Guests say
Topsey Turvey is a well-regarded cottage in Keswick, praised for its central yet quiet location, comfortable furnishings, and well-equipped kitchen. Guests appreciate the proximity to local attractions and the added convenience of a garage, despite its size limitations. The property is described as cosy, clean, and good value for money, with a few minor issues regarding rubbish collection and maintenance.
The cottage is generally described as clean and tidy. However, a few guests mentioned issues with rubbish collection and a full bin on arrival, which suggests room for improvement in waste management.
The location is highly praised for being central, close to the lake, shops, and pubs, yet situated in a peaceful and quiet courtyard. It's considered perfect for exploring Keswick and the surrounding areas.
Guests find the cottage comfortable, with cosy furnishings, comfortable sofas and beds, and a spacious living area. Some guests mentioned issues with ventilation in the top bedroom and the shower facility, but overall the comfort level is rated highly.
The cottage is well-equipped, particularly the kitchen, but there are comments about the small garage, problematic rubbish collection, and a few maintenance issues like the TV setup and bathroom condition. No mention of WiFi issues in recent reviews suggests this may have been resolved.
There are no mentions of gifts or special touches that would indicate thoughtfulness from the hosts. Therefore, this category cannot be scored.
