Description

The Ridgeway is a beautiful Victorian property, with many personal touches to create a ’home from home’ feel and ideal for those wishing to be close to all local amenities but just out of the way of traffic and crowds.

The fully enclosed south facing patio has wonderful views to the fells for perfect al fresco dining. Private parking is allocated opposite for one car.

The large, bright lounge with high ceilings on the first floor has a fabulous bay window looking out over Keswick to Catbells and the fells beyond. There are two large sofas and an open fire for cosy winter nights, with dining table in the picture postcard bay window. There is a Smart TV, DVD, games console, and plenty of Lakeland guides, books and games.

The twin bedroom with solid oak furniture (chest of drawers, wardrobe and bedside tables) is also on the first floor with lovely views towards Latrigg. This room can be converted to a King-size bed upon request.

The first floor bathroom is fully tiled and has a double ended bath, separate shower cubicle, towel rail and wash hand basin. There is a separate WC on this floor.

On the ground floor there is a bright double bedroom with a leather chair positioned in the bay window overlooking the patio/garden. There is a double bed, with plenty of storage, a flat screen TV/DVD, dressing table and lovely high ceilings. Both bedrooms are dressed with luxury linens and fresh white fluffy towels.

The very modern kitchen is also on the ground floor with fitted units, granite worktops, built in electric oven and gas hob, microwave, dishwasher, fridge, freezer, washing machine, DAB radio and breakfast bar, with well stocked cupboards with everything you would need on a self-catering holiday.

There is a sizeable utility room at the back of the apartment for walking gear and bikes, with a tumble dryer and providing a useful back door with rear access to the street.

Easter in Ridgeway
Had a great 4 night stay in Ridgeway with the pup; great location, ideal access into the town centre. Ideal facilities for those with a dog, the back door to the property gives access directly to a spacious boot room, perfect for bringing in wet dogs. Will definitely rebook this property.

Thank you so much for your review of The Ridgeway! We're so happy you had a great time staying at The Ridgeway and you found the location great being in central Keswick. We're so pleased to know you found the back door to the boot room ideal for drying your wet dog and taking off those mucky boots. We hope you had a great time exploring Keswick and we can't wait to welcome you back when you book The Ridgeway again! Best Wishes, Keswick Cottages

Kewisk - Smart house with everything you need, steps away from the Centre and Fitz Park
We were a family of 4 adults plus a well behaved dog. The house suited us perfectly. It is clean, smart, pleasant, comfortable beds and sofas. Enjoyed cooking in the modern kitchen. Upstairs bath/shower room is super with a 2nd bathroom downstairs. The boot/bike/dog drying/washing machine room is a great addition and helps keep everything clean and tidy. Scenic views from the lounge window. It is a minute's walk away from the centre, with all the shops, restaurants etc, yet tucked away on a quiet cul de sac with the added bonus of a reserved parking spot. A walk in opposite direction for 2 minutes, across the river foortbridge and we were in the lovely large Fitz Park, which is a brilliant park, great for walking a dog or going to the children's play area. On our next trip to Keswick we will certainly be seeking this house out again.

Thank you so much for your review of The Ridgeway! We are so happy the house suited you perfectly and you found it clean, pleasant, smart and that the beds were comfortable. We're so pleased you enjoyed cooking in the kitchen and that you the two bathrooms super. The back room is a great addition to the house because it means you don't have to drag all that muck into the house. It is situated in the centre of Keswick so it is only a short walk to the town centre. The reserved parking place is a great addition because you don't have to worry about parking, especially when Keswick gets busy. We're so glad you enjoyed exploring Fitz Park, we hope your children enjoyed the play area and your dog enjoyed exploring the park too. We hope you had a wonderful time and we can't wait to welcome you back again! Best Wishes, Keswick Cottages

Lovely place
Great place. Comfy, spacious, great location, clean and everything you need for a stay away. Only negative was that the property above it had very noisy floorboards, so we were woken up at 6am most mornings.

Thank you so much for your review of The Ridgeway! We're so happy you found it spacious, comfy clean and in a great location being just around from the main street. We're so glad you found it had everything you needed whilst on your self catering holiday. We hope you had a wonderful time and we hope to welcome you back to Keswick again! Best Wishes, Keswick Cottages

Fabulous position, spotlessly clean property, amazing views from the lounge over to Catbells and Causey Pike Spent the week going out walking, and plenty of apres walk drinks at local pubs. Fab meal at The Pheasant, lamb Henry was particularly good. Didn’t need to get in the car at all!

This is the second time we have booked accommodation in Keswick through Keswick Cottages, and once again, their service has been spot on from start to finish. And The Ridgeway proved to suit us perfectly in every respect, exactly what we were looking for. Many thanks - we'll be back. Edward
