Keswick Hotel Guide - Blencathra hotels in Keswick, United Kingdom.

"The farmhouse is furnished to a good standard and we were very comfortable. Outside the views are superb and every bedroom has an amazing view. Dog owners must note that it's a busy working sheep farm so your dog has to be on a lead at all times when outside, there are no enclosed areas. It's in a good location off the A66 close to Threlkeld and Keswick with lots of walks available right from the doorstep."

"Gorgeous little lodge ideal for a few days break loved every minute the only let down was the shower was broken so water was either to hot or to cold and door of shower was lose but otherwise perfect place to stay"

"We took one puppy and thankfully everything in the probably worked out well. Would have been nice if it could have accommodated more than 2 pets but it was no problem "

"Great base and fab owners who showed us the route to path we needed to climb Blencathra… lovely walking route to Keswick. Threlkeld has the nicest little coffee shop."

"Great little space for a stay near beautiful keswick, cottage was located a 10-15 minute drive from the town centre & gorgous walks local throughout. Clean, tidy cottage with a great shower. Only slight issue was the kitchen was very compact so would benefit from a wooden top that could be placed over the sink to give more work top space. Some clear instructions for the oven would be great too as it was difficult to use, had to google how to use and even then couldnt get it working 100%. Overall a lovely great stay & we would stay here again x"

"Lovely cottage in a picturesque area. Clean and roomy. Did not have hot water. Radiant heaters were not operating. No napkins or paper towels. No detergent for dishwasher. We were uncomfortable without hot water and heating. Unable to communicate readily with owner or property manager. "

"Nice bolt hole for a few days. Small but comfortable."

"Had a great stay, good location and very clean. Lack of washing machine and very uncomfortable sofa is our only criticism."

"The property was beautiful and had everything we needed. We hiked Catbells, Hallin fell, and Black Moss Pot in Stonethwaite. We enjoyed a swim in Lake Ullswater-- we went to Glenridding and followed a footpath down to the water and had a little private cove all to ourselves on a hot day. We also hiked at Hadrian's wall and pursued some family history at Blenkinsopp Castle. We visited Keswick and had terrific Indian/Bangladeshi food at Saffron Kitchen. We ate breakfast for 4 days at the cottage and made two suppers while there and the kitchen had everything we needed. The only difficulty we had was communicating with the host, but I think that was more of a VRBO interface problem. VRBO was saying I had the wrong email address even though I was communicating via the VRBO app. Once I set up an account in cottages.com and reached out that way, I got a prompt response. The only thing I would suggest is to have pertinent property information posted on a paper near the kitchen table and wifi access code. It would be helpful to have general terms posted to include the check out time (since it is a bit earlier than most properties), whether we need to provide additional supplies such as toilet roll or whether those are supplied by the host, and any requirements for how to leave the property (what to do with trash and recycling, if there are other requests re: towels and bedding, etc.). We absolutely loved our stay in the beautifully updated Doddick Chase stone cottage!"
