“Great property for a big family!”

Very accommodating for everyone. We really liked that there was a lot of space for us all to be together but also there was the option to go off to your own room if needed. Which was made easy by there being a bathroom and TV in every bedroom. Great location as well, five mins away from the centre of Keswick. We were also grateful for the amount of parking available as we had all travelled from different places. Communication was great with the hosts as well, when asked if we wanted one of the ...

We were also grateful for the amount of parking available as we had all travelled from different places. Communication was great with the hosts as well, when asked if we wanted one of the rooms as a double or 2 singles. We would stay here again!

“Lovely house, fantastic location.”

The house was not as clean as expected on arrival, but much cleaner on departure. An indoor downstairs toilet would of made a huge difference for the elderly in our group. Really surprised to find there wasn't a hairdryer.

“Excellent accommodation for a large group.”

Central location with ample parking. Close to town centre and Fitz park.

“Hazelmere is a lovely house in the most fantastic location.”

The house was beautifully clean when we arrived and everyone was comfortable in their rooms. The kitchen had sufficient pots and pans for our cooking and the coffee machine with pods supplied was much appreciated. We enjoyed exploring the town and did several of the walks suggested in the helpful information for guests booklet. So much is walkable that the cars stayed out in their designated spaces for most of the week. We did have a problem with a light switch in one of the bathrooms, and when we reported it, a lovely chap appeared very quickly to sort it out. It was such a lovely holiday, we would recommend it in an instant!

Ian July 2024

“Hazelmere is in a perfect location for Keswick and all the amenities the town offers,only a short walk into the center.”

The house is large,all rooms spacious, immaculately kept and offering a perfect stay for a large group such as ours. There is ample parking for 6/7 cars which itself is a bonus in Keswick. We hope to return as a family in the near future. Thank you again to the owner.

Paul May 2024

“Our group of 10 family and friends thoroughly enjoyed our week at Hazelmere.”

The location is fantastic with a short walk into Keswick either by road or through Fitz Park. The A66 is two minutes away giving easy access to all the Lakes has to offer. The House itself satisfied all our needs including extremely comfortable beds. A hiccup with the electricity was dealt with immediately. We look forward to returning to Hazelmere in the future.

Carole April 2024

“Property was excellent for our family gathering and easily accommodated all 12 adults.”

Great to have private bathrooms in all the bedrooms. Kitchen had everything you could possibly need. Great facilities including a boot room with washing machine and drier. Parking spaces were great as this can be an issue in Keswick. Outdoor space, including 2 picnic benches was a bonus. Very well located, walking distance to town centre. Owners were very helpful.

- Carole, April 2024
Chris April 2024

“This is the perfect holiday home for 12 people from 3 generations.”

A short walk into the centre of Keswick and all the facilities; 7 bedrooms and all en suite and TVs, too; comfortable furnishings, great kitchen and absolutely all facilities you could want for a warm and dry, or cold and wet stay...we've had both! Lots of parking space for 4 or 5 cars. Dropped a star on maintenance but it only needed a loo seat tightened and a tap that was loose....both sorted by the owners when we reported them. Can't wait to go back next year!

- Chris, April 2024

Many thanks Chris for your positive comments and we look forward to welcoming you back soon. We try to cater for all ages and requirements at Hazelmere. Property Owner
Beth March 2024

“The property description is a bit ridiculous, however it is mostly accurate, and the property was a great base for a large extended family ranging from toddlers to grandparents.”

Having a shower in each room is a huge advantage, and the kitchen is mostly well equipped. The younger generation were disappointed not to find remotes for the bedroom TVs, and the WiFi signal keeps cutting out. It seems a petty complaint; after a busy day, it is nice to watch TV sometimes, and the TV set-up is disappointing.

- Beth, March 2024

Hi Beth, thank you for your feedback which we really appreciate. We have since upgraded all of the bedrooms with larger, new, Smart TVs . We chased up the wifi issue with the supplier and this has since been resolved. Hopefully you will consider rebooking with us in future. Kind Regards, James Property Owner
Michelle February 2024

“Great location, 5 minute walk into keswick close to all shops, bar and restaurants.”

There was loads of parking at the back of the house, room in the utility for all our bikes, lovely outdoor area. Inside the house was well equipped, loads of room ( we were a party of 10). The rooms all had bathrooms ( great showers) comfy beds. Kitchen well equipped and lots of seating in the dinning room. We loved it so much we want to book again.

- Michelle, February 2024

Thank you very much for your really positive comments Michelle. We look forward to welcoming you back to Hazelmere again soon. Property Owner
David October 2023

“Ideal property for Grandparents and two families of 4, with teenage children.”

Haxzemere was well maintained and had everything we needed. There was plenty to do in the surrounding area and just a short walk into Keswick.

- David, October 2023
Kathryn September 2023

“Lovely large property ideal for a group of 8 friends.”

Bedrooms very comfortable and kitchen very well-equipped. We were able to walk into Keswick centre where there are plenty of pubs, restaurants and cafés and buses to many places in the lakes.

- Kathryn, September 2023
Scott September 2023

“Hazelmere was a great location for a group of walkers.”

Could do local walks as well as venture further. Parking facilities particularly useful. Only note we would make is that the TVs in some of the rooms did not seem to work. Not that important as we did not spend much time in our rooms.

- Scott, September 2023
Phillip August 2023

“Thank you so much for our wonderful holiday!”

We had a really comfortable and well equipped place to get out every day exploring the region we love so much. Our extended family ranged in age from grandma to her great granddaughter and everyone enjoyed staying at Hazelmere very much. We look forward to booking with you again soon. Phil & Maria

John August 2023

“A lovely house but some of the bathrooms were a little cramped.”

Perhaps smaller hand basins would facilitate their use. Good quality carpets and furniture. We may be back!

- John, August 2023
Christine July 2023

“We loved staying at this property.”

As a group that included couples and single people working each day with adults with learning disabilities at the Keswick Convention, we found that Hazelmere was ideal to relax at the end of the day, to share a meal and chill. There is plenty of space, comfort and facilities in such a convenient location - and plenty of off-street parking too. We've already booked for 2024!

- Christine, July 2023
Tom June 2023

“Excellent accommodation for a big family group, we had a lovely stay and would visit again.”

Hazelmere is well appointed with everything you'll need, and a bathroom in every bedroom is a real bonus. Keswick is a fantastic base for a family holiday with plenty to do in the local area. The town centre is just 5 minutes walk away with plenty of pubs and places to eat.

- Tom, June 2023
Mike April 2023

“Great property.”

Our second stay for a family gathering. Clean, well equipped and good sized rooms. Located a short walk from town centre with easy access to and through Fitz park. Very pleased with our visit, helped by kind weather!

Janet September 2022

“We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.”

Close to Keswick town centre and amenities. The little extras just made it. Would definitely recommend and would definitely come again.

Mike August 2022

“Generously sized holiday house within easy walking distance of Keswick town centre and attractions, plus a friendly Jennings pub just up the road.”

The kitchen was well equipped, inc. 2 fridges, washing, drying and dishwasher machines, large sofas in the living room, large dining table and a range of comfy beds for single and double sleepers; each bedroom has its own keys for the room and house giving max flexibility for doing different things. We had an enjoyable week with wonderful weather. Outside space includes multiple parking spaces and washing line, but the gardens are open so if you take a dog beware to keep an eye on it so it does not run out into the road. Great views to the river and fells. Wifi coverage was good throughout the house, TVs in the bedrooms were older LCDs (not smartTVs).

- Mike, August 2022
Sarita July 2022

“Really lovely stay at Hazelmere, the whole family loved the property and was perfect for our needs with everyone having own bathroom and utility space for the dogs/walking boots etc.”

The house was cosy on rainy days with big living room and dining space, and nice outdoor space for when the sun was out. Only feedback was that the area was not enclosed for dogs but this wasn't a problem. Also no outdoor seating so if you have camping chairs and plan to sit outside it was good to have those. There were lovely features including coffee machine, some wine and snacks on arrival, boardgames and information book for the local area. The beds were comfy and the house was clean and kept to a good standard. Communication with the owner was easy, they were friendly and helpful. The area is perfect with a park leading to town 2 minutes walk away. Lots of parking on site too. We definitely want to come stay again and best holiday we've had in the lakes, lots of things to do in the area we rented kayaks and paddle boards at Derwent Marina and did lots of walks, sunset at Lattrigg was a highlight and walk up Catbells on a clear day was amazing.

- Sarita, July 2022
John June 2022

“Hazelmere is in an excellent location ideal for access to the town and its amenities.”

The interior is spacious enough for large groups and the bedrooms are big enough to swing a cat with great storage, tv’s ,huge beds and en-suite facilities. Our only gripe was with the patio area and rear garden, the patio is dirty and could do with a good clean and the addition of some seating and tables for out door dining. Similarly the garden is rather unkempt and doesn’t take advantage of the sunshine and spectacular view. Perhaps it’s a work in progress. This wouldn’t deter us from booking again! Just a note for the owner, there is a loose socket in bedroom 1, the shower head mounts are loose causing the heads to drop and there are no pegs for hanging washing on the line ,hope you don’t mind me mentioning that.

- John, June 2022
Barbara June 2022

“Fabulous house.”

Very clean & well equipped. Perfect location for walking. Parked our cars on arrival & didn’t use them again until departure. Would happily recommend the property.

- Barbara, June 2022
Anthony May 2022

“Fantastic accommodation, in a great position.”

Would've loved to have stayed longer. Only little disappointment was that, even though the house accepted dogs, it would've been perfect if the rear garden was enclosed so the dog could run around, which was a shame, although it did say in the description, hence we were fully aware of it at the time of booking. It didn't detract feom our wonderful stay though.

- Anthony, May 2022
Rachel May 2022

“There were 9 of us staying and everyone was catered for … we all had a private bathroom , lockable doors if required and, more importantly, plenty of parking spaces and loads of room for us all - a perfect place for us to stay and very central to the town too so everything was at a walkable distance Although generally clean overall … the odd area needed a bit more of a thorough clean .”

. towel rails etc but on the whole, no complaints

- Rachel, May 2022
Jayne April 2022

“Amazing house with everything you could possibly need and more to make your stay comfortable.”

The kitchen is fully equipped in case you want to eat in. There are board games and lots of books for adults and children. Three extra large comfortable couches in the living room. TV’s in all bedrooms (but not everyone has a remote) and every room is en-suite which is ideal when you have a large group staying. There is parking for 3 cars at the rear of the garden behind a fence, 2 cars by the back door to the property and two spaces at the front. There is a handy boot room at the rear to leave muddy boots and wet coats, there is also a washing machine and drier in there. The house is opposite the River Greta and if you turn left out of the property you will come to a river walk which you can enter through the Crosthwaite Road Car Park, this walk takes you through lovely parkland to the town along the riverside. If you turn right from the property this takes you turn to High Hill and you can walk along this road into Keswick Town and the many shops, pubs and lake walks. The lovely market was on in the town on Saturday and there are many places to eat and drink however I would suggest you book a table if you can at peak times. Just a point to note, which wasn’t a problem for us, however, the back garden is not gated and this property and neighbouring properties use the small road/pathway at the side of the property to access their parking spaces. This would be only be a problem if you had children or dogs left unsupervised. We had a wonderful stay with three generations of family to celebrate a special birthday.
