Always Great!
We’ve stayed in Byways 10+ times and it’s always brilliant. Very clean and well maintained, and this time had had a bit of a spruce up since we last visited in November. The bedrooms had been swapped over and a nice big king double had been added to the double room, very comfy and cosy. The downstairs had also had a lick of paint and was looking fresh. The only thing missing was the footstools which used to be in the lounge… they were very handy for resting aching legs after a day in the fells! As usual we had a great weeks stay in Byways and we’ll be back again later this year or in spring next year. Thanks :-)

This is a lovely review, thank you. You must know Byways like the back of your hand so we are thrilled that you approve of the changes following the revamp! We also appreciate your insight regarding the foot stools and will pass this on to the new owner. We look forward to hosting you at Byways again for your next adventures in the fells. Best wishes, Keswick Cottages.

Perfect for exploring
Just 10 minutes walk from the centre of Keswick and 15 from the amazing Derwent water; we found Byways to be the perfect base for our 4 night stay.

Thank you so much for your review! We're so happy you found this the perfect place to stay. Situated in Keswick, it is only a short walk into the centre and to the shores of Derwentwater. We hope you had a wonderful time exploring Keswick and we hope to welcome you back again! Best Wishes, Keswick Cottages

Short stay at Byways
Perfect location, walking distance into Keswick town centre. Added bonus of a courtyard garden. We didn’t find the sofa’s very comfortable but apart from that small niggle, 10/10 property.

Thank you so much for your review! We're so happy you enjoyed the courtyard garden, a perfect place to sit after a day out. We hope you had a wonderful time and we hope to welcome you back again! Best Wishes, Keswick Cottages

I have booked three times now and never disappointed with the property and the facilities.
We had a very good stay in wonderful Keswick. Byways is in a very good location, convenient for the town and excursions. The property is well equipped and the downstairs is very well laid out. The family bathroom is ok, although the shower is erratic and the screen doesn’t prevent the floor getting wet. The bedrooms are basic but adequate. Finally, a couple of minor challenges; the stair gate is very cumbersome to use and accessing the house key was a bit problematic from the exterior box.
We have stayed at Byways several times so it really does feel like a home from home. This time we had a short break at the end of November so it was no surprise that it rained most of the time! However, we had come prepared with all our waterproof walking gear so enjoyed some good walks in fabulous scenery including Walla Crag, Buttermere and Whinlatter Forest. It was nice to have a cosy place to come back to. We also visited the Dog and Gun three times and enjoyed their goulash, as well as their lovely Loweswater Gold. Well, walking is thirsty work! Hope to visit Keswick again soon in better weather!
