“Lovely accommodation.”
Ideal for shops and park. Parking was OK but too short for Kia family car (we found it very difficult to park, snd close the gates). The second car parking space outside the gate was OK, but proved impossible when large vans parked right up to the gate post line. Small criticisms, I know, but visitors with large vehicles would struggle to park and close the gates.
The kitchen, lounge and bedrooms are lovely, and although the area is very busy, it is quiet in the evenings and overnight. We really rated its close proximity to Fitz Park, which is an absolute delight for all age groups, with lots of space and activities. The park has a lovely cafe, and is only five minutes from the cricket ground, and massive children's play area including an enclosed five a side football pitch.
Some of our party were on their eighties, and found the nearby town centre safe, and welcoming, but very very busy. The market was super, and full of local produce, and products
Visit the tourist Centre, another gem.
Hi Pete, thanks for your informative feedback about Keswick and in particular, our fabulous Fitz Park. There is always something sporty or musical happening there, or you can just sit and enjoy the beautiful gardens and watch the River Greta swirling along. We are so fortunate to have a parking space at Friar’s Roost, as it is rare for such a property in Keswick. We park our MPV comfortably on the drive and have never found the need to close the gates. You were visiting Cumbria during a prime holiday season when it does get busy, so we’re pleased that you had such an enjoyable stay.
