About this property

Causey View - a bungalow that sleeps 4 guests in 2 bedrooms

Having recently undergone comprehensive refurbishment to an exceptional standard this stylish bungalow is sure to impress with great attention to detail throughout and guest comfort at the forefront. The warm and welcoming open-plan living space is perfect for family and friends to come together for a sociable holiday. The lounge has two comfy sofas, easy chair, bespoke coffee table, and a cosy log burning stove to enjoy after a day on the fells.

The modern, well-appointed kitchen has all you would expect including an induction hob, large fridge freezer and integrated dishwasher, plus some indulgent little extras such as a Nespresso coffee maker.

The dining space includes solid oak dining table, six chairs, and Herdy placemats.

The two bedrooms, one with a king-size bed, the other with twin divans, have fitted wardrobes and oak furniture and come beautifully dressed with luxury linen and towels.

A spacious new bathroom, with separate bath and shower, completes the living space. Complimentary fast broadband is available throughout the property.

The back door leads to a utility room with everything you need to wash and dry your outdoor gear and there is additional locked storage (by arrangement) in the garage for bikes & kayaks.

With gardens to front and back and ample parking we hope our cottage is your perfect home from home. The back garden is a tranquil setting with picnic table and a beck on the boundary - the perfect place to relax and enjoy some sunshine.

Perfect place for a weekend get away

We had a lovely time at Causey View. The bungalow was much larger than expected, spotlessly clean and had everything you might need for your stay. Location is perfect for exploring the local area and the views from the property are stunning. We’ll definitely be back!

Hi Lauren, Thank you so much for your lovely review. We’re absolutely delighted to hear you had such a great stay at Causey View. It’s wonderful to know the bungalow felt so much bigger than expected and that everything was spotless and well equipped for your visit. The location really is perfect for getting out and exploring, and we’re so pleased you enjoyed those stunning views — they’re one of our favourite things about the property, both from inside and out. The interiors are designed to make the most of them, so it’s lovely to hear they made an impression. Thank you again for taking the time to share your feedback. We’d be thrilled to welcome you back to Causey View anytime. Best wishes, Keswick Cottages

Excellent all round

Great location with walks from the door. Local shop, pubs and cafes all close by. Furnished and decorated to a high standard. The only niggle was a slightly erratic TV.
Response from VrboOwner on 25 February 2026
Hi, Russell! Thank you so much for taking the time to leave this lovely review. We’re really glad to hear that you enjoyed Causey View’s brilliant location — having walks right from the doorstep, plus a handy shop, cosy pubs and cafés nearby, is exactly what makes that spot so special. It’s great to know you found the cottage furnished and decorated to a high standard too. We put a lot of care into making it feel warm, comfortable and welcoming, so your comments mean a lot. As for the slightly temperamental TV, thank you for mentioning it. Little niggles like that can slip through the cracks, and your note gives us the chance to put it right. We’ll get it checked so it behaves properly for future stays. We’re delighted you enjoyed your time at Causey View and really appreciate your feedback. Best wishes, Keswick Cottages

Great Cottage in Great Location

Really comfortable and cosy cottage that's well equipped. Location is great - really quiet and yet very close to local facilities as well as lots of walking. Views are also lovely.
Response from VrboOwner on 3 September 2025
Hi Janet, Thank you for your review. Causey View is in the lovely village of Braithwaite just outside of Keswick. Braithwaite has lots of great local amenities such as a village shop, 2 pubs and a café. There are plenty of things you can do right from the door step like bagging a couple of Wainwrights, Barrow and Grisedale Pike or for for the more adventurous there is Go Ape and Forest Segways up at Whinlatter Visitor Centre. Keswick is only a few mile walk away or a 5 minute car journey. We hope you ha a fantastic stay, whatever you got up to! Best wishes, Keswick Cottages

Ideal location for walks.

First time using 'Keswick Cottages' found them to be a 1st class independent family run company. Kept informed from start to finish with all the information that we needed for our holiday. Cottage is very comfortable with all the equipment that we required. Ideal location for walks/ places of interest.

Thank you so much for your 5-star review! We're so happy you found Causey View situated in an excellent location that being the village of Braithwaite.

Lovely enjoyable stay

What's not to like about Causey view. Well presented, clean property. Everything we could need was in the property. Comfy double bed, didn't use the other room. Specious cottage for us two. Stunning views and we love Braithwaite village. Home from home..we didn't want to leave!

Great Location and comfortable accommodation

Excellent location for local walks and basic amenities, great to walk to the bus stop for regular service to Keswick. The weather was cold so we found accommodation quite cold. Very clean and comfortable. Outdoor furniture could do with a refurbishment.

Another Great Stay

This was our 3rd stay at Causey View in the gorgeous village of Braithwaite. The location is wonderful with views of the fells and close to pubs serving food and bus stops nearby to visit surrounding areas. A fabulous area for walking access for Higher climbs and also gentle scenic walks. The property was immaculate and clean with everything you could need. The utility / drying room was much appreciated.

Cosy bungalow in the middle of Braithwaite

This bungalow is a great choice, it seems to be recently decorated so is smart and clean with a modern bathroom and kitchen, and large yet cosy living area and good size bedrooms. It has all the appliances you’d need, good heating and hot water, separate utility room/boot room and is within a couple of minutes walk to the village shop. Off road parking is a bonus. Communication with the owner to extend our stay was easy and well managed.
