Perfect few nights in Keswick
Cottage was clean and comfortable with everything required for a few nights away. Just a 10 minute stroll to the town centre.

Thank you for your lovely review of Byways, we hope you enjoyed your stay! Byways has a fantastic location, with a short walk into town but far enough away from the hustle and bustle, you can really relax! We hope to welcome you back soon! Best wishes, Keswick Cottages

Great place
A lovely property in a fantastic location only 5 mins walk to centre. Plenty of free parking on the street outside (first come basis). The property had everything we needed and was spotlessly clean on arrival. A nice welcome pack of tea,coffee biscuits and milk and a lovely tub of treats and a toy for our dog which was a lovely thought. Would stay again and have no problm using Keswick cottages again. Easy booking and excellent communication.

Thank you for your lovely review of Byways, we are so happy to hear you enjoyed your stay (and your welcome pack)!. The property is in a fantastic location with it only being a 5 minute walk into the town centre, and so many beautiful walks can be reached from your doorstep! Thank you also for your kind words about our service, as a small independent business we really do appreciate the feedback! We hope to welcome you back again soon! Best Wishes, Keswick Cottages.

Byways has been our favourite place to stay in Keswick for many years. Clean, cosy, comfortable, ideally equipped and closed to the town centre.
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 :-)
I have booked three times now and never disappointed with the property and the facilities.
