Guests say
Riverbank Cottage in Keswick is highly praised for its fantastic location, particularly for dog owners, with easy access to the park and town centre. Guests appreciate the well-equipped property, cleanliness, and the convenience of on-site parking, though space may be tight for larger vehicles. The cottage's proximity to local attractions and its cosy atmosphere, including a log burning stove, contribute to a comfortable stay. Overall, guests are enthusiastic about returning and recommend the cottage for its great value and amenities.
The cottage is consistently described as clean, with no negative comments on cleanliness, indicating a high standard of upkeep.
The location is repeatedly highlighted as ideal, with its proximity to the town centre, park, and local attractions, making it a standout feature of the property.
Guests find the bedrooms comfortable and the living space cosy, although one mention of uncomfortable leather settees suggests a slight room for improvement in seating comfort.
The property is well-equipped with necessary appliances and furnishings. However, the absence of a bike store and the mention of tricky parking for larger vehicles suggest some areas could be enhanced.
While guests are generally pleased with the cottage, there are no specific mentions of gifts or extra thoughtful touches provided by the hosts, so it is not possible to assess this category.

We enjoyed our stay at Riverside. It was ideal for our stay with our border collie. The only slight down side was the uncomfortable leather settees. However the living room was very cosy with the log burning stove and the bed was extremely comfortable. We slept really well after days out in and around beautiful festive Keswick.

Well equipped property in a fantastic location (particularly for dog owners), with access to the park less than a minute away.On site parking for a medium sized cat (Renault Kadjar). Great value for money.
