Lovely, spacious, well equipped, clean house. We felt at home the minute we walked in. Only a 5 minute walk into town and far enough down the street not to be bothered by passers by. The house even has its own parking spot which is rare in Keswick. My only issue is the faff of collecting and returning the key from a different location (only 5 minutes walk, though). We will definitely stay again.

A lovely house very close to centre of Keswick and many walks close by.The property was very comfortable, spacious and homely. The kitchen was in need of updating but everything was there that you needed for example; plenty of crockery, cutlery etc. large fridge freezer and an air fryer! It was very clean too. A lot of thought for guest amenities and facilities has gone into this property, and we would definitely recommend staying in Robinson. We hope to return soon! Thank you to our host.
