Pre Christmas Mini Break
This is the second year in a row myself my partner and our two little dogs have stayed at Birchgate we wouldn’t stay anywhere else its in a quite little street just over the road from Fitz Park it’s in a brilliant location for town. The house is very warm and welcoming with everything you need at hand in the kitchen modern appliances, it’s very clean, modern interiors and decor, beautiful bathroom you don’t feel like you’re staying in a holiday rental it feels like home we can’t wait to book up again for next year. This year was made extra magical as we were there for the Keswick Christmas Lights Switch On so it was like a proper Traditional Christmas like my childhood.

Thank you for your amazing 5* review, we are so delighted that you enjoyed your most recent stay at Birchgate. It's great that you got to catch the Christmas Lights Switch On, it's always a good night there and brings everyone together. We're glad that you have found a property that ticks all the boxes for you, we hope that you and the dogs will be back again soon, we would love to host you again! Best wishes, Keswick Cottages

Stunning
This is an amazing little cottage. We were delighted by it. There was everything that you could possibly need. and it was very stylish and comfortable. t was great to have a large number of dishes and cutlery so that we could fill the dishwasher and not run out of utensils. The bed is very comfortable . There were also considerations for our dog which were very welcome. It's a short walk into town and there is a lovely park almost opposite. I loved that there was a basket of knitting squares which I added some kitting and crochet to. Altogether a great place to stay. stay.

What an amazing review, thank you for leaving 5* and such lovely comments! It sounds like you had a really comfortable and enjoyable stay (dog included!) at Birchgate. We're glad that you added some of your handiwork to the knitting basket for others to enjoy :-) we hope to host you again soon. Best wishes, Keswick Cottages

Lovely Cottage, Great Location
We have stayed at Birchgate many times and really enjoyed our stay each time. We particularly appreciate the location close to town centre in Keswick and parking on site. The cottage is well equipped and comfortable and we noted and enjoyed the various improvements and updates this year. Service from Keswick Cottages was friendly and efficient as always. We hope to return next year!

Thank you for the terrific 5* review! We're delighted that you give the updates a big thumbs up and that you enjoyed your most recent stay. The off-street parking and proximity to town is a real bonus, we're glad that the property ticks all the boxes for you. Hope to see you again soon for your next Lakeland break. Best wishes, Keswick Cottages

This is the second year in a row myself my partner and my 2 little dogs have stayed here we wouldn’t chose anywhere else to stay for our Pre Christmas Mini Break very clean, very modern it doesn’t feel like a holiday rental it feels more like your own home. Very warm and cozy beautiful bathroom, great interiors throughout, beautiful modern kitchen, absolutely spotless on arrival absolutely beautiful. Perfect location as it’s close to the main town but at the same time the street the house is in is very quiet and tranquil. It’s a few minutes walk to Fitz Park which my two little dogs loved. We came this year in time for the Keswick Christmas Light Switch On which made the whole experience extra magical you could say it felt like the perfect traditional Christmas like my childhood. We’ll certainly be booking again for this year for our yearly Pre Christmas Mini Break. Highly recommend 100 %
Ideal location for walks in and around Keswick. The cottage was perfect for the two of us with the added advantage of off road parking.
Lovely little cottage in a perfect location! Everything the cottage was perfect and in a super location!
