Had a brilliant week at this cottage after a rather bad start, I was given the wrong key codes on my paperwork and i could not access the cottage, on phone for over 20 minutes on hold to try to get it sorted but no one was answering the phone. Eventually rang an emergency number and the guy came around to the cottage to sort it, he rang the office got straight through and we had the wrong code to get the keys. Also the property was not thoroughly cleaned even with COVID, dead flies all over windowsill in sitting room and lots of food crumbs under the cushions on the sofa. Obviously has not been deep cleaned. Apart from all of that the cottage was very comfortable, in a great location and we had a great week.

This cottage was an ideal base to explore Keswick and the surrounding area. It was well equipped, clean and comfortable. The stairs are very steep and the bathroom is downstairs so would not suit everyone. It was fine for us though

This cottage is just lovely and perfect holiday accomodation, well equipped, warm and cosy. Just a couple of thoughts- an airer to dry clothes on would be useful rather than having to drape things over the radiators (if there was one I couldn't find it!) and a small stock of salt, pepper and herbs would be very useful! This was my second stay here and I wouldn't hesitate to stay again.

Nearly full marks to this lovely cottage which has been restored by the owners and is beautifully decorated.
Only a few points: the cottage was quite cold downstairs when we arrived. The listing has said that there would be enough wood left for the log burner for one evening. There was nothing and one of the night storage heaters had not been switched on the previous evening and was cold. Microwave not no working and reported to agency.
Otherwise, everything was good with the cottage. Once the heater had chanceto warm up and we bought some wood it was much warmer. Cottage is easy to find and the location is ideal for lovely walks around Derwentwater and short cut into Keswick. The launch on the lake goes all round and there is a stop 10 minutes walk from the cottage. Marina and activities nearby too.
Only gave a 9 for local amenities as there isn't a general store in the village but an excellent pub and a cafe.
Gave a 9 for cleanliness as our first job before we could eat was to clean the oven and the racks!
We contacted Cumbrian cottages to say that we though we had left binoculars behind, but one week later, they have not yet come back.

The cottage is fine and is well equipped
The night storage heaters do there job but it means the cottage is cold when returning late afternoon. There was no wood ( as promised) on arrival and the wood burner took quite a while to work. This won't be an issue for most bookings but it is worth noting for winter bookings.

Cottage was very small, and didn't like the fact that bathroom was downstairs.
