Carlton House Apartment 1

Very central, and convenient for Keswick Convention.

Parking in the church car park nextdoor was very useful. It was very clean. We would stay again. However, the property needs maintaining: there was mould on a wall of the master bedroom (suspect it needs more ventilation!), the shower sliding door had one roller broken (still usable, but needs careful handling), the curtain rails in a couple of rooms were missing the stops, meaning that when we arrived the curtains were falling off because they'd been pulled back too far, and the blind in the bathroom had its handle broken off and sitting on the window sill. On the last evening the hot water failed: on inspection the heating circuit pressure was low, hence easily fixed if you knew what you were doing, but clearly no one had checked it for a while. Crockery was enough for four people, but it was very much the case of washing up after each meal. There was a bottle of hand soap in the bathroom, but it was almost empty when we arrived, and there were only 4 dishwasher tablets (for a week?!) yet there were two bottles of washing up detergent, giving the impression that no one had checked these things. One point to note: there appears to be very little insulation between the floors of the flats. We could hear someone above us snoring in the evening! Outside noise was not a problem. Overall the property itself is fine: just needs whoever is managing it to do more than clean.

After one year there are still only two cooking pans and one of them has a loose handle.

The Internet connection is quite poor. It would cease working at all on occasion unless the owner had set it to turn off completely every now or then. The bathroom tiles showed black mould and the window blinds were broken and dirty. The property was none-the-less warm and comfortable but it is beginning to show its age.

Excellent apartment, clean and comfortable .

Nice place to stay, some instructions for heating, tv, cooker would have been helpful.

Lovely property, right next to the town, bed were comfortable and lots of space, kitchen well equipped

NOT A 4* PROPERTY.

SHOWER SEAL BROWN BRITTLE AND SPLIT AT THE RIGHT HAND CORNER OF THE SLIDING DOOR. ONLY 2 SAUCEPANS FOR COOKING, NOT EVERYONE CAN AFFORD TO EAT OUT!! I WONDER WHEN THE OWNER LAST VIEWED THE PROPERTY.

Generally OK Not the most comfortable .

Was clean enough but round the shower cubicle cubicle needs a bit of work as it is going moldy round the edges also the skirting boards need some attention. Didn't think it was worthy of the high price we paid.

The property was lovely and clean , the only downfall was the upstairs neighbours , we could hear them walking about and talking .

The location was great , just a few minutes walk from the centre, there is plenty of bars and restaurants near the property.

Perfect central apartment.

Just a few minutes walk into the centre of Keswick. Apartment was well equipped, warm and cosy. Shower was best we have come across. Slight noise from upstairs but not as bad as we were expecting. Free car parking space was a bonus. It meant we could explore the area without having to use the car. Would love to stay again if given the opportunity.

Location is amazing and apartment was generally perfect for our wee family.

We had a brilliant week- a great base to explore Keswick and beyond. A few little things need resolved in the apartment- multiple lights out in the kitchen, the light and fan above cooker not working and the clock out of battery. Not big things that impacted our stay at all but stuff that you notice- no spare lights in kitchen cupboard as stated in welcome book either. The bathroom also has some black mould which could do with being removed. Only other comment that can’t necessarily be easily resolved is the lack of soundproofing from the apartment directly above- when the family above us moved around it sounded like they were in our apartment and we could hear their conversations loud and clear! We were out most of the day but it wasn’t ideal later at night (or the morning they got up at 5am!!).

Could do with a sear out the back, considering the heat at the time.

A clean, homely apartment in a great location with good facilicites and equipment, and extra touches like maps, dishwasher tables etc were an added bonus.

Beds very comfortable but both sofas uncomfortable which was a bit disappointing and the only thing that let the apartment down a bit. Would be good to have a shower attachment in the bath especially as there was an outlet for one to be fitted. Would also be good to have blinds or voiles in the living room windows but these are minor personal prefences and overall very happy with our stay.

Only problem we had was the parking.

On occasion we couldn't use our space in car park due to event in the Church which was inconvenient.

Lovely and clean and well equipped flat- parking is a great bonus

Nice clean and tidy apartment fantastically located Would have liked to have had enough coffee for each of us to have a cup a day and there were no dishwasher tablets supplied
