Guests say
Greenstone is a beautifully presented bungalow in a peaceful location on the edge of Keswick, offering a comfortable and spacious stay with a lovely enclosed garden and excellent walking opportunities nearby. Guests appreciate the modern décor, well-equipped kitchen, and relaxing atmosphere. While some mention minor issues with cleanliness and maintenance, the overall experience is positive, with many guests keen to return and recommend the property to others.
Most guests found the property clean and well-presented, but several noted issues such as dusty light fittings, dirty crockery, and a clogged vacuum cleaner. Some areas, like kitchen handles and spider webs, could benefit from more thorough cleaning.
The property is praised for its quiet, private setting just outside Keswick, with easy access to walks and the town centre. The location is ideal for those seeking both tranquillity and convenience.
Guests consistently mention the comfort of the beds, furniture, and overall layout, with the bungalow being especially suitable for older guests and those with dogs. The garden and showers are also highlighted as particularly enjoyable.
The cottage is well-equipped with crockery, cutlery, and cookware, though some items are worn and could be replaced. Maintenance issues such as non-working towel rails, outside lights, and limited TV signal were noted, but overall facilities meet guests' needs.
Some guests appreciated a welcome pack that previously included a bottle of wine, though this is not guaranteed. The property is generally well-stocked, but small touches like spare bulbs and a fan for summer would enhance the experience.

Great location, just outside of Keswick up a steep hill, but private and quiet. Bungalow was great, beds and furniture very comfortable. Nice to have an en-suite as well. Some blinds in the front windows would be a great option, also blackout curtains in main bedroom. Lovely enclosed garden. Some lovely 3 to 4 mile flat walks around Keswick.

We had a lovely stay at Greenstone. It was comfortable and homely and large enough for 4 people to relax without feeling like you are tripping over each other. Garden has gorgeous views but steps up to the grass bit were a little steep, maybe a thought for those travelling with elderly dogs. Driveway says for 2 cars, we had an estate and a SUV and had to do a lot of manoeuvring to get in, and then no one could get in and out except for driver so meant a bit of planning ahead for trips and packing/unpacking the car in the street. Also road is unadopted so has a few holes and bumps. Walk into Keswick about 20-25 mins along the cycle path was lovely. Maybe a few utensils and pans need updating but overall a nice stay.
