Excellent house, lovely picture windows the views were amazing, everything you could want fir a week away. Would have preferred bath sheets instead of bath towels but this is a miner issue.

Beautiful comfortable house with lovely views, ample parking & fast WiFi. The most comfortable & homely (& modern) house we’ve stayed in, in Keswick. Location on edge of town - perfectly good for us but did add on a mile or so to most of our walks! But still only 10-15 mins walk to all of Keswick’s amenities. Can’t fault anything, would be lovely to use the garden in the summer! Think it’s quite pricey especially when looking at prices for summer months. Was at the top of the amount we’d be prepared to pay for Feb half term but can understand why.
