    “This property could be amazing.”

    It’s in an ideal central location. It’s on a noisy busy road, but we knew that when we booked. What we didn’t expect was how dirty, smelly and unkempt the property was. It’s very neglected. There is mould and damp in the upstairs bedrooms and shower rooms. So much so in bedroom 3, we were unable to use it. The smell was so strong. We had what we were told are carpet beetles in bedroom 2 upstairs. The whole place needs cleaned and painted. On the info it says parking for 3 cars. However ...

    It’s in an ideal central location. It’s on a noisy busy road, but we knew that when we booked. What we didn’t expect was how dirty, smelly and unkempt the property was. It’s very neglected. There is mould and damp in the upstairs bedrooms and shower rooms. So much so in bedroom 3, we were unable to use it. The smell was so strong. We had what we were told are carpet beetles in bedroom 2 upstairs. The whole place needs cleaned and painted. On the info it says parking for 3 cars. However when we arrived, one of the spaces was taken. We were told by neighbours it was the owners car. Meaning we had to park in a pay carpark about an 8 minute walk away (not ideal) not what we were sold. The car wasn’t moved until day 4 of our 7 night stay. The hot tub area was a joke. It was at the front door with a fence around it. No space out there at all. Plus being in the front, it was busy with all of the other businesses on the same area of concrete. So didn’t feel private or appropriate. It was advertised as having a bathroom downstairs. It was actually a further shower rooms. I could go on. This is the first negative review I’ve ever posted, but apart from the location there are very few positives.

About the location

KESWICK

Bassenthwaite 7 miles, Ullswater 16.6 miles; Cockermouth 13 miles.

The popular town of Keswick is the holiday centre of the North of the Lake District and has plenty to offer the visitor at any time of year. The town boasts numerous shops and restaurants to suit all tastes, as well as offering miniature golf, excellent parks, the famous Theatre by the Lake, a charming cinema, the Pencil Museum, a climbing wall, fishing and great mountain biking opportunities, whilst the beautiful lake of Derwentwater at the head of the stunning Borrowdale Valley is only a few minutes walk from the town centre. Nearby, between Braithwaite and Buttermere is the beautiful Newlands Valley, while picturesque Bassenthwaite Lake is well worth a visit. From a gentle countryside ramble to a challenging hike up Skiddaw or the famous Catbells, there really is something for everyone. Visit Castlerigg Stone Circle, the Jennings Brewery and Mirehouse, a grand house and gardens on the shores of the Bassenthwaite Lake, or take a fabulous boat trip around Derwentwater. With plenty of attractions for the kids, lovely parks and the nearby Lake District Wildlife Park this is a great Lakeland destination whatever the time of year.
