Perfect
The house is comfortable and well equipped. Central Keswick but with its own parking space and a rural feel from the garden. We'd happily return.

Hi, Richard! Thank you so much for your lovely review of Quaver Cottage! This cottage has an ideal location, especially for self-catering, being so close to Keswick's two supermarkets, Booths and Co-Op. Elliot Park is a very quiet, peaceful area of town, with plenty of parking, including Quaver's own allocated space. It'd be lovely to welcome you again. You know where to find us whenever you're ready for visit two! Best wishes, Keswick Cottages

A lovely place to stay
Another visit to Quaver Cottage - lost count of the times we've been here. Beautifully clean as usual. A real home from home. Love Keswick although even wetter than usual! Thank you to the owners and Keswick Cottages who always provide an excellent service.

Hi, Joanne! Thank you so much for your lovely review — and we’ve checked… this was visit number six to Quaver Cottage! It honestly means the world to us that you keep coming back time and time again. There’s no greater compliment than guests choosing the same cottage year after year. We’re delighted to hear it was beautifully clean as always and that it still feels like a real home?from?home for you. Even if Keswick was doing its very best to outdo itself on the rain front, we’re so glad you still enjoyed your stay. It has a charm even under a grey cloud — though we agree it can be very enthusiastic with the weather! Your thanks to the owners and to our team is truly appreciated. It’s always a pleasure looking after you, and we’re so grateful for your continued trust and warmth. We can’t wait to welcome you back for visit number seven. Best wishes, Keswick Cottages

Seeing the New Year in
We've visited Keswick many times always staying in B&B's but this was our first time in a cottage. The B&B's have always served us well but this was definitely a better experience. The moment we walked in the cottage was warm, homely and well equipped. The Christmas tree and decorations we're an unexpected bonus along with the complimentary welcome gifts, even a Christmas card. The kitchen and lounge area were the biggest plus for us over a B&B and it was very nice having a proper bathroom. The bed was very comfortable with very minimal noise from outside. The dedicated parking space and WiFi were also much appreciated.

Hi, Adrian! That's what we like to hear! Will we be seeing you again soon? You're very welcome for the gifts and card--it's the little things that go a long way, including making sure that the properties are warm on arrival! Quaver is a lovely property, in such a convenient area, especially for self-catering, with so many shops, pubs, and amenities nearby. If you have any further comments or questions, please don't hesitate to get in touch. Best wishes, Keswick Cottages

I very much enjoyed my stay at Quaver Cottage. It’s in a quiet area yet very close to all the amenities of Keswick. Free parking is a definite bonus. The cottage is extremely clean and extremely well equipped. As it is someone’s holiday home it is more cosy and homely than some other more corporate places. The cottage is close to the river and the garden attracts a lot of birds. I thoroughly enjoyed watching a family of pheasants hanging out in the garden and I think it’s the first time I’ve seen rabbits just outside my back door! I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this place - I thought it was great.
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.
