Stunning location

Ideally located just yards away from the footbridge over the Greta into Fitz Park. A beautifully decorated cottage, very comfortable and a great place to stay. Beds very comfortable, and having the sound of the river flowing by is just lovely.

A cosy cottage with in a scenic location.

Millbank is a homely cottage in a peaceful location. It was lovely to hear the cricket match going on in the park and the kids loved being so close to the river and play area. We would love to return one day.

Superb location

Cottage was pretty clean and reasonably well equipped but lacked a little in the comfort stakes. The sofa was small and the cottage needs more comfortable seating.

perfect location

Our second stay in this cottage. nice and clean, plenty of space and a good layout. Decent size front and rear garden for sitting out. perfect location for the park opposite , parking and shopping just around the corner. A nice quiet area away from traffic . ideal for dog walks straight into the park. The use of the long stay car parks in Keswick is ideal. Will hopefully be booking again for next year and would recommend to anyone.

A lovely clean and welcoming cottage in a fantastic location, with car parking just a stroll away. Great to have a front and rear garden to sit out and enjoy the views of the park. Everything you needed was in the cottage, so we are looking forward to another stay. Would recommend 100 %

Fairbank

A lovely cottage with every thing you need. Love Keswick and the location of this cottage was ideal. Only downside was the parking, not always a space in the nearest car park but we managed to park on the side road. Bath was not the easiest to get in and out of , could do with having a separate shower. Otherwise ideal especially being so close to the park for the dog to walk in and not far from the bus stops.

Third Visit to Fairbank!

We have become creatures of habit, staying at Fairbank for the third year in a row. It has everything we need in terms of being a delightful cottage with all the facilities we need, nicely furnished (plenty of wardrobe space) decorated and excellent heating and hot water which is a must in February. Its located directly opposite Fitz Park and the river so it has a beautiful view from the kitchen and master bedroom. For us its brilliant for taking the dogs out especially for a quick walk first thing in the morning and last thing at night! Fairbank is just a 5 minute walk from Keswick Town, which we love. Lots of shops, great restaurants and friendly pubs. Basically to us Fairbank is the perfect cottage for us. If we could we would live there! I would also like to mention that Keswick Cottages provided us with excellent service. I had to change my booking due to a work commitment after I had made my initial booking. They were very helpful.

Lovely cottage in great location.

Situated right next to Fitz park ( with access via a bridge) and a 5/10 min stroll to Keswick town centre makes the location ideal nearby car parking is provided. The small front and rear gardens allowed us to make the most of the sunshine whilst there and the accommodation was spot on. A well equipped kitchen and dining area. A good sized lounge downstairs and 2 good sized bedrooms upstairs and spacious bathroom. In the lounge was a cupboard with games,dvds,CDs and books. The whole property is freshly decorated, modern and very comfortable.

Lovely cottage ideally located

This was our 3 visit to this cottage. Nicely situated right on top of Fitzroy park and a 5 minute stroll into Keswick town centre. Kitchen is well stocked for anyone wanting to cook. We didn’t experience any problems with the WiFi. No parking with this property, however a permit is issued for the long stay car parks . Would definitely recommend to friends.
