Stayed here a couple of times now, airy apartment with added bonus of a parking space. Love this place, just a couple of things that need attention. Electric shower keeps tripping due to low water pressure, and toilet in other bathroom does not flush properly. Beds are excellent, sofas are comfy, lovely place to stay.

Fabulous week at Cumberland Place, Keswick. The accommodation is very spacious, homely and comfortable, with two spacious bedrooms with super comfortable beds and two very large bathrooms, one en-suite, you couldn’t ask for more. The kitchen is very well equipped with everything you need for a self catering holiday.The location in the centre of Keswick means that everything is just a short stroll away, the onsite parking means if you don’t want to drive, you don’t have too. The details state parking is suitable for one large car or two small, we managed to park a Volvo estate and a Nissan Note in no problem.We had amazing weather which meant the roof terrace was a brilliant bonus and a little sun trap from first thing in the morning to early evening.I could find no fault with this apartment and would highly recommend to anyone looking for a place in Keswick to give it a try, you will not be disappointed.
