Description

As you enter this warm and welcoming apartment you will find yourself in the comfortable lounge with two seater sofa, Smart TV, easy chair, and dining table. There are lovely views from this room across Keswick facing south west for the afternoon and evening sun.

The newly-refurbished kitchen may be compact but is well equipped for your holiday. A small hallway gives access to the shower room. The east facing bedroom dressed with luxury linen and towels has beautiful views across the river Greta and Fitz park. The delightful sound of the river running past the building can be heard through the open bedroom window.

This modern apartment makes the perfect base for two, with easy access to explore all Keswick and the surrounding area has to offer. It would be easy to park up and enjoy a car-free holiday with fantastic walks and the vibrant town centre pubs, shops, parks and restaurants only minutes from the doorstep.

Keswick offers plenty of options to keep you occupied during your stay. For walkers the Keswick to Threlkeld Railway Trial which starts next to the Keswick Leisure centre is a 5 kilometre (10 kilometre there and back) walk along what was once a railway track. It offers beautiful views and is a multi-user trial suitable for pushchairs, wheelchairs and mobility scooters. If you fancy something with a little more elevation and spectacular views, Latrigg and Walla Crag can be reached from your doorstep, and you can even tick off some Wainwrights! 10 minutes out of Keswick is Whinlatter forest, which offers a huge selection of walks and outdoor activities.

Keswick itself offers lots of amenities, from shops to cafés, pubs to theatres, you will be spoilt for choice.

Gretaside
The apartment was great , small but ideal for 2 and a dog . It was very clean and the welcome packs were much appreciated . The location was superb , central and not far from the beautiful park. The fact it had a parking space was very useful too. We wouid definitely recommend Keswick cottages as a booking agent , the digital guidebook and their customer service was excellent , we would definitely book via them again .

Brilliant experience
We had a short but very enjoyable stay in this excellent accommodation. Keswick was amazing and we also explored Ambleside and took the boat down Windermere to Bowness. On the two brief occasions I spoke to staff they were professional, proficient and very personable and, need I say it, helpful. All in all a thoroughly enjoyable experience.

Thank you for your amazing 5* review of Gretaside, we are so happy you enjoyed your stay and your visit to the Lakes! Gretaside is a fantastic property for couples to use as a base to explore Keswick, and with the bonus of parking it is ideal for those busier months! Thank you also for your kind words about our service, we are always here to help! Best Wishes, Keswick Cottages

Good bathroom, nice living room. Location very handy. Bed was comfortable. Place was cosy and heating easy to use. Outside the bedroom window a beautiful narrow river flowing past, a beautiful sound. Kitchen facilities were great. A number of other places had failed to provide a simple spatula to cook with but our facilities there were great for that, there was a spatula and lots of other stuff including a new pack of cleaning items. Also a welcome pack of assorted biscuits. The staff did not bother us about checking out, meaning they did not barge in before we had left which had happened at other places so the staff at greta side knew we were there and knew their job. The company are local which to me was a factor as they understand their clients and the area. An excellent place and wonderful stay so thank you for that.

Excellent location in Keswick, well maintained small property would be ideal for a couple to stay, pet friendly and good onsite parking included. The property was very clean and well presented. The rooms are small but adequate for our 3 night stay. Would recommend to anyone as long as they can manage two flights of stairs. Am looking forward to staying here again in the future.
