Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, communication
Even though the property is in the middle of the village it was very quiet indoors. The apartment is roomy and light and equipped with everything we could need. We love Portinscale and enjoy the walk over the fields into Keswick, We would certainly love a return visit..

Very nice apartment.
Very nice apartment. Bedrooms are on ground floor which gives lounge and kitchen the best views of Portinscale area. Kitchen very well stocked with all you need for preparing meals in. Only a 20 minute walk to Keswick town and plenty of great walks from the apartment if you don’t want to take the car. Really enjoyed our stay in this very comfortable apartment and would definitely recommend.
