Overview

This three-storey apartment offers spectacular views of the mountain ranges surrounding the town, while being within easy reach of local amenities, making it the ideal accommodation for friends and families alike. On the first-floor you will find the living sitting room, boasting stunning bay windows.

Beautifully decorated without following any trend but encapsulating nature. The layout provides both intimacy and space; whilst there are amazing views from every room, some with dual aspect. Both seconds from the heart of the town and also on the edge of nature with the river Greta both visible and audible from the lounge window.

A fabulous holiday
We stayed at the Eyrie over the Christmas week and had an amazing stay. The apartment was beautifully decorated for Christmas. All around the property there were lots of unusual ornaments and pictures. All of the bedrooms were well appointed and certainly my bedroom (the master) on the top floor had beautiful views over The Dodds and Latrigg. On the landing there is a telescope for visitors to view the amazing scenery. My son and his partner whilst using the telescope viewed a gentleman proposing to his girlfriend on the summit of Latrigg. Anyone staying at The Eyrie would be sure to have a wonderful time. We ate out twice during our stay and also enjoyed the drummers who paraded through Keswick and also the Carol singers who performed in the Square. If I had to give any negative observations it would be that the TV proved rather limited in its available channels. Secondly the kitchen could do with at least one large saucepan suitable to be used for 7/8 people. I used the largest pan to cook pasta for 7 but it was nowhere near big enough. I'm also glad that I ordered a turkey crown for Christmas Dinner and nothing larger as it wouldn't have fitted in the oven. A useful thing in the showers would be a squeeze to clean surfaces.

Thank you for your excellent 5* review! It sounds like you had a wonderful stay at The Eyrie and we're glad to hear that you appreciated all the interesting curios and decorations around the place, as well as those incredible views! The drumming parade looked so much fun and made for a memorable experience I'm sure. Your feedback on the pan, the oven and the squeegee is much appreciated and we can pass this on to the owner for their consideration, guest insight is invaluable, so thank you :-) We hope to host you again for your next Lakeland break. Best wishes, Keswick Cottages

Review of Eyrie
Beautifully furnished home in excellent location between the town parks and centre. The ornaments and fittings in the Eyrie are fantastic. Our only issue was the lack of a spare roll of toilet tissue.

Thank you for your fabulous review, we're delighted that you enjoyed your stay. We're glad that you appreciated the amazing interior decoration, the owners have recently renovated the property to a very high spec. Starter items are provided at our properties including a refreshments pack, kitchen pack and also one toilet roll per bath/shower room. Additional provisions can be added to your reservation at the time of booking, otherwise we recommend bringing along your own. More information can be found in our FAQ's :-) We hope to host you again soon! Best wishes, Keswick Cottages.
