“The kitchen utensils need reviewing.”

Frying pan awful I had to purchase one for my use. Not really enough utensils. Also I found the instructions for the refuse and recycling very confusing. We did what the next door neighbour did, assumed that was ok.

- Jennifer, April 2026

Thank you for your feedback - we would always encourage guests to contact Sykes/Lakelovers during their stay if there are any issues as these can normally be rectified at the time. There are two new frying pans in the house now (one large and one small). There are a a variety of utensils provided in the drawers and cupboards including colander, sieve, bowls, oven dishes, pots and pans and a selection of spoons, turners, etc. We have reviewed the refuse and recycling information to ensure that it is clearer that the wheeled bins at the front of the house should be used - I appreciate that the collection dates are varied but these are governed by the local council collections. Once again, thank you for providing the feedback. Kind regards Helen Property Owner
Lucy April 2026

“A comfortable, compact but modern bungalow.”

Good quiet location, yet only a 15m walk into Keswick and its amenities, with views of hills from the front door! Parking good, and a friendly neighbour ade our holiday a relaxing experience .

- Lucy, April 2026

Thank you for your lovely feedback. Glad you enjoyed your stay! Property Owner
Maxine January 2026

“Lovely cosy clean and tidy cottage.”

Fairfell was warm and in a real good location. It ticked all the boxes for a short stay and we wouldn't hesitate to book again. Thank you Maxine and Simon

- Maxine, January 2026

Thank you for your lovely feedback. Great to hear you found Fairfell a lovely place to say. Property Owner
Helen October 2025

“Clean and comfortable with a well-equipped kitchen and bonus of a porch area which meant we could leave our boots and wet weather gear out there to dry each night.”

The living room is so warm and comfortable, as are all the beds. Plenty of towels provided. Lovely powerful shower as well. No complaints, will absolutely look to stay here again when we're next in Keswick.

- Helen, October 2025

Many thanks for your lovely feedback. So glad you enjoyed your time at Fairfell. Property Owner
Dennis June 2025

“Shared drive quite steep and narrow .”

Addition of an electric charging point to be used night time only when rates are cheaper would be really good . Also extra ? maybe a small counter top dish washer in the kitchen , otherwise the bungalow was really well equipped and clean , lovely find , thank you .

- Dennis, June 2025

Many thanks for your feedback; it’s always appreciated. Glad you enjoyed your stay at Fairfell Property Owner
Linda May 2025

“A comfortable stay.”

Near enough to Keswick to walk into Keswick, even with bad knees! Everything you need for self catering. We've booked for a 4th time

- Linda, May 2025

Oh wow - thanks for the lovely feedback. Great to hear you've booked again! Property Owner
Peter May 2025

“Fair fell was extremely comfortable and had all we needed for our stay.”

The walk into Keswick was easy Overall the cleanliness was good but one or two areas had been missed by the housekeeping staff. However this did not impact our stay at all. The bungalow was provided with plenty of kitchen and cooking equipment but could do with one more dessert spoon and one more small mug for when four people are staying. A towel ring or hook near the wash hand basin would be useful. We noticed that you can unlock the back door to the porch from the outside but you can’t unlock it from the inside and the drainage from the shower is very slow. However we really enjoyed staying at Fairfell It was everything we wanted and more. Thank you very much

- Peter, May 2025

Thanks for your feedback - always appreciated. Glad you found Fairfell comfortable and enjoyed your stay. Property Owner
Anne April 2025

“Great bungalow and lovely garden would definitely stay again .”

Two things a bit annoying but didn’t spoil our stay freezer needed defrosting old ice cream left in it . Twin bedroom having to move the bed so you can close the door is a bit of a pain maybe sliding doors may work . Fabulous bathroom

- Anne, April 2025

Hi - Thanks for your feedback. Glad you enjoyed your stay. Property Owner
Katherine March 2025

“Main light in bedroom did not work, needs a proper bulb.”

A cafetiere for nice coffee and a hoze pipe for bikes would be useful additions please. Cleaner needs a kick up their backside - Cobwebs, muck behind doors, oven stank when used as not cleaned around top grill and dust under beds is incredible. The place needs a deep clean and not just the spray of air freshener that greeted us when we entered. Otherwise it was comfortable and we had a pleasant stay.

- Katherine, March 2025

Thank you for your feedback. Glad you found Fairfell comfortable and pleasant. I have spoken with Lakelovers/Sykes regarding the issues you have raised so they can be dealt with. It is always helpful if concerns are raised as soon as they are identified so that action can be taken to resolve them during your stay. Again many thanks. Property Owner

“Nice quite location, but close enough to town, the property was clean, and ...”

Nice quite location, but close enough to town, the property was clean, and kitted out with all the necessary equipment, the drive is a bit steep so I chose to park on the road outside the property,

- Steve, February 2025

Thank you for your feedback - it is much appreciated. Glad you liked the location and the property. Property Owner
Linda November 2024

“The only negative was that the fridge freezer part of the fridge was thick with ice and left little room for anything.”

Turned fridge off before leaving to allow defrosting with bowl to catch drips. Bathroom lovely with a very powerful shower and comfy beds and cosy. Great we could still watch Netflix and WiFi was beneficial and within walking distance to,town

- Linda, November 2024

Thank you for your feedback. Apologies for the fridge freezer issue, it is sorted now and we will keep a check on that for future guests. Glad you found Fairfell a comfortable place to stay and liked the newly fitted bathroom. Hope to welcome you back to Fairfell when you are next in the Lakes Helen Property Owner
Pauline September 2024

“This was our 2nd stay here.”

And would like to stay again. It's a great location. Nice views. And neighbour was fine. Saw him a few times and was friendly. The bungalow had everything we wanted. The double bed was very comfy. But my sister in law who slept in one of the single beds said mattress was hard and couldn't sleep. The 2nd night she placed the duvet from the 2nd bed onto of her mattress and slept much better. So maybe a mattress topper could be the answer. The bungalow is around a 10 minute walk from derwent water. And closer to main bus stops outside of booths. Weather was perfect. And had some beautiful walks. . Look forward to returning and staying here again. Can't wait to see the new barhroom

- Pauline, September 2024

Many thanks for your feedback, its always appreciated. We are looking forward to the new bathroom too! Glad you enjoyed your stay and hope to see you again soon. Property Owner
Ian Peter September 2024

“The property was in a good location within walking distance to the centre of ...”

The property was in a good location within walking distance to the centre of Keswick clean and with modern decor and very cosy nice garden with views across the fells The smaller twin bedroom had very little storage space for two adults sharing the room whilst this isn't always a problem (,depending on the party staying there)I feel Sykes cottages could note in the property description that storage in the twin room is very limited other than this it's a good back for a holiday in Keswick

- Ian Peter, September 2024

Many thanks for your feedback, its always appreciated. Glad you enjoyed your stay and hope you will consider us for future stays. Regards Helen Property Owner
Vicki August 2024

“Property felt damp, clothes left on shelves had a damp feel to them, 2nd bedroom door didnt/couldn't close as bed over hung doorway.”

Not very good room for children as stopped them getting to sleep easily. On checking under units and behind beds to see if we'd left anything, there was lots of dust and a baseball cap from a previous guest so not being fully cleaned. Double matress was incredibly soft, and single mattresses incredibly hard, uncomfortable for all parties. Parking, stopped at top of drive to get kids out, neighbour complained straight away. (His exact word... if i wasn't going out, I'd be TELLING!!! you to move!) Explained getting kids and bags out and kept chat amicable but totally unnecessary. Yes, it's in notes to park at bottom but to be fair it's surely his problem if he can't get on his own drive. Can't get over the fact he thinks he can TELL me, an adult to park somewhere particular when I'm within the property boundary of accommodation.

- Vicki, August 2024

Thank you for your feedback. Sorry that Fairfell didn’t live up to your expectations, it is always worth raising issues whilst at the property so there is an opportunity to resolve at the time. We have tried to ensure that it is welcoming and comfortable, and do get a great deal of positive feedback from our other guests. In terms of your specific points regarding the property, 1. I have checked the property and can see no evidence of damp. 2. The door in the small bedroom will close so long as the bed is not pushed up right against the wall. I will ask Sykes/Lakelovers to ensure the bed is left in the correct position for future guests. 3. The beds are all high quality and I am sorry that you did not find them comfortable - we get lots of feedback to the contrary. 4. In terms of the parking. I am sorry that this happened and I will speak to the neighbour about it. Again, thank you for your feedback. Regards Helen Property Owner
Clare July 2024

“A very comfortable and compact bungalow, perfectly situated for Keswick town centre, with road links to other areas.”

The kitchen is very well-equipped and the beds are comfortable. The garden is well kept and pleasant to sit in, with lovely views of Latrigg and the other local fells. The handrails on the steps were useful for access; a handrail in the shower would be useful too. Thank you for a lovely holiday.

- Clare, July 2024
Colin June 2024

“Felt at home as soon as we walked in the door.”

Had everything we needed. A great base to explore the Lakes.

- Colin, June 2024

Thank you ever so much for your lovely feedback. It’s great to hear you felt at home. Looking forward to welcoming you back when you are next in the Lakes. Property Owner
Simon May 2024

“We had a nice stay and the place was clean and tidy.”

Everything we needed for a one week stay and a good location just a few minutes from the centre but nice and quiet. Parking was OK, we parked on the road with no problem. The garden at the back is a good size for sitting out weather permitting. Perhaps some photos of this would help market it more.The neighbour was a friendly chap and always had a bit of a chat with him. Overall good stay.

- Simon, May 2024
Robert November 2023

“Had a lovely few days here.”

Cold and frosty at night but bright and sunny all day. Always warm and cosy. Everything we needed. Perfect location, minutes from town. Some old food left in freezer compartment a bit smelly but easily disposed of. Next door gentleman very friendly. Many thanks to owner. Rob & Tina

- Robert, November 2023

Many thanks for your feedback. Sorry about the freezer food - thats shouldn't happen so will ask Sykes to make sure that is checked more thoroughly. Glad you enjoyed your stay and hopefully we will welcome you back next time you are in the Lakes. Property Owner
Roy November 2023

“Really nice stay, weather was a bit of a damp squib, but we still enjoyed the stay.”

Could do with some hooks on bathroom door, also there is mould in the large bedroom in the corner near the window, I suspect it is down to the extension next door.

- Roy, November 2023

Many thanks for your feedback - it's always appreciated. Glad you enjoyed your stay at Fairfell despite the weather. Hope to welcome you back when you are next in the Lakes. Property Owner
Carl October 2023

“The property was fine but the main reason ruining our stay at Fairfell was the vile neighbour who half an hour after our arrival threatening to smash our car up and said he would make our stay terrible as he wanted to use our drive to turn his car into his own drive.”

He said he was sick of F/ing tourists staying there.Had to leave on the Tuesday.

- Carl, October 2023
Sara October 2023

“The property is well furnished and is great for accessing the town.”

It was well equipped. The furnishings are lovely and the style is modern. However, the porch has large damp patches with a strong smell. We have had to wash everything we had with us due to the smell throughout the house. The house itself smells musty. I was particularly concerned about the dampness as I have asthma and our daughter is just 2 years old. The kitchen was cleaned to a reasonable standard but when looking behind or under things there was often mildew or dust. The hoover had not been emptied. There were cobwebs throughout the property. Much of the paintwork needs updating. The corners and skirting boards were dirty. In the smaller bedroom, the door does not shut without moving the bed. Cleaning materials were kept in one of the under bed drawers - this is unsafe for children. Luckily our toddler did not find this. The radiator leaked and marked the bed covers. The white grout on the bathroom floor was brown, yellow and dirty. The shower wall was covered in mildew and the fittings needed a good clean. The toilet was leaking at the base. In the main bedroom, there was a damp patch in the top corner and mould on the carpet below. We let Sykes know about this and they offered to send a cleaner but, having arrived and realised we had no other option (we have a toddler so not all properties are ideal for us) I cleaned a lot of it myself to make it liveable. I have taken photos of all of this so that we can follow this up. Having stayed in a four tick rated Sykes property in the summer, we were shocked at the difference in standards, particularly cleaning.

- Sara, October 2023

Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry that you weren't satisfied with the level of cleanliness at Fairfell, this is something that we take seriously and we will pass all your comments on to the relevant departments. Unfortunately as you said that you did not wish for a cleaner to go back, we didn't have opportunity to investigate nor resolve the issues. We would like to reassure you that the problems you had have been investigated and action taken where necessary. The owner relations team - Lakelovers Property Owner
Elaine September 2023

“Fair fell is a lovely bungalow in a peaceful area , nice and clean.”

15 minute walk into the town of Keswick. We did a lot of walking but lots of rain, but the bungalow is very comfy so we chilled.

- Elaine, September 2023
Mark August 2023

“A year has past since we last stayed .”

We are happy with the property and it’s great location and only suggest the following points as improvements. The bathroom door sticks and is noisy esp if anyone goes to the loo during the night when it’s quiet . It’s enough to wake everyone else up ! The shower door still leaks from our last visit . As we also had a baby with us and did some washing, a few more pegs would be handy.

- Mark, August 2023

Thank you for your feedback, it is much appreciated and we will look into the issues you have raised. We hope to welcome you back to Fairfell when you next visit the Lakes. Property Owner
Elizabeth June 2023

“Very comfortable bungalow in a quite area near all amenities.”

Bungalow very clean and well decorated a few maintenance issues like cracked tiles and sink both in bathroom.bath needs a handrail.

Lisa May 2023

“We returned to Fairfell for a second time as we loved it so much last year.”

The location is fantastic and the bungalow is well equipped, comfortable and fairly well maintained. The only thing it really could do with is an extractor fan in the bathroom as it never seems to dry out in there and towels stay damp if you don’t take them out and put them on the clothes airer or radiators each day. A few times we put the heating on so we could use the heated towel rail but it was too warm for that really and seemed a waste of energy. The rest of it is lovely though and we would happily stay there again.

- Lisa, May 2023

Thank you for your feedback and it's great to hear that you enjoyed your stay. Hope to welcome you back when you are next in the Lakes. Property Owner
Jennifer November 2022

“We had a very wet week but it was a cosy property and very well appointed.”

The bed was particularly comfortable. The porch was very useful to take off boots and outdoor gear. It was well situated and we appreciated being able to walk into the town very easily and it wasn't much further to walk to the lake. We were a couple staying and so there was plenty of room.

- Jennifer, November 2022

Great to hear you had a good stay despite the weather and thank you for your lovely feedback. We look forward to welcoming you back to Fairfell when you are next in the Lakes. Property Owner
Marilyn September 2022

Jonathan July 2022

“We enjoyed our stay very much.”

Parking on the drive is a problem - we noticed that other residents who rented this property wrote that they parked on the road, though this too has its problems. A dishwasher would have been great, but we realise space is limited. The lounge/dining area was smaller than we had expected, but everything was fine. Thanks for having us! For Sykes, we were frustrated by the number of marketing emails you kept sending us - we would recommend you reduce these considerably. We didn't want to unsubscribe because we feared missing something about our booking.

- Jonathan, July 2022

Thank you for your feedback. Good to hear that you enjoyed your stay but sorry that you found the parking a little difficult. We have highlighted this in Fairfell’s information which details that parking can be tight for some cars on the driveway, but the road immediately outside the property is generally available to park on. Thank you for choosing Fairfell and we hope to welcome you back when you are next in the Lakes. Property Owner
Jenny July 2022

“Lovely clean smartly furnished house.”

Quiet location but only 10 minutes walk to restaurants and lake . A view of Skidaw from the garden is a bonus.

Helen April 2022

“Perfect place for a lakes holiday with a toddler.”

Great location for walking into/around Keswick and for short day trips out. Fairfell was very clean, comfortable and quiet (which was a surprise being so close to Keswick!) There was a lot provided with the property, but it would have been helpful to have a few more kitchen essentials, e.g salt and pepper, oil and kitchen roll.

- Helen, April 2022

Thank you for your positive and helpful feedback on Fairfell. Really pleased you and your toddler enjoyed your stay and we look forward to welcoming you back when you are next in the Lakes. Property Owner

Natalie February 2022

“Really great bungalow, clean comfortable and warm with everything we needed for our stay.”

Close enough to walk to town centre in 10 mins and plenty of walks to do from the door. Garden will also be lovely to sit in when wether is better. Genuinely can't fault it.

- Natalie, February 2022

Thank you ever so much for your fantastic feedback. We are so pleased you enjoyed your stay at Fairfell and hope to welcome you back soon. Property Owner
Claire February 2022

“Lovely stay in a lovely cottage, walking distance to the centre of Keswick so very convenient.”

Well equipped, clean and nicely decorated and made for an easy stay for our family of 4. Fantastic views from the good sized garden, weather was poor for our stay but in better weather this is a real asset. Drive is cosy but our C-max fitted fine.

- Claire, February 2022

Thank you for your lovely feedback. We are so pleased you enjoyed your stay at Fairfell and hope to welcome you back soon. Property Owner
Angela January 2022

“We have previously stayed in this bungalow and it is perfect but I’m not sure I understand the extensive cleaning, there were grease marks on the side of the extractor fan and one of your previous guests kindly left a pair of socks under the sofa!”

Obviously the carpet under the sofa doesn’t get vacuumed?The vacuum cleaner looks like it hasn’t been emptied for weeks. I also emailed your office twice asking for a 10 am checkout, I know that you say you can’t accommodate this but every other company we have stayed with in Keswick has asked the cleaner if this is ok as we normally do the park run at 9am , if it wasn’t possible that wouldn’t have been a problem but to not even answer my emails is bad customer service especially as I received a text at 03.41 and also an email telling us how to checkout?.

- Angela, January 2022

Thank you for your feedback. I am really pleased to hear that you find Fairfell perfect but sorry to hear of the issues you experienced with the cleaning and check out time. I have spoken to Sykes/Lakes Cottage Holidays and understand that they are liaising with you directly regarding this. I do hope you will consider staying at Fairfell again next time you are up in the Lakes. Property Owner

Sheila October 2021

“Like other holidaymeker we were also unable to park in the drive .”

This made it quite difficult for my disabled husbans as he had to negotiate the steps. This needs to be included i the property discription.

- Sheila, October 2021

Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry that you found the parking at Fairfell difficult. We have updated the property description as you suggested to outline that the driveway is more suited to smaller / medium sized vehicles as it can be a tight fit for larger vehicles. However, as you found, it is generally possible to park directly outside the house on-street as Fairfell is in a quiet residential area. We trust you found the rest of your stay at Fairfell enjoyable. Kind regards. Property Owner
Iain August 2021

“Very nice bungalow in a fantastic location.”

Quiet but also close to the centre of town. Bungalow fairly well equipped and well presented. Quite small for 4 people (we have 2 grown up children) but perfect adequate. Service from the agent excellent - there was a leak in the boiler that was fixed the same day. Staff very friendly and helpful. Would be happy to stay at Fairfell again.

- Iain, August 2021
Alison August 2021

“Our car wouldn't fit down the drive at the bottom as requested, so we had to park on the road.”

This was fine, but I feel it should be made clear on the info that larger cars may not fit. We specifically chose this property as it had parking.

- Alison, August 2021
Kenneth June 2021

“This property is advertised as sleeping four, with the twin beds in the configuration shown in the website photos this would be correct, however, in this configuration the bedroom door cannot be closed, the beds have to be pushed together and the bedside table moved to enable the door to close, this is not an acceptable situation.”

The garden furniture is child size and would be better if replaced with adult size seats and table. The lawn has not been cut in weeks and the climbing plant next to the garage is blocking the path.

- Kenneth, June 2021

Firstly, thank you for your feedback. We are really sorry to hear that you found the configuration of the twin room unacceptable; when the room is set up for guests, the beds should be configured as per the web photos but with the bed moved a small distance away from the wall - this allows for the door to shut. With regards to the garden furniture, it is standard adult sized furniture, and this is the first time that we have received this feedback. I am sorry that it did not meet your expectations. The lawn has now been cut and it had not been maintained to the standards expected. Arrangements are being put in place to prevent this in the future Once again, I would like to thank you for taking the time to feedback and help us make improvements for future guests. Property Owner

Only negatives tv and phone line disappear when weather is bad, and we feel we should of been told about the renovations at the adjoining property.

Peter August 2020

“Booking process and communication very good.”

Accommodation and location also very good. Clean, very comfortable and in excellent decorative order. Would have liked a summer duvet provided, or sheet and blanket. 13 tog duvet is too warm in August.

Mike February 2020

“Very comfortable, warm, clean and cosy accommodation.”

Very handy for the town and walking on the fells
