Minor issues mentioned include steps in the garden, feather pillows, and occasional maintenance points, but overall, guests have had highly positive experiences.
Most guests found the cottage immaculate and very clean, though one review noted a blocked shower drain and a full hoover, which were easily resolved. Overall, cleanliness is a strong point.
The cottage is praised for its quiet setting with beautiful views and proximity to Keswick town centre, being a 10-15 minute walk away. Some mention the location adds a little distance to walks, but this is generally seen as a positive.
Guests consistently mention the house is comfortable, homely, and well-furnished, with good mattresses and spacious rooms. The only minor negative was the use of feather pillows, which may not suit those with allergies.
The property is very well equipped, especially the kitchen, and offers fast WiFi, ample parking, and a lovely garden. Minor maintenance issues were noted but did not detract from the overall experience.

A lovely house, well furnished and eqipped, ideal for six people, in a great location. The terraced garden to the rear is a private, tranquil space and like the house has panoramic views across to Derwentwater and from Borrowdale in the south to Grizedale Pike to the north west. Easy walks to the lake, into town or onto the hills. Everything is great and we hope to book again!
