    “We very much enjoyed our return to No.”

    9. We have stayed in several Greta Side apartments but Oak View is our favourite. We had a short 4 night birthday stay and the bottle of wine was much appreciated on the day! The apartment has been pleasantly updated since our last visit and was spotless. We agree that the king size bed is too big for the bedroom but it is very comfortable. It didn't impact on our break at all. The compact kitchen had everything we needed. The toaster has a very short flex and it is a shame that the heat from it ...

    9. We have stayed in several Greta Side apartments but Oak View is our favourite. We had a short 4 night birthday stay and the bottle of wine was much appreciated on the day! The apartment has been pleasantly updated since our last visit and was spotless. We agree that the king size bed is too big for the bedroom but it is very comfortable. It didn't impact on our break at all. The compact kitchen had everything we needed. The toaster has a very short flex and it is a shame that the heat from it has warped the cupboard door above. I pulled it out from the wall as far as I could to avoid further damage. We ate out each day and can recommend a walk to the Coledale Inn at Braithwaite via Portinscale for lunch and a visit to the wonderful Pheasant Inn at Bassenthwaite, a short walk from the X5 (Workington) bus stop at Dabwath. We hope to return to Oak View on our next visit to Keswick.
