Very warm welcome, lovely hotel & excellent service

Susan, United Kingdom

This hotel was probably the best hotel I have stayed in in Keswick. The owners were lovely and nothing was too much bother. Had a fantastic view of Skiddaw from our window. Thanks for a fantastic stay. Will definitely be coming back again. If I had enough money i would buy it as it is for sale!!!

Michelle, United Kingdom

The old building had been transformed into a lovely B n B. The hosts were great with plenty of suggestions for walks and places to eat. A short walk into town via the river made it an ideal quiet place to stay.

Mary, United Kingdom

Perfect / peaceful location. Warm and informative welcome. Extremely clean and spacious room. Excellent breakfast. Would recommend a stay at the Laidback, we'll be returning.

Tim, United Kingdom

Room was clean, hotel was old fashioned but very beautiful.

Antony, United Kingdom

James, United Kingdom

The breakfast and service was excellent. Staff and owner were very friendly and would recommend it to anyone.

Derek, United Kingdom

Quiet location. Instant hot water. Spacious comfortable room. Beautiful view of Skiddaw. Quick friendly service at breakfast time. The breakfast was freshly cooked. A Victorian house with interesting history and with 21st century plumbing and facilities.

A proper sitting room , and hot drinks available, even at extra cost, downstairs, would have enhanced our stay. This was a minor problem though, and drinks were available in the rooms.
Food and service excellent. Owners and staff very friendly and obliging.

The shower was just a hand held showerhead over the bath so you really had to take a bath to have a wash.
