Everyone complimented me on my choice of accommodation, hot tub was used every day after a hard days walking, and kitchen was loaded with high tech appliances. Location great, parking no problem, highly recommended.
Catherine
Couldnât get a better location and everything was comfortable. Very responsive and welcoming host. Thank you!
Chris
Bedrooms were all lovely, beds very comfortable, bathrooms clean - fabulous to have an en-suite in 7 out of 8 rooms. Location of house - walkable to good pubs/restaurants and centre of Keswick. For less mobile people Ashness taxis provide a great service at very reasonable price. Their drivers were helpful, flexible and very kind and friendly. We felt this house was pretty much perfect for our group and we didnât have anything negative to say about it.
