Another lovely stay
Thanks to Keswick Cottages for another fantastic holiday at Quaver Cottage: fantastically equipped kitchen, extremely comfortable bed and cosy living room with great dinning facilities and comfy sofas. The location could not be better, with Booths a stone's throw away and the lake an easy stroll. Everything is perfect and the weather even cooperated with excellent hiking conditions. We're already planning our return trip next year.

Thank you so much for your lovely review and for choosing Quaver Cottage once again. Its so rewarding to welcome back returning guests, it gives us confidence we are doing a good job! [Emoji Removed] Although we aren't surprised you would return here, as you have said the location is perfect for exploring all Keswick has to offer yet hosts a quiet peaceful location after a long day. Having the good weather is definitely a bonus and not something you dare to wish for when booking your stay in the Lakes ?? [Emoji Removed]? so we are very pleased to hear you got to experience the fells in perfect conditions. We hope to welcome you back again soon

Lovely, comfortable accommodation
Excellent accommodation. Couldn't wish for anything else. Well stocked kitchen, lovely lounge area and very comfortable beds. Ideal location for the buses and Booths! A bonus with the parking slot as we didn't use the car all week. And we were fairly lucky with the weather

Quaver cottage is a very comfortable well equipped cottage
We enjoyed our stay at quaver cottage and I would definitely like to stay there again next time we holiday in Keswick. The cottage is clean and comfortable and very well equipped and in a wonderful location which is quiet yet within a few minutes walk to the town with all the pubs and restaurants and many shops and an added bonus is that it is a minutes walk from the booths supermarket which is really handy and stocks superb food and wines etc, so we look forward to returning in the near future.

The perfect spot! We loved our time at Quaver cottage. It’s clean, beautiful and has comfy beds. Perfect location to get to town a surrounding sites. Happy to recommend and will definitely be visiting again.
I very much enjoyed my stay at Quaver Cottage. It’s in a quiet area yet very close to all the amenities of Keswick. Free parking is a definite bonus. The cottage is extremely clean and extremely well equipped. As it is someone’s holiday home it is more cosy and homely than some other more corporate places. The cottage is close to the river and the garden attracts a lot of birds. I thoroughly enjoyed watching a family of pheasants hanging out in the garden and I think it’s the first time I’ve seen rabbits just outside my back door! I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this place - I thought it was great.
A fabulous cottage in a wonderful location, just a couple of minutes from the centre but really quiet despite that. I felt at home immediately and it was really cosy and clean.
