Cosy and relaxing
The property is in a good location for walks and a short drive to Keswick, you can also get straight on the River from the back garden if you have a boat which we will do next stay.

A gem of a cottage
Riverside is a comfortable, homely property in a stunning location. Situated right on the riverbank in beautiful Borrowdale, there was wildlife in abundance and lovely walks on the doorstep. The friendly owners provided a super welcome pack on arrival. We will definitely be returning in the future.

Amazing riverside property
We spent a very happy week in this gorgeous house - very well equipped and comfortable. The garden, including a lovely balcony overlooking the river, is beautiful and perfect for bird watching. My sons enjoyed the proximity to the river and swam/paddle boarded (in February...!) There were a few issues with fuses blowing during the weekend we arrived, but this was quickly sorted and we had no more problems for the remainder of our stay. Thank you, Jonathan, for sorting out these problems, and for sharing your lovely house. We would love to return.

Relaxing cosy stay
The cottage is in a good location for walks and a short drive to Keswick, when we entered there was a lovely welcome pack in the kitchen for us and as soon as we unpacked we felt at home, having the river just out the back of the property was very nice as was the log burner.

Outstanding cottage, ideally situated, super clean, excellent hosts
Simply home from home. Log fire was amazing. Very thoughtful welcome pack, hosts on hand for anything you may need. One of the best places we’ve stayed in the the Lake District. Lovely walks from the door, outstanding grounds teeming with wildlife, quiet and secure. Highly recommend for up to 4 people.

We had a very enjoyable holiday despite mixed weather. Great walking on the doorstep.
The property lived up the expectations, if anything the photos didn’t do justice to the property. Great garden and property setting.
