This quiet, comfortable cottage is only two minutes walk from the town centre yet backs onto the river Greta and overlooks fields towards Portinscale and the fells beyond.

The apartment is conveniently situated a stones throw from Booth’s supermarket (which has an electric car charging point) and the E-Venture shop for easy bike hire.

Keswick offers plenty of options to keep you occupied during your stay. For walkers the Keswick to Threlkeld Railway Trial which starts next to the Keswick Leisure centre is a 5 kilometre (10 kilometre there and back) walk along what was once a railway track. It offers beautiful views and is a multi-user trial suitable for pushchairs, wheelchairs and mobility scooters. If you fancy something with a little more elevation and spectacular views, Latrigg and Walla Crag can be reached from your doorstep, and you can even tick off some Wainwrights! 10 minutes out of Keswick is Whinlatter forest, which offers a huge selection of walks and outdoor activities.

Keswick itself offers lots of amenities, from shops to cafés, pubs to theatres, you will be spoilt for choice.

Excellent accommodation
A lovely cottage in an ideal location to explore Keswick and beyond. Quaver Cottage is warm and very comfortable and had all that we needed for us to feel very ‘at home' whilst there. Many thanks to the owners and Keswick Cottages for a very pleasurable booking and holiday experience.

Hi Anne, Thank you for your review. Quaver is in a central location but in a quiet residential area making it ideal for those who want a relaxing break but like to be close the hustle and bustle. Booths supermarket is just across the road, as is the bus station and Derwentwater is a short walk away. We hope you had a fantastic holiday and we hope that we can welcome you back again soon. Best wishes, Keswick Cottages.

A true home from home
Our 4th stay in Quaver Cottage and as brilliant as always. Very comfortable, well equipped and cleaned to a very high standard. The cottage is in an excellent location, very quiet yet a short walk to the town centre and all the amenities. The only downside was having to leave...

Hi Andy, Thank you for your lovely review of Quaver Cottage! We are thrilled that you find it brilliant each time you come and stay. It is set in an ideal location. Close to the town centre and shops but in a nice quiet area. We hope you welcome back again soon! Best wishes, Keswick Cottages.

Quaver Cottage Keswick
Excellent all round - can't fault it. I'd certainly stay there again. t Two minutes to supermarket/buses and town centre..... yet exceptionally quiet location. The owners use the property so it's like a home not a holiday let. Loved it.

A fabulous cottage in a wonderful location, just a couple of minutes from the centre but really quiet despite that. I felt at home immediately and it was really cosy and clean.
We have just returned from Quaver Cottage after a lovely week in Keswick - booked through Keswick Cottages. The cottage is in a great location, just behind Booths & easy walking to the town center - although close to all the amenities it it very peaceful. The cottage itself had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Lovely lounge area with dining table & 2 x Sofas, TV & Freeview & patio doors to a shared garden at the rear. The kitchen had all the usual appliances, including a welcome 'cleaning box' with washing up liquid etc. Upstairs the master bedroom was large with a comfy bed, nice, clean bathroom & then a second bedroom (2 singles) which we didn't need to use. Location wise, you cannot ask for more if you intend to make the most of Keswick. Perfect base for setting off for walks & exploring .. and then close enough to everything to get home, freshened up & out for food & drink round Keswick. Booking, communications & overall guidance from Keswick cottages was perfect .. majority via email with clear instructions & updates of the booking. Would highly recommend the cottage & Keswick Cottages.
