Lovely cottage in Braithwaite
Rosebank is a very clean, comfortable cottage. Lovely views across to the hills at the back & pheasants & lots of birds visit the garden.Very handy for the Coledale Inn, & the Royal Oak & 5 minutes in the car to Keswick if you want to try something different like Thai food at the the Star of Siam. We have stayed there frequently & will definitely go again. Many thanks.

Cosy Cottage
We had a wonderful stay with our dogs. It is a lovely fully equipped cosy cottage with great views. It's is in a lovely spot of Braithwaite. The only warning is to be VERY careful leaving the drive as it's on a blind bend in both directions on a single car road. The garden is lovely and I imagine it will be beautiful to sit outside in Summer.

Hi, Kim! Thank you so much for leaving a kind review of Rose Bank Cottage. This is an absolutely stunning property, in every way. Even with the rotten weather we've had, the garden is still great, but you are right in saying it'll be even lovelier in the sunny months! Hey, it's a great excuse to visit again soon. We'd love to welcome you back to Rose Bank Cottage soon. Best wishes, Keswick Cottages

Brilliant place to stay
We had a very enjoyable stay at Rosebank the place was immaculate. The little touches of fresh flowers , welcome pack for us and our dog was very much appreciated. Even hand wash in both bathrooms and kitchen we usually take our own as none usually provided , plenty of dishwasher tablets and washing up liquid everything thought of . Kitchen was well equipped , comfortable beds and plenty hot water . We loved seeing the wide variety of birds that visited the garden especially the pheasants. The views beautiful and plenty of walks straight from the door
