    Fantastic location in Keswick, opposite a Co Op and a 5 minute walk from a supermarket. We left the car and walked some incredible trails straight from the doorstep. Highly recommend for anyone wanting a central location to explore the Lakes.

    Great location in the centre of Keswick. All facilities were of a good standard and the layout downstairs made a small place feel large and comfortable. We'll probably steal some of ideas for our place!
