Perfect location, perfect house
This is our second time staying at Ellergill and it did not disappoint. Every room is perfect, clean with good facilities. The best way to describe it would be home from home.

Hi Gemma, Thank you for your review. Ellergill is a great property to get family or friends together for a break in the Lakes. It's central location with dedicated parking make it a great base for getting out and exploring Keswick and the surrounding areas. It is close to the shops and restaurants or if you want to travel a bit further afield then the bus stop is only a short walk away. We hope we will be able to welcome you back for a third stay soon! Best wishes, Keswick Cottages

Excellent
We have been staying in Keswick for 12 years and we have finally found the property that suits all our needs. As a family of 3 generations it is usually hard to please us all. Ellergill has the best location with excellent parking for us all. The house was the cleanest we have found and the fact each room had access to its own bathroom too. The kitchens facilities had everything we needed and the garden was a lovely secure space for our pooch. If I had to be picky the only one negative is the window in the kind size bedroom on the first floor doesn't stay open so we used a log from downstairs for this. It was very warm when we was there so some fans would have been a nice extra too. We will definitely be booking here again and probably for every Keswick stay moving forward. Thank you

Hi Suzanne, Thank you or your lovely review of Ellergill! We love to hear when we can tick every box for our guests. Ellergill is right in the centre of town so having the benefit of it's own parking is certainly an added bonus. The property is also close to Fitz Park which is a great place to walk your pooch. We hope that you come and stay with us again soon! Best wishes, Keswick Cottages

A great property in an ideal location
This was a brilliant property for week 3 of the Keswick convention, an ideal location in the centre of Keswick with parking too! House was comfortable and ideal for 2 families sharing together. Only complaint was the tin opener was useless and needs replacing!

Hi Sharon, Thank you for your review. Ellergill is in a great location, very close to the town centre with all it's amenities and shops. Thank you for mentioning the tin opener, we will organise a new one. Our office is just in town so if you had given u a call we could have replaced it for you during your stay. Best wishes, Keswick Cottages

The house is in an excellent, central location. We were a group of 8 women meeting for a family get together and the house was perfect. It is clean, spacious, sunny and had everything we needed and more. The information received prior to our visit regarding our stay was great and having the app on my phone was really handy. We will definitely book again and will recommend to others.

We gathered the family together to celebrate a 69th birthday. The property was very clean and had everything we needed. The location is excellent and the nearby views stunning.
