I doubt you will find a better property in central Keswick
Been staying at Bridge House with a group of friends for many years as part of our annual excursion. Why do we go back to the same place you might ask? Because we have confidence Bridge House always delivers. A great location with a 2-minute walk into Keswick which has so much to offer, and by far the best town in the Lake District. Generous and allocated parking spaces for each property. 5 star spacious excellent accommodation and with a regular refurbishment programme. Finally great customer service from the staff at Keswick Cottages.

Hi, Mike! Thank you so much for this fantastic review — it genuinely means a lot to us. Hearing that you and your friends have chosen Bridge House for so many years as part of your annual trip is the kind of feedback that makes our whole team smile. There’s no bigger compliment than guests returning time and time again. You summed up exactly what makes Bridge House special: that brilliant two?minute stroll into Keswick, generous parking, and the space and quality needed for a proper group getaway. We’re really glad the regular refurbishments shine through too — we put a lot of care into keeping everything fresh, comfortable and up to scratch. And your kind words about our team truly made our day. We take great pride in giving guests the sort of service that feels warm, reliable and personal, so thank you for noticing. We’re absolutely delighted Bridge House continues to deliver for your group each year — and we’ll be just as delighted to welcome you all back for the next one. Best wishes, Keswick Cottages

‘Excellent stay at Bridge House’
My family thoroughly enjoyed our stay for a week at Bridge House. The house is really gorgeous, well maintained spacious, comfortable throughout and extremely clean. The location was perfect for exploring the beautiful area, and for visiting the local shops and restaurants. Couldn't fault a thing, and we would like to return. Thank you so much.

Hi, Ian! Thank you so much for such a lovely review — it really put a smile on all our faces. We’re absolutely delighted to hear that your family had such an enjoyable week at Bridge House. We’re really glad the location worked perfectly for you. Being able to explore the Lakes with ease and wander to the local shops and restaurants is one of the things that makes Bridge House such a special place to stay, and it’s wonderful to hear it added to your holiday. Your comment that you “couldn’t fault a thing” is just amazing, and we’re thrilled to hear you’d like to return — we’d be absolutely delighted to welcome you back whenever you’re ready for your next Keswick escape. Thank you again for taking the time to share your experience. Best wishes, Keswick Cottages

Great for larger groups
We were a group of 6, could easily fit 8. Place is perfect, everything you need, large comunal area in living room and in kitchen. Bedrooms are spotless and excellent 3 bathrooms. Only thing that could be improved was the signal of the WiFi which wasn't great anywhere in the house but don't let that put you off as you'll be out exploring in any case.

Hi, Paul! Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such a fantastic review. It’s wonderful to hear that Bridge House worked so well for your group of six, and that you felt there was more than enough space for eight. The house is designed with social stays in mind, so your comments about the generous living room, the large, well?equipped kitchen, and the ease of spending time together really capture what makes this property special. The owners have put a lot of care into creating a welcoming, high?quality space—from the spotless bedrooms to the three modern bathrooms—so it’s lovely to hear that everything met your expectations. Bridge House is one of our most popular larger properties, especially with its private parking, peaceful setting just moments from the centre of Keswick, and the added bonus of access to the shared garden and river views. Thank you as well for mentioning the WiFi. Rural and stone?built properties can sometimes make signal strength a challenge, but feedback like yours helps us continue working with owners to improve connectivity wherever possible. And as you say, with the fells, lakes, and town centre right on the doorstep, most guests spend their days out exploring anyway. As an independent, family?run agency, we truly appreciate your kind words and the care you’ve taken to share your experience. We’d be delighted to welcome you and your group back to Bridge House—or any of our cottages—whenever you’re planning your next trip to the Lakes. Best wishes, Keswick Cottages

A very nice house for a 3- generation family in a fabulous location. Great facilities, well furnished and homely despite its size. Highly recommended.
Beautiful area and loads to do!
Just returned from a glorious week at Bridge House. Bridge House is ideal for a family holiday with a lovely garden yet in the very centre of Keswick. There is some noise from traffic on the main street but the house is well equipped and maintained and the traffic noise didn't distract us too much. We have already booked a return visit.
