Property is an ideal base to explore Keswick and surrounding areas.Property itself could do with updating, bathroom looks dated. Kitchen last time we visited was very good, had everything we could possibly could have needed, this time not as well equipped.Bedding and towels, again need replaced with new.The property is perfect for families, near to parks and walking distance into Keswick, once car is parked, you don’t need to move car - 2 minutes walk to nearest bus stop .Good property .

A great location within easy walking distance to many fabulous fells as well as all Keswick has to offer. Accommodation was good although a little tired in places. Very comfy beds. Would benefit from 2 keys for the property.

A fabulously located cottage which was immaculately clean and well provisioned. Really spacious - all rooms were large and comfortable. Kitchen was well equipped. Managed to get parking outside (not sure if it would be as easy in high season). Would 100% stay again.
