Reviews

Beautiful Cottage
It is a beautiful cottage and very well equipped. There were some lovely additional touches of a welcome pack and dog treats. Communication was good and the location is quiet even in the peak holiday period. It is very close to shops, cafes and the park. Throughly enjoyed the stay and have booked again for next year.
Highly recommended
We had a lovely week at Byways. The cottage was spotlessly clean, very comfortable and provided everything that we needed during our stay. We would highly recommend Byways and would be very happy to stay there again in the future.
Great Stay
We have stayed in Byways before and found improvements have been made in a number of areas, including the small garden which was much easier to use as a place to sit and relax without overgrown foliage. Most areas of the house seemed brighter and more comfortable. Not to mention a good night sleep.

Thank you so much for your lovely review and for choosing to stay at Byways again. It is always great to hear from returning guests, especially as the new owners of Byways have been making some fantastic upgrades and improvements at the cottage recently to further enhance the guest experience, so I have no doubt that they will be delighted to read your feedback. We're pleased that the weather was kind during your visit allowing an opportunity to enjoy a peaceful hour or two with a cuppa in the pretty patio area. We hope to welcome you back to Byways again soon for another relaxing stay. Best wishes, Keswick Cottages
