“Great property, look forward to returning soon.”

- Paul, April 2022

“High Corner is a perfectly situated cottage in the very centre of Keswick, with a small raised terrace at the front to sit with a morning coffee or a glass of wine in the evenings and enjoy looking at the beautiful scenery and watching the busy passage of tourists walking to and from Lake Derwentwater.”

Well furnished and equipped and no car necessary- shops, walks, market, pubs, restaurants and takeaways are a short stroll away. Free car parking is provided a few minutes walk away, but we barely used our car the whole week. Immaculately clean, very comfy beds, a smart tv, and even a small cinema just around the corner. Well recommended!

“There was a small problem with a stuck window on the day of arrival which the owner was able to get fixed before bedtime, which was great.”

The last time we stayed the sofas were a little uncomfortable but those had been replaced by much more comfortable furniture. It is an excellent location, with excellent facilities and beautifully presented. We would be happy to come back here again..

“Wonderful cottage in a great location, right in the heart of the town.”

It was a well equipped house. Parking wasn't a problem, as we always managed to find a space near the owners' house. Best wishes Darrell and Anna

“The location is excellent for access to the fells and to the town itself ,however it’s location right next door to the Wainwright pub and the main bedroom window opening into the small alleyway between means it it very noisy at night and early morning when they have deliveries.”

The patio catches the late sun but nowhere else to sit outside if it’s raining- an outdoor umbrella would be good. The back wall that you face whilst eating is black with mould and needs attention, I appreciate it may not belong to the owners. We will definitely use Heart of the Lakes again but will not return to this property Regards

“Great location, very lucky with the weather all week.”

Will be back next year.

“Great location for the town and surrounding walks.”

Nice to have the front patio where you can sit out and admire the views and passing pedestrians below whilst enjoying a nice drink after a day on the fells. The addition of being able to park outside the owners house guarantees parking as Keswick is always busy. There was a small issue of the waste bin not being collected (again) but this was swiftly dealt with by the owner.

“Great location.”

Only downside is the parking. Not the owners fault I know and not the end of the world in the big scheme of things. The sooner the Council see sense and reverse the decision the better. Other than that this place is ideal for all our needs in Keswick and has been a regular place to stay for the last 5-6 years.

“This property is perfect for us to relax in.”

The location is ideal for a walk around the lake and town and the car park is very close when we decide to go further afield. We have used it 3 times and I know we will again.
