Guest Reviews

• Emma (8/5): Really great accommodation with a naturally heated pool and great views all around the house. - The guesthouse and apartment are in a fantastic location on the outskirts of Keswick, and it was lovely to be close enough to everything so as to walk in, but far enough to experience the quiet and peace. The kitchen was well-equipped so we could cook and enjoy our own food, and also the Pheasant Inn round the corner serves delicious traditional food. The bonus was Diane and Andrew opened up the wonderful swimming pool so we could have a swim. Thank you
• Maire (7/5): Good base for a visit to Keswick - Plenty of space, nice sitting / dining room Single beds probably ok for children but not comfortable for adults
• Alastair (10/5): - House is spacious. Kitchen and bathroom are very clean. Location is lovely. 15 mins walk from town centre but nice pub, Café and shop all.within a few minutes walk. Parking I an added bonus. Would definitely go back.
• Ian (9/5): Another wonderful stay in the Lakes. Would recommend Skiddaw Grove. - Location was excellent for walks into hills and into town. Fantastic view from kitchen and front bedroom! Warm and comfortable. Good pub just around the corner with delicious food. Great to have off-road parking in Keswick. Good communication from Diane, our host. Cosy for 4 adults! No washing machine for extended stay if needed.
• Karen (9/5): Super location. Very quiet, clean and spacious. - Good/quiet location. Clean and spacious.
• Heather (8/5): Great base for exploring Keswick and surrounding fells - There was only two of us, and the apartment slept 4, so it was very spacious for us. There was a large lounge and the kitchen had all you needed. The apartment was clean and warm. WiFi and sky access (and others) were good Nothing
• Alma (8/5): Thank you for keeping us warm - Excellent location N.A
• deborah (10/5): Great stay, comfortable apartment. - The location is good just on the outskirts of Keswick with a good local pub a couple of minutes walk away. We had the terrace apartment which, although a little dated, was comfortable and warm with several beds, tv’s and two showers. It was very quiet at night for sleeping and also clean. The kitchen was well equipped for a short stay and there was a nice view from the kitchen and one of the bedroom windows. There’s a pleasant walk down to Keswick or a bus stop very close by. Keswick is beautifully situated in the Lake District and there are many lovely walks nearby. Great Booths supermarket in town. Good communication with the hosts about check in. Hope to return next year as it’s a very good base. Not a problem for us but there are short, steep steps up to the terrace apartment.
• Wood HURC (7/5): -
• Alexey (10/5): -
• Martin (6/5): Centrally located. Excellent private parking. Good communication with owner. - Didn’t have breakfast here Musty smell in apartment.
• Marilyn (9/5): A perfect place to relax or walk - The location was perfect, and the beautiful garden and pool just what was needed after a day walking. The apartment was compact, clean and cosy. The hosts, Diane and Andrew were very friendly and helpful. Quick to deal with problems and make suggestions. There was nothing we didn’t like, but I have offered Diane a couple of suggestions to make life easier in the kitchen. Remember to bring towels for the pool. I had to ask for some.
• Dave (10/5): Exceptional - Great communication, and a friendly welcome. The property was clean, comfortable and ideally located. The facilities were great, as was the pool. Nothing to dislike.

• Poorav (9/5): A nice experience - Very comfortably located in Keswick . It’s quiet but everything is nearby . Owners are helpful and around but not intrusive at all. There’s a small set of stairs to climb to reach rhe apartment. So recommend to carry light luggage
• Maru (10/5): Exceptional -
• Paul (9/5): Superb - Everything we needed for a long weekend in Keswick. Large property, comfortable accommodation for 4 adults. Ideally located for the golf course & numerous hiking trails. Great pub, the Pheasant Inn 2 minutes walk away. 15 minute stroll into town along the river. Nothing
• Saul (8/5): It was functional and comfortable, with a great location. - A pleasant and comfortable ground floor apartment, it was warm and peaceful. It's location, whilst 20mins walk into Keswick, is fine. The Pheasant pub is very close as is the Fuel Station cafe. A teabag or two might have been nice. I don't know, but with with a spotless and empty kitchen I had to buy 80 teabags for a 3 night stay...but went to the cafe for coffee..
• Rob (9/5): Superb -
• Andrea (10/5): We had a fabulous weekend and would definately stay again. - I loved the fact that it was quiet in a great location with lovely views. The hosts were not intrusive but was available for anything that we required. Nothing

• Gerald (8/5): Great stay , nice place, - Good location, quiet surroundings. Nice pool although the weather wasn't the best for our week. TV aerial signal dropped out although iplayer worked ok. Steady hum of pool pump audible in bedroom
• Paul (10/5): Will return it was that good. - Clean, fully equipped. Nothing
• Sonia (9/5): Lovely accommodation in a great area - Great location, beds were comfortable & bed linen comfy, Netflix was great, hot water which was lovely. Nothing it was great. Would recommend better cushions on main settee and a poof for your feet when sitting on main settee.
• David (10/5): Lovely accommodation in good location away from the bustle of a lively town centre. Great pub 2 mins - Very spacious, warm and well equipped accommodation which was spotlessly clean. Being very picky here but the bathroom extractor was a bit noisy.
• Thompson (10/5): Excellent stay -
• James (8/5): Very good -
• Kamlesh (10/5): Excellent apartment and would definitely stay again and recommend 100% - Fantastic Location and very clean. Wonderful flat for families with parking on site and town centre just 10 mins walk away. Nothing
• Stuart (10/5): Exceptional - Nice quiet location on the outskirts of Keswick but only about a mile to stroll into town. Two comfy bedrooms, nice bathroom, huge lounge with attached dining area. Pool was closed for winter but looked like it would be great when open Kitchen isn't huge but is perfectly well equipped to be functional.
• Wallace (8/5): Very good -
• Pete (9/5): A characterful property ran by a lovely couple - Best bits, located just on the edge of town, just a short walk along the river from the town centre, with views of the mountains from the room & great facilities , tv, internet, plus a pool I couldn’t really pick a fault
• Tonia (9/5): A fab short stay, that allowed us to relax, walk and swim. - Location is excellent. Short walk to Keswick. Near Fitz park. A good pub and cafe near by.
• Anne (7/5): Good -
• Stewart (9/5): Long weekend for Lakesman Triathlon - Really convenient location we were in town for the Lakesman traithlon so having a quiet self catering apartment was ideal. The apartment was well kitted out with useful consumables so it was easy to use and keep tidy. Pub and cafe 5 minutes walk if you dont want to cook and or have a drink wifi stength was not great could do with a boost
• Yvonne (9/5): Superb - Had everything we needed for a short stay. Even got to use the pool as the weather was beautiful and was much needed after a walk up catbells on a hot afternoon. Close enough to town to walk there and a pub round the corner. Free parking too. Owners friendly and helpful on arrival and when leaving. Would definitely be happy to stay here again if we return to Keswick Very picky and minor but I do prefer larger mugs for tea/coffee and some larger glasses for drinking water/soft drinks than those provided but that's about it. Double bed was comfortable but seemed small - although we are used to a king at home
• Iris (9/5): Superb - I loved the apartment, everything I could have needed was there. The hosts are nice and so helpful when you need answers to something. I had to book an extra night due to strikes in public transport and Diane had no problem with this on such short notice. Would highly recommend this place to everyone I know. It was a bit of a walk into town, but honestly that wasn't a problem after 2 days. You get used to it very quickly.
• Gideon (10/5): Exceptional -
• Meenal (9/5): A pleasant stay, good interaction with the owners. Will surely recommend. - The property is very easy to access from A66 and also conveniently situated near the Keswick town centre. It benefits from excellent views of the mountains. We requested a late check in and found out very clear instructions to get us in the property. The apartment was in a really clean state, including the outdoor swimming pool and the garden area with sit out.
• Rebecca (9/5): Will definitely book again. - The host was amazingly accommodating. Rooms clean and contained everything you could need. Awesome location. Fabulous heated pool.
• Akvile (10/5): fabulous stay in April - it was very spacious and well layers out - added bonus after a long day of hiking was heated swimming pool 🏊‍♂️ we loved everything
• Samantha (8/5): Lovely apartment in stunning location. - The apartment was spotlessly clean and well equipped. My 14 year daughter was also really happy it had Netflix, Amazon Prime and You Tube :) N/A
• Radhakrishnan (10/5): Exceptional! Would come back again! - Exceptional location and a very nice and well maintained property. Landlord was very helpful on the queries. Facilities are exceptional and peppery was very clean! Nothing comes to mind!
• Norman (9/5): Accommodation was comfortable in a very good location. - N/A N/A
• Lucy (8/5): Great location on edge of Keswick. Free parking and whole apartment for the price of a room in town. -
• Debbie (10/5): Exceptional - We loved the location and were warmly welcomed on arrival. The accommodation was spotlessly clean, well equipped, comfortable and very spacious. We really appreciated the extra little details that we hadn't expected such shower gel, hand soap, and dishwashing soap, scourers, rubber gloves and cloths etc Also the fact that towels were also provided. Details of surrounding activities and recommendations for places to eat were also nice touch We would definitely recommend this place and would happily stay again. There was nothing we could fault. 😁
• Zain (9/5): Superb -
• Charvi (7/5): Good - The hot water wasn’t working properly and it was obviously freezing there. we went to celebrate new year’s
• Debbie (10/5): Dianne was lovely. The apartment was quiet and spacious and in a great location - We were greeted by Dianne on arrival. The apartment was spacious, clean and quiet. The lounge room was comfy and big. There were spare blankets which we snuggled up under on the couch. The Xmas lights had gone on the tree and Dianne went out and put a new set on before we arrived. Great kitchen facilities. Everything was great but I think an drying rack for clothes would be great. We got caught I. The rain. Suggestion add a few more dollars to the cost and supply washing powder for the washing machine.
• Allan (9/5): Would recommend this place -
• Teresa (10/5): Exceptional -
