as long as a short walk into town is not too inconvenient for you.

We had a great time and the house was perfect for our family including a 1, 5 & 7yr old and my mum too.Had a slight hiccup on arrival and whilst frustrating cottages.com dealt with the issue as quick as they could and thou unfortunately meant a more stressed first night did resolve the issue the following day.Would of like a welcome pack/note/folder with key info in one place as had to search for it, and toaster could do with replacing.
