Ideal location and cosy cottage.
Pros: A cosy and warm cottage, twin beds which we slept in were very comfy. Had all the kitchen items you needed for cooking, crockery, cutlery and glasses.The location was ideal, just a 15mins walk into Keswick town centre. The Pheasant inn right next door was also very cosy and the dinner's were delicious with a great choice on menu and staff so friendly and helpful. Would definitely stay again and recommend to family and friends.
Cons: It would have been nice to have a small welcome pack for late arrivals ie small loaf of bread, small tub of butter, small pint of milk, some coffee sachets, some tea bags and some sachets of sugar. Also could do with a net curtain in the sitting room window as passers by seem to look in a lot.

Excellent location and clean and modern kitchen and bathroom
Pros: Location is perfect with a 15 minute riverside walk into the centre of Keswick and right next to a lovely pub!
Cons: Main bedroom was too small, so we slept in the larger bedroom with 2 single beds. Outside area was not very nice, a table and chairs would have been better than a bench.

Lovely place to stay, price increases making it harder each year so haven’t booked up again just yet
Pros: Always love staying here and seeing what’s new. The kitchen this year having been bathroom some time prior.
Cons: Wasn’t as clean as we have been used too. Lipstick on glasses, bathroom not clean to its usual standard.

A cosy and homely cottage we look forward visiting again!
Pros: Cottage was comfortable and homely. The quality smart TV and gas fire made for cosy nights in during the winter. Broadband measured 48/10Mb/s for smooth streaming to multiple devices. Being able to park at the property (and not have to rush to load/unload on a road or other public thoroughfare or trek to/from the car in the rain) was, i think, the biggest convenience at the property.
Cons: The hot water seemed to be regulated at the taps. It would be hot for a couple of seconds then reduce in temp to warm at best. This didn't seem as pronounced in the shower, but made running a hot bath to soak after a day on the hills impossible without boiling a few kettles of water to boost the temperature. Also, a dishwasher (even a small counter top one) would enhance the experience considerably. Washing dishes on holiday detracts from the overall relaxation of the holiday IMHO!

We had a very enjoyable stay and would certainly stay here again
Pros: The cottage was very comfortable and clean. We loved the pub being next door.
Cons: Putting the vacuum cleaner on and it having a very unpleasant smell. The yard area could do with a bit brightening up.
