Overview

The cottage retains all the original features of a traditional Lakeland home yet at the same time offers modern fixtures, comfort and style. A small yet characterful front garden has outdoor seating to enjoy that 'post hike' drink on sunny afternoons and evenings. The cottage serves as a wonderful bolthole for couples, small groups of friends or families.

Lovely cottage and perfect location. It was very clean and spacious the bed was very comfortable . However the top floor bedroom looked fantastic. Highly recommend this place. Rebecca who took our booking was very friendly and professional. Will continue to use Keswick Cottages.
We were a party of four adults, two couples renting the cottage for a week. The cottage is very nice, a little smaller than the photos make it look. Large communal kitchen, small-ish living room with lots of books, games & blurays. Great location, literally a stone's throw from the nearest pub & only a 5 minute walk down to the Portinscale marine + Derwentwater. A 5 minute drive into Keswick. Would possibly stay there again.
Excellent cosy cottage, pub over the road and easy walk to Keswick. We will book again!
