    Nothing it was great. Would recommend better cushions on main settee and a poof for your feet when sitting on main settee.

    Great location, beds were comfortable & bed linen comfy, Netflix was great, hot water which was lovely.

    Being very picky here but the bathroom extractor was a bit noisy.

    Very spacious, warm and well equipped accommodation which was spotlessly clean.

    Kitchen isn't huge but is perfectly well equipped to be functional.

    Nice quiet location on the outskirts of Keswick but only about a mile to stroll into town. Two comfy bedrooms, nice bathroom, huge lounge with attached dining area. Pool was closed for winter but looked like it would be great when open

    Best bits, located just on the edge of town, just a short walk along the river from the town centre, with views of the mountains from the room & great facilities , tv, internet, plus a pool

    Very picky and minor but I do prefer larger mugs for tea/coffee and some larger glasses for drinking water/soft drinks than those provided but that's about it. Double bed was comfortable but seemed small - although we are used to a king at home

    Had everything we needed for a short stay. Even got to use the pool as the weather was beautiful and was much needed after a walk up catbells on a hot afternoon. Close enough to town to walk there and a pub round the corner. Free parking too. Owners friendly and helpful on arrival and when leaving. Would definitely be happy to stay here again if we return to Keswick

    It was a bit of a walk into town, but honestly that wasn't a problem after 2 days. You get used to it very quickly.

    I loved the apartment, everything I could have needed was there. The hosts are nice and so helpful when you need answers to something. I had to book an extra night due to strikes in public transport and Diane had no problem with this on such short notice. Would highly recommend this place to everyone I know.

    The property is very easy to access from A66 and also conveniently situated near the Keswick town centre. It benefits from excellent views of the mountains. We requested a late check in and found out very clear instructions to get us in the property. The apartment was in a really clean state, including the outdoor swimming pool and the garden area with sit out.

    There was nothing we could fault. 😁

    We loved the location and were warmly welcomed on arrival. The accommodation was spotlessly clean, well equipped, comfortable and very spacious. We really appreciated the extra little details that we hadn't expected such shower gel, hand soap, and dishwashing soap, scourers, rubber gloves and cloths etc Also the fact that towels were also provided. Details of surrounding activities and recommendations for places to eat were also nice touch We would definitely recommend this place and would happily stay again.

    Everything was great but I think an drying rack for clothes would be great. We got caught I. The rain. Suggestion add a few more dollars to the cost and supply washing powder for the washing machine.

    We were greeted by Dianne on arrival. The apartment was spacious, clean and quiet. The lounge room was comfy and big. There were spare blankets which we snuggled up under on the couch. The Xmas lights had gone on the tree and Dianne went out and put a new set on before we arrived. Great kitchen facilities.

    Breakfast was excellent and the hosts were attentive and friendly. Particularly liked that they called me by name from the moment I arrived.

    I loved the heated pool that was available during daylight hours. It was great to have a swim each day after walking. Also breakfast was outstanding. The meal itself and the beautiful view from the dining room window. The mountains and the birds. I liked the app to order breakfast and communicate any other requests easily.
