Nice cottage with free parking essential in Keswick. Toilet flush not working but I worked around it and guess it will be fixed by now.

Excellent location for a visit to Keswick and the lake District. Very well presented accommodation with parking. Easy walk to Derwent water and town facilities

Great Location

Only a two minute walk to center of Keswick. Has free permit parking in the church car park at the rear of the property. Combi boiler so heating and hot water when you want it and also has an electric shower. There is a rear courtyard but the back door was unusable as it was falling to bits so didn't use it. The cottage could do with some TLC but this is reflected in the price. My 2nd stay here and will stop again once the back door has been replaced.

Basic

This apartment is in a brilliant location and has got a lot of potential but not for us it needs a lot of T L C and a good deep clean they did send a cleaner but it should have been done before we arrived the washing machine is very noisy when on spin and the central heating boiler kept kneading topped up I'm not going to say to much as the owner was lovely it's a budget apartment and I would gladly go back if it was upgraded and I would be willing to pay a lot more

A real 'home from home'.

I was delighted by the cottage, it was very comfortable and had everything that I needed. One comment however relates to your email about leaving the cottage. I may be unusual but I do not have a smart phone and I did not take my lap-top, I have only seen that message this evening on my return home. I hope that I managed to fulfil your wishes. I did not put the rubbish out because I could not open the back door, I did however, leave it bagged up by the door.

Great location

This downstairs apartment is in a great location for central Keswick being about a 2 minute walk for the centre. There is on street parking on a first come first served basis but is not needed as there is a car permit for one car in the church car park behind the apartment which can be accessed easily from the backdoor. The apartment is a little dated but I feel this is reflected in the price. There is also a small gated courtyard at the rear which the dog can't escape from. This has a small table and chairs and gets full sun from early afternoon until sunset. Kitchen is well equipped and has the basics already there like salt, pepper, dish washing materials, etc. The bathroom has bath and electric shower so have choice of either. Overall, I would stop here again and thoroughly enjoyed my stay.

Ground floor flat in an excellent location

The flat is in an excellent location in Keswick with a very convenient car parking space available to use on the Methodist Church car park. The keys were easy to access from the key box next to the front door. We were able to reverse our car up to the back gate to unload and load our car on leaving which was helpful. All kitchen appliances in working order and easy to work shower. Limited headroom in the shower for my 6' 3 husband. Hand soap, washing up liquid and condiments provided. Bedding and towels provided. The bed was comfortable. The flat is in need of urgent external repairs, clearing of gutters, repairs to the back door, the rear gate and painting. The front garden is overgrown. The flat requires a thorough deep clean, which would have greatly enhance our stay. If people are looking for budget accommodation in central Keswick and are happy to put up with the limitations then I would recommend.

Great location, lacks information to make stay easy and enjoyable

This is the first time I’ve given less than five stars to a host. This property could be great if the host would only send a pre-arrival text describing the tricks to opening the three locks to get into the lodging and then have a welcome packet identifying the Wi-Fi information and describing how to work the quirkier aspects of the property. This would avoid the necessity of contacting the owner every time a new difficulty arose. For us, that meant 3 or 4 text exchanges. The owner did respond in a timely manner to our questions and eventually offered to come over and show us how everything worked. By that time, we were so frustrated with spending time, figuring out the house instead of hiking that we just got on with our holiday as best we could. We did learn how to work the shower but if, when, and for how long hot water will come out of the taps remains of mystery to us.If our problems are something that wouldn’t bother you, the location of the lodgings makes up for a lot. There is easy access to town, walking trails, museums, restaurants and grocery stores. The firm beds are very comfortable, the kitchen is reasonably stocked for cooking utensils and cookware, and the heat works well. Be aware that you should bring your own oil, spices, coffee and laundry detergent. Not a problem for UK residents but tough on international travelers.
