Description

Traditional, stone cottage on the outside, contemporary, spacious home on the inside!

From the moment you enter, this welcoming retreat for eight is sure to make a great first impression, and have you feeling right at home. You'll find storage and hooks in the hallway ready and waiting for your coats and boots.

On your left is the spacious living room; light, bright and inviting, this really is a wonderful space to gather with friends and family to recount the days adventures, and plan the next! Curl up and make yourself comfortable on the two three-seater sofas or the tartan easy chair with footstool, ideally positioned around the warming, cosy log burner. There's a wall-mounted Smart TV to enjoy your favourite programmes and a selection of games and books for entertainment.

The modern kitchen-diner, with island and bar stools, is well-equipped and sure to make your self-catering break in the Lakes a pleasure.

The four comfortable bedrooms are nicely furnished, with plenty of storage, and quality mattresses for a good nights sleep. There are two double bedrooms with en-suite facilities and TVs, and two twin rooms, one of which boasts a TV, and these are serviced by a sleek family bathroom. Each bedroom will be dressed in luxury crisp white bed linen and towels ready for your arrival.

Outside, there is a patio area with seating and a parking space for one car, a real bonus so close to the centre of Keswick, and there's plenty of on-street parking nearby for guests travelling in more than one car.

Great place, great location, great service 5* :)
Lots of times in Keswick in lots of different cottages and this one was in the top 3 easily and I think (memory fades!) first time with Keswick Cottages and they were awesome!

Wordsworth House has such a cosy atmosphere, it's the perfect place for families or couples alike, an incredible place to relax after a long day walking, shopping, or eating your way through the town. We pride ourselves on our quality of customer service, so to hear that we're 'awesome' is pretty awesome too! Best wishes, Keswick Cottages.

Great stay in Keswick
We had a fantastic week at this lovely house in Keswick. It was the perfect size for two families and our two dogs — plenty of space for everyone to relax and feel comfortable. The property was clean on arrival and really well equipped. The location couldn't have been better — just a short walk into town and right near the park, which was perfect for walking the dogs. The parking space was a bit tight but we never had any issues with on-street parking, always lots available right outside the property. Communication from Keswick Cottages was excellent from start to finish, and the thoughtful dog welcome treats were such a lovely touch! We wouldn't hesitate to stay here again.

Hi, Carole! We're so pleased that you enjoyed your stay! Our staff are all huge dog lovers, so we know that they're a part of the family- we hope they enjoyed their stay with us too! We pride ourselves on our customer service, and all of our properties are independently checked after they've been serviced to make sure they're perfect for your arrival. It's great to know that you were happy with the cleanliness and facilities at Wordsworth House. We look forward to welcoming you and your pups again! Best wishes, Keswick Cottages

Lovely house with plenty of room
The house was very spacious and had plenty of room for 6 and a dog. The kitchen was very well stocked, there were enough towels and the cleaning pack/welcome pack was fine. The WiFi provided was good. The parking g space was quite tight for our Seat Atteca so we parked on the street. This was fine each day as there were plenty of on street spaces outside property. The heating worked well, the property was very warm. The beds were comfy. The place was clean but I noticed a few areas that are obviously not cleaned regularly, such as the radiator in upstairs bathroom and the decorative cushions on bed had (dog ?) hair all over them. The shower tray panel in top ensuite is loose and coming away. The bedroom above kitchen could do with a mirror. The whole house is decorated nicely and has everything you need. Keswick Cottages communicated regularly and the information was clear. One thing I found off putting was that they were contacting me early on Thursday to go over our leaving instructions. I feel this is too early, our holiday was still on the go and they were already saying bye! This email should be sent later the night before...it was a short holiday, I didn't need reminding that it was over the next day. On the whole I would definitely stay here again.

Hi Pauline, Thank you or your review. Wordsworth House is located on a quiet residential street but isn't far from the town centre and a short walk to Fitz Park for the dog. The email you received is an automated email sent by our system. We did not intend to cause any upset by reminding you that it was nearly time to go home, it is just intended so guests are prepared for check out and anything they need to do. Best wishes, Keswick Cottages.

Great location & great facilities
Clean, great location and a lot of bathrooms - which is always helpful
4 Bedrooms, two with en-suite works perfectly for a friends trip. Great kitchen dining area for socialising. Very close to town, 5-10 min walk max. The park over the road is perfect for early morning dog walks. Perfect in so many ways for us. Stayed twice and will be back.
