“Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Noble Knott.”

It was warm and comfortable. Everything worked. The location was quiet but it was less than 15 minutes walk into Keswick centre. We will probably book this place again.

“Really enjoyed our stay at Noble Knot.”

Homely and very clean. A quiet location only 10 min walk into town center. Well positioned for walks straight from the property. Didn't need to use our car once.

“Another fabulous week at Noble Knott.”

Handy location for walking into town. Always feels so homely. Very comfy, cosy and spotless.

- Julie, September 2024

Many thanks on such positive feedback and so glad you keep coming back we do try to keep standard high high Property Owner
Lynne July 2024

“It was very clean and comfortable, sunshine all week meant we had good use of garden, and it was easy to park on the road outside.”

The only things I would suggest is, a lock on bathroom door would have meant a less embarrassing week and a dustpan with a longer handled brush (less than £10 in many places) would have made things much easier, as bending down to the floor at age 80 isn't easy! Only 2 little things, which could be changed quite cheaply, would have been helpful, but overall great!

Derek June 2024

“The only comments I can make are, too few tea spoons.”

Perhaps we use more than other people but 3 is a little limiting. Also my car, Honda Civic, grounded when driving on to or off the drive way. Not much, but only used the drive way twice, rest of week just parked on the road opposite.

- Derek, June 2024

Sorry new t spoons being supplied Different cars have different ground clearanceclearanceg Property Owner

“A second visit as it is well situated in the town but in a quiet neighborhood.”

Handy for shopping, eating out, trips on the bus and walks from the door. We also prepared simple meals and there are adequate utensils etc. The central heating was used this time as the weather was very cool in the evening.

- Ken, April 2024
Jacqueline February 2024

“Simply perfect.”

Sarah January 2024

“We enjoyed a wonderful week in this cosy, comfortable and perfectly located home.”

Although it was January and -8 degrees, the bungalow was always so warm and cosy and a welcome relief after a day on the hills. Everything was impeccably clean and we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The views of the mountains from the windows were beautiful to wake up to every day and we enjoyed making snowmen in the garden! We stay in this area of the Lake District at least once a year, but have never been to Noble Knott before. We will definitely be back!

- Sarah, January 2024

Great to hear such positive comments as we do strive for excellence and the cleaner contributes greatly to this Property Owner
Linda December 2023

“Enjoyed our stay.”

Property clean and comfortable. Comfy beds and sofas, good size TV. Well equipped kitchen. Shower fine for electric. Decor and furnishings aren't the most modern but house is well maintained. Drive is steep but managed it ok. Short walk to town. We would stay again depending on price. Only problem was lack of info on where to disposit items for recycling. According to a calender in the guest info folder there is a collection for certain items but owner only instructs what to do with a wheelie bin which we assumed was general waste. We are keen to recycle and left items with note hoping the cleaner can deposit correctly avoiding more landfill.

Joanna December 2023

We enjoyed our week in noble knott even the wether was good very comfortable every thing we needed was there we tend to eat out every day so did not use heating or cooking facilities

Alison August 2023

“We had a lovely stay at Noble Knott.”

The bungalow is very comfortable and was clean on arrival. We've stayed at similar bungalows in this area of Keswick before, and thought the layout of Noble Knott was great with a dining table in the lounge area rather than in the kitchen. The kitchen was well equipped and had everything we needed, it was great to have the dishwasher too. The black out blind in the twin bedroom is brilliant to have. It's easy to walk into the centre of Keswick from here, and it's a lovely town to visit. The listing does need updating though, as there is no DVD player or books. There was a set of dominoes and some playing cards but no other games. Just if you're travelling with children it's worth knowing so you can plan what entertainment to bring for those rainy days. Luckily we had good weather so were out and about most of the time. We would definitely stay here again - many thanks!

- Alison, August 2023
Linda July 2023

“This is a clean & comfortable holiday let, but when it comes to the crunch it is a semi detached estate bungalow with no open views from the property.”

The garden is small & dishevelled. The attached neighbours start to go to bed, we assume that is what they are doing, after 11pm with loud talking & knocks. OK if you are late to bed yourself but we are not. In the kitchen the window is blown blocking what little view there is of the mountains. The dinner plates are very heavy and cannot be stood up on the drying rack safely. We do not use dishwashers. The hot water takes a long time to come through thus wasting the cold run off. The large shower is great & the sofas comfy. Keswick & it's surrounding area are amazing & this bungalow is well situated to take full advantage of everything on offer. We had an immensely enjoyable holiday, even to taking advantage of the mixed weather. Please thank the owners for the use of this accommodation.

- Linda, July 2023

Thank you for your review. I have no control over level of noise from neighbours and this apartment is in one of the quietest areas of Keswick. Your comments re plates have been noted and lighter weight ones are now being installed. The garden is due to be tidied next week and we have ordered replacement glass for the kitchen window. I am glad you enjoyed your stay and I appreciate your comments which help to ensure standards kept up. Property Owner
Jenifer June 2023

“Lovely to have a change of bedding/towels during the middle weekend.”

Met Lorraine, the housekeeper, who was really lovely, checked that everything was working and if there was anything we needed. The house was clean, comfortable and well equipped. Having use of the garage to store the bike was great. We would definitely use again

- Jenifer, June 2023
Christina June 2023

“We had a lovely week in Noble Knott, property was in such a brilliant location.”

Clean and comfortable, very well equipped for cooking too ! No complaints, would definitely stay again if returning to Keswick (we tend to move around the Lake District

“Clean and comfortable bungalow in a quiet location yet only 15 minutes walk from the centre of Keswick for shops and buses.”

A small garden to sit in with a coffee after a day Walking. Kitchen well equipped for preparing simple meals and a decent sized fridge freezer.

- Ken, April 2023
Pam November 2022

“This was a very clean, warm and well equipped property.”

The small problem we encountered at the beginning was dealt with quickly and effectively by the electrician. The decor was tastefully done and the kitchen equipped with everything needed for a self catering stay. The beds were extremely comfortable and the central heating easy to control. We had a wonderfully relaxing week (when we were not out on the fells) and wouldn't hesitate to reccommend this property to others.

- Pam, November 2022
Tracy October 2022

“A warm, clean ,well equipped bungalow.”

An easy flat 10 min walk to Keswick town centre, the only issue we had was parking on the very very steep drive,it scraped the underside of the car. So we just parked on the road which wasn't a problem ,its a quiet cul de sac. Would def return to this property ,as long as the price does not become silly.

- Tracy, October 2022
Chris September 2022

“The property was exactly as described, with clear instructions to enable the use of equipment and the undertaking of household tasks.”

Maps & tourist information was available which proved extremely useful. The location was ideal for exploring the Lakes and overall was great value for the money and we will recommend it to all our friends.

- Chris, September 2022
Jennifer September 2022

“Had a fabulous week at Noble Knott.”

The property is very near the centre of Keswick. It is very clean and had everything we needed. It also had the most comfortable beds so after a busy day we could watch the large screen television then have a good nights sleep. Also had the chance to sit in the garden. Just a lovely property. Would definitely recommend.

“This is one of the best properties we’ve booked.”

Absolutely spotless and so quiet. Amazingly well equipped. This was a last minute booking so didn’t have the choice of properties I would normally have so we were very pleasantly surprised.

- Ruth, August 2022
Christine August 2022

“It would have been good to have the welcome pack left on a table as we only found this on the last day in a drawer.”

No details about recycling or rubbish collection Larger towels would have been appreciated Altogether a pleasant stay very convenient for walking etc.

“The bungalow was well equipped and cosy.”

Garden area was a sun trap and nature was great to view ie. Young fledglings in garden. Very peaceful and quiet location. Within ten minute walking distance from Keswick town centre. Overall a lovely place to stay and we Had a lovely time

- June, May 2022
Julie May 2022

“Very enjoyable stay.”

Clean and comfortable. Garage is a bonus for storing bikes. Great views. Perfect for explring Keswick without the car. A very minor criticism would be not enough kitchen cupboard space for food and maybe a cafetiere but these are not huge issues.

- Julie, May 2022

Many thanks for your feedback. Sorry about cafetiere missing as one is supplied. I will check with cleaner as perhaps it has been removed. Property Owner
Diane April 2022

“Had a lovely stay at Noble Knott, it's very comfortable, cosy and welcoming, also very well equipped and had everything we needed.”

It is a little rough around the edges in some places but I think that could be due to the age of the property but all in all a lovely place to stay and I would not hesitate to stay there again in fact we are thinking of re booking in the Autumn.

The property

Noble Knott is a lovely semi-detached bungalow situated in the heart of Keswick, a popular Lake District tourist destination.

Noble Knott is a tranquil starting point for all of your Lakes excursions, ideal for groups of friends or family looking for a much-needed respite from everyday life.

In the living room, you'll find a warming electric fireplace and sofas to sink into, as well as a television with Freeview , perfect for snuggling up in front of after a day of exploring the Fells.

Move through to the well-appointed kitchen, which has been fitted with wooden cabinets and a variety of appliances, such as an electric oven, a gas hob with microwave, a fridge/freezer, and a handy washing machine for your convenience.

During the warmer months, you can dine indoors at the dining table for four or, if you prefer, outside in the lovely garden on the patio furniture.

With a heated towel rail and an attractively tiled shower, a well-appointed bathroom awaits to help you freshen up at the end of the day.

The twin bedroom is located across the hall, while the second and final bedroom is a double, both of which have beautiful views of the surrounding greenery.

Keswick town centre is just a short walk away, and the town's Market Square is home to an ever-changing array of independent shops, restaurants, and pubs, not to mention a weekly farmers' market held there twice a week.

Ghyll scrambling, kayaking, and canoeing are just some of the watersports that can be enjoyed on the nearby Derwentwater Lake, which is just a short distance away from the town of Keswick.

Derwent Pencil Museum tells the story of how the discovery of black lead in the area sparked a boom in the town's pencil-making industry, while Puzzling Place is a strange and fascinating place full of optical illusions. Near to Keswick are two of the Lake District's best and largest peaks: Skiddaw and Blencathra, both of which can be tackled by hikers who will be rewarded with breathtaking views from the summit.

Newlands Valley is located between Braithwaite and Buttermere, and Bassenthwaite Lake is just a short drive away.

For a memorable Lake District getaway, choose Noble Knott.
