Candy Nook
For 3 men on a walking trip it was just the job. Ideally situated for bars, shops etc. And plenty of hiking opportunities without having to drive too far. However there is room for improvement. The instructions for getting into the property are non existent - as far as I could tell. After much walking up and down Station Street looking for number 20a and then finding a property called Grandy Nook, which we assumed must be the right place but with a typo, I gave up and phoned Keswick Cottages where I had to leave a message as it was past 5.30. To their credit I was called back within 2 minutes and given instructions over the phone - the property is accessed around the back from Southey Street - not Station Street. I'm sure we would have found it eventually but not a great start to our weekend all the same. The 2nd floor shower has a tendency to go hot and cold and is not very powerful, and the cold tap in the bath of the first floor bathroom does not work. The place does have a slightly tired look to it as well and could do with a lick of paint. Other than that it was clean and did the job for us 3 guys.

Hi, Michael! Thank you for taking the time to share such detailed and balanced feedback following your stay at Cramdy Nook. We’re pleased to hear the property worked well overall as a base for your walking trip and that you found it clean, well located, and suited to your needs. Keswick really is ideal for combining great hikes with easy access to shops and pubs. We’re very sorry to hear about the difficulty you experienced finding the property on arrival. Full access details are provided in the guest guide, including directions from Southey Street, but we appreciate that in practice this wasn’t as clear as it should have been and that it made for a frustrating start to your stay. We’re glad our team was able to respond quickly and get you sorted, but your feedback has been noted as a reminder to keep reviewing how clearly this information is communicated. Thank you also for highlighting the issues with the showers and taps, as well as your comments about the general décor. These have all been passed on to be investigated and addressed where needed — feedback like this is very important in helping us maintain standards. We appreciate your honest comments and are glad that, despite these points, the property still did the job for your trip. Best wishes, Keswick Cottages

Great views in central Keswick
Lovely, well appointed property in central Keswick with easy access to the town centre. Since the property is split over three levels there are plenty of stairs, but if you don't mind that the views are great.

Hi David, Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts about Crandy Nook. We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed the property and found its central Keswick location so convenient for exploring the town. You’re right about the stairs, but we’re glad the lovely views made it worthwhile. It’s wonderful to know that the layout and features of the property suited your stay. Thanks again for choosing to stay with us and for taking the time to leave a review. Best wishes, Keswick Cottages

Comfortable stay at Crandy Nook again!
Second time at the property and every bit as good as the first. Excellent area for taking off boots and walking gear, the property is comfortable, well equipped and furnished to a high standard. A central location accessed from the rear with free parking (note this is a 2 minute walk but we were able to unload/load on our arrival/departure outside). Beds were great, slept so well! Having a bathroom per 2 bedrooms on same floor as them is a plus. The only negatives are the flights of stairs, which could be an issue for some, and a general smell of food from the cafe below which permeated to the upper floor. Also leaving one toilet roll per bathroom is stingy for a week's stay. None of this would prevent us staying again though as it is a lovely property or booking with Keswick Cottages as I always do.

Hi Paul, Thank you for review. The central location of Crandy Nook make it perfect for people who are exploring the area. It is a very short walk in to the town centre and there are plenty of walks you can do right from the doorstep. The views from the top floor of the surrounding fells provide great inspiration for the next day's activities. Any starter provisions are provided to make your arrival easier in case you haven't had time to pop to the shops. We hope you had a fantastic stay and we look forward to welcoming you back in the future. Best wishes, Keswick Cottages.

Crandy Nook was great and perfect for hillwalking with plenty of room for drying gear. Facilities were good, it was comfortable. There were two bedrooms on two floors with a bathroom plus separate shower which suited the four of us well. Location is superb - right in the centre of Keswick! Our only issue was finding the apartment, but Keswick Cottages were easily contacted by phone to help us and assured us they’d update the arrival information to make things clearer. So can definitely recommend this property and would happily stay there again.
Amazing views from the top floor, very well presented and the hosts were really responsive with sorting a couple of things
We stayed in one of Keswick Cottages' properties in the middle of Keswick. The place was exactly as described, very centrally located, well furnished and clean. Communications before and afterwards with the company all worked well. The instructions on entry were clear and everything inside worked.
