“Great apartment extremely comfortable and clean would definitely book again.”

- Mrs Hardman, July 2021
Mrs Simpson July 2021

“Access to the property is via a small lane behind a row of shops/ restaurants but it’s a Lovely clean house and great position in Keswick with everything you need in a property, it’s near to everything in town and great for exploring the area.”

Property states dog friendly which is great, but there is no where to let dog out, eg garden, as it stated in email we received twice( in its own private grounds overlooking the Rusland valley). Although there is a lovely park a few mins walk away. Overall thoroughly enjoyable week in Keswick and the Lake District, loads of great pubs, shops and restaurants and market on a Saturday and Thursday. Definitely be coming back.

We have been coming to Keswick for years, first with our own children now our grandchildren. This is by far the best property we have stayed in. Thank you for such a beautiful place to stay.

“The cottage was central and very well equipped and of a superb standard, particularly as this is a dog friendly cottage.”

This is the second time we have stayed here and can't fault it. We'll definitely be back.
