The hosts had even decorated it for Christmas which was lovely and we received a very thoughtful welcome gift. The house was the perfect size for the 10 of us with plenty of space and every bedroom having an ensuite bathroom. It was very clean, well heated throughout and the large living room had plenty of blankets to cosy up and board games for fun family nights in. The kitchen had plenty of storage and space to cook and we enjoyed some big family mealtimes around the large dining table. Its in a great location with Keswick Town Centre and Fitz Park just around the corner. There is plenty of parking on the drive (which is so useful as the side streets are busy). The only negative was no secure outside space for the dog. It is advertised as having a garden but is actually the front drive with a stable style gate which meant the dog had to be leashed at all times when letting out for toilet breaks. Overall we had a wonderful stay at Latrigg House and would highly recommend it to any large groups heading to the Lakes. We will definitely be back! The kids are already asking for it to be our New Years tradition.

Leaving a bottle of Prosecco and biscuits was a nice welcoming gift. Very much recommended. The only thing we felt would have been extra welcome were hand towels in each bathroom.

Ideal location, off street parking for three cars. Plenty of plates and cutlery and a fully equipped kitchen, with two fridges ! The whole house is huge, with plenty of space for everyone.
