Mid week stay
We have stayed at Birchgate many times over the years. On our last visit the property needed updating and redecoration. This has been carried out to a high standard and as a result we were extremely impressed and as a family had an excellent time. As usual excellent service from Keswick Cottages and we will definitely be back.

Lovely little cottage in a perfect location! Everything the cottage was perfect and in a super location!
We've been coming to this cottage for over 10 years. It still ticks all the boxes. There's only two of us and we like to spread out so if you're like us you may feel a little cramped if there are four of you. My all-time favourite feature is that you have somewhere to park the car. If ever you've tried to do that in peak season in Keswick you'll understand why that is so good. My second favourite is that the cottage is tucked away in the town but within easy walking of all other parts, yet is is delightfully quiet.
Birchgate is a delightful cottage. It has an excellent well equipped kitchen, warm and cosy living room, two excellent sized bedrooms and a large bathroom. There is outside seating front and back and a car parking space. It is within an easy walk of Fitz Park, the old railway walk and the Town centre. The lake is not far away and there is a nearby convenience store. It in in a quiet area, we had a great week here and didn’t want to leave. A big shout out to the cleaner/cleaners, the cottage was absolutely spotless. We loved our week in this super cottage. Keswick Cottages who we booked through are an excellent company to deal with, with prompt friendly service. There isn’t anything about this cottage and booking agent we would change and really hope we will go back one day.
