Guests say

Anne's Cottage in Keswick is highly praised for its superb location, cleanliness, and comfort. Guests appreciate the well-equipped kitchen, lovely garden, and the property's proximity to town and nature. The cottage is described as cosy and welcoming, making it a favoured choice for repeat visits.

Guests consistently note the cottage's cleanliness, with many reviews highlighting its well-maintained state. One mention of cups needing a wash slightly impacts the score.

The location is repeatedly commended for being quiet yet conveniently close to the town centre and park, with easy access to local attractions and walks.

The cottage is frequently described as comfortable and cosy, with comfortable beds and a relaxing garden. A few guests felt that space might be tight for four people, which slightly affects the score.

Facilities are generally well-regarded, especially the well-stocked kitchen. However, some guests struggled with the combination oven/microwave, and there were suggestions for minor additions like oven gloves and a hand towel in the kitchen.

Many guests mention the thoughtfulness of the cottage's amenities, including a welcome bottle of wine. It's important to note that such gifts are a kind gesture and may not be guaranteed for every stay.

About this property

Positioned at the centre of excitement within the bustling town of Keswick, Annes Cottage is an arresting mid-terrace cottage offering a fantastic base from which to explore the magnificent landscapes of the Lake District National Park. Adorned with charming interiors throughout, this heart-warming abode is perfectly suited to family and friends alike.

Leave your walking boots by the door as you return from an action-packed adventure exploring the fells, cosying up on the sumptuous sofas that decorate the beautiful living/dining room. Cross on over to the white galley kitchen with stunning granite worktops and prepare many delicious meals throughout your stay. Climb the staircase up to the first floor and discover a sophisticated family bathroom with wall-to-floor tiling, as well as a light and airy king-size and a quaint twin just a few steps away.

Head outside to the enclosed rear garden and delight in dinner alfresco at the pretty picnic table whilst cracking open a chilled bottle of bubbly and toasting to another memorable day exploring the lakes.

Wander into the heart of Keswick and discover many exciting attractions such as the Derwent Pencil Museum, Keswick Museum and a Puzzling Place, as well as Friars Crag, Lake District Paddle Boarding and Keswick Adventure centre resting on the banks of Derwentwater. Avid walkers and outdoor enthusiasts will relish in a day of hiking through Skiddaw and Helvellyn, whilst little adventurers will love an afternoon in Whinlatter Forest Park at Go Ape. See the cascading waters of Aira Force Waterfall and visit the imposing 14th-century stately home of Dalemain Mansion and Historic Gardens. See the life and works of William Wordsworth at the National Trust owned Wordsworth House, or enjoy an animal encounter like never before at the Lake District Wildlife Park. Stop off at the incredible glacier boulder of Bowder Stone, or head to Bowness-on-Windermere for a tour of The World of Beatrix Potter Attraction and the National Trust owned Wrap Castle. Grab dinner and drinks in the neighbouring town of Keswick, or pick up ingredients from the local supermarket ahead of a quiet evening indoors. Spend quality time with loved ones on an escape to Annes Cottage.

Resting in the North of the Lake District, Keswick is a popular town filled with bustling stores, quintessential pubs, and a selection of restaurants, making this an excellent choice for any self-catering stay. Resting on the banks of Derwentwater, visitors will find an abundance of attractions and activities right on their doorstep. Bassenthwaite and Threlkeld sit just a stone's throw away, and the towns of Ambleside and Bowness-on-Windermere are well-worth a visit during your stay.

    Out the back gate onto a path along side the river which led to our surprise into a lovely park. Walking along side of it we soon found it easy to be in Keswick. The cottage has obviously had a lot of thought and love put into it to make it as nice as it is. Nothing has been skimped, the kitchen in particular had everything and more one would expect, all of high quality. Unfortunately we could not get the knack of using the electric hob and used it only once and ate out. Thank you for a lovely holiday , The scenery is so dramatically beautifully. Driving elsewhere will never be the same again. John & Mandy

    As we cook when we're away we found this a huge bonus. The fridge is also a decent size (again, not always the case). The cottage is quiet, yet close to town and ideally suited to explore Keswick and the surrounding area.
