Just perfect
Lovely apartment, with everything you could need provided, in the most perfect location with fantastic views. Just a few minutes walk to shops, lake, pubs and a lovely park just across the road. Instructions and guide sent by text/email from the host gave all the information needed. We really enjoyed our stay and would love to stay again in the future.

Fantastic location!
We’ve just got back from our stay at Skiddaw view and we’re very impressed. The apartment is perfectly located in the centre of Keswick, we didn’t need to use the car at all over our long weekend which was a blessing! The apartment was perfect for myself, my partner and our dog and had everything we needed for our stay, with fantastic views. Lots of bars, restaurants and cafes nearby and a good starting point for walks of all abilities. I would particularly recommend Jaspers coffee house down the road for breakfast!
Thank you for a lovely stay!
