Overview

Sam’s Cottage, named after the property owner's 16 year old nephew who suffers from cerebral palsy and has limited accessibility, is Keswick’s first and only fully accessible holiday let. Set back in a quiet courtyard, this two bedroom bungalow sleeps 2-3 people and is ideally positioned for all the town centre has to offer, complete with one allocated parking space. There is a cinema, shops, bars and restaurants all within 100 meters of the front door. The property is newly constructed and furnished to a high standard. Purposely built with Sam in mind can be a real haven for those with disabilities to enjoy their independence while visiting this beautiful Lakeland town.

Keswick Cottages , May 2025

5 nights in Sam's cottage Keswick
We stayed in Sam's cottage for 5 nights in May 2025. Location was fantastic, 2 minute walk from the main square in Keswick Cafe's and shops less than a minutes walk away. Lovely park 5 ,minutes walk away The cottage is very spacious and is lovely and bright , large lounge/diner/kitchen . Large double bedroom, smaller but perfect size single room both with plenty storage & really nice bed linen Large accessible bathroom with wet room style shower, small shower seat in the shower area. We would definitely stay here again if we looked to visit the Lakes Staff at Keswick Cottages were extremely helpful Only negative was the access to the parking outside the cottage , the access ally is quite narrow BUT Keswick cottages sorted a parking place out for nearby.
Great cottage but wheelchair users will need assistance!
Sam cottage is a hidden gem in the middle of Keswick. Considering its location it is really quite. The space is perfect for a small family, I was in Keswick working but I brought my husband and son on a mini break! There is plenty of circulation space for wheelchair users and the kitchen is set up really well. The only issue we had was getting our van close enough to pack and unpack, I drive a WAV and my husband and son had to unpack the van and walk down the street multiple times, had I travelled on my own it would have been impossible for me to get parked close enough and empty the van. We were aware of the parking issue before we booked but in practice it was a bigger issue than expected. We also had people who worked in the local take aways parking at will in the spaces which were for the cottages! Over all it is a fab little place but you will need to go with assistance if you are in a larger vehicle.

Self-catering. Location in town excellent. Access passage narrow for large 4x4.
Second time we have stayed at this property. My dad is a wheelchair user and the whole property is designed with a wheelchair user in mind without making it overly obvious. Great location, parking, washing machine and welcome pack. We'll definitely be booking for a 3rd time!
Very warm and comfortable. All the facilities you would need. Hosts were very quick to fix any issues.
