The back door leads to a paved patio area with garden furniture.

Stairs from the entrance lobby lead to the first floor landing. From the landing a door leads to the open plan living area. There is a good sized, comfortable lounge with two settees, TV, and various pictures of Lakeland fells. A selection of tourist information, Lake District magazines and books are in the living room cupboard. The cottage is beautifully furnished, great attention to detail has been put into the decoration of each room and all the furniture is of excellent quality.

Alongside the lounge is the beautiful kitchen and dining area, with all the modern facilities as you would expect from your kitchen at home, so whether you eat out every night or stay in and play Gordon Ramsay, we are sure you will find everything you need.

Great weeks stay at Alison's View
Our 2nd stay in this homely house, conveniently situated in the centre of Keswick along with a large garage, so no parking fees. The house is comfortable and has everything you need for a self catering stay in the Lakes. Its easy & quick to take dogs to Fitz Park round the corner as there Is no garden. We had a house keeping problem which was resolved by Keswick Cottages immediately with no quibble. Can highly recommend a holiday at this house. We will return.

Thank you for your lovely review of Alison's View, we are happy to hear you had another great stay at the property. Alison's View is in a fantastic location for exploring Keswick, with parking which is a bonus, especially during busier periods. We hope to welcome you back soon for visit number 3! Best Wishes, Keswick Cottages

Great Location but shame about the beds
Well the weather was great so that always helps. The property is in the centre of Keswick so great for access to all the amenities of Keswick. The space was alright and the 2 bedrooms were of good size. The only issue with the bedrooms was the double bed in the main bedroom. It sank and wallowed all over so got very little sleep the first night. As there was just the 2 of us staying in the property we swapped to the other 2 single beds which were better although the soft sided bed bases do not make for comfortable sleeping. Parking is another issue. There is a good sized garage for the car but it is a bit of hassle getting the car in and out. On street parking is limited but always managed to find a spot. I imagine this will be more of a problem in the school holidays. But the fact that you are guaranteed a space because of the garage is a plus. Anyway the garage came in very useful with the dogs. If the beds are changed then we would use it again.

Thank you for taking the time to write a review of Alison's View, we glad you managed to visit during the recent fantastic weather. Alison's View is in a fantastic location, being a short walk from the town centre but in a relatively quiet area. We thank you for your feedback too and can assure you the mattress in the master bedroom is being replaced. We hope to welcome you back in the future! Best Wishes, Keswick Cottages

The property is very comfortable, clean and welcoming, and the location is perfect! The garage, and how useable it is, was a total bonus. We were able to put the car away safely and just walk everywhere during our stay. Many thanks!
Perfect stay and great company to deal with
Excellent location, warm, cosy & the garage!
