Lovely house

We have been coming to Keswick for 23 years now and we can honestly say that this bungalow is the best place we have stayed in. It was spotless clean it had everything you needed and was close to the town. We’ve just booked for next year and years to come.

Another stay in Crosthwaite Gardens

Our 4th stay at this property and one of the best due to the fantastic bright but cold weather. It’s always warm and welcoming to return back to this lovely house. It’s ideally situated in a quiet street within easy walking distance of the town centre and we hardly used our cars during our stay.

Excellent cottage

A lovely cottage to stay in. Very well equipped kitchen if you wanted to cook during your stay and lots of plates, glasses, mugs and cutlery etc. The cottage was very clean and spacious. Excellent location, only a short walk into the centre of Keswick. Everything was good, just as described on Keswick Cottages website.

Great holiday home

The house was great, and suited us excellently. Everything we needed was there, it could not have been more comfortable or well equipped. The owners are to be congratulated on their thoughtfulness of the comfort of the visitors, and Keswick Cottages were so helpful in every way! ! We were blessed with the weather too!

Comfy Stay

We’ve had a lovely stay here. Comfy beds, great showers and toasty warm, especially since the Lakes lived up to it’s name by raining every day. The kitchen was also well equipped to eat in. Enjoyed playing the games they had there, watching a film on Netflix on the large TV or listen to music from the Google Dot or just reading. All in all an enjoyable stay but ordering sun next time!

A great place to stay

We really enjoyed our stay at Crosthwaite Gardens. The rooms were all very well furnished, the beds were comfortable, the lounge was large with comfortable settees and chairs and there was a very big screen tv with sky channels. The kitchen / dining area was spacious and light and all the appliances worked well and were easy to use. The garage had a full size table tennis table which we used a couple of times. The only comment we would make is that the bedrooms would have benefited from some curtains but this is a very small point.

Well equipped, comfortable, in a handy location

We had a great holiday in Keswick while staying at Crosthwaite Gardens, despite some rainy weather. The property was very clean, comfortable, warm, and well equipped for the four of us plus baby. It's only a five minute walk from the town centre, but is in a very quiet and peaceful location. Thoughtful extra touches were the provision of a waterproof OS leisure map, cool bag, plus other useful items. The driveway is plenty large enough for two medium size cars, but careful parking was required to allow either car to exit without moving the other. Keswick Cottages kept us very well informed with arrival and departure information and also contacted us proactively with information about an unexpected short power cut. The provision of a tablet in the property with links to house guides and local information was a great idea and much used!

A week of sunshine and birdsong for our 4th stay

This property ticks all the boxes for us . Clean, comfortable and in a peaceful location with off road parking. The “ Enjoy your stay “ box ( tea , coffee , biscuits etc ) was a welcome treat & much appreciated as was the useful mini household starter kit. Thank you to the housekeeper who looks after the property so well . Thanks also to the friendly, helpful , easy to contact team at Keswick Cottages . We were able to call in & say “hello “ in person. Even on a busy day they took the time to have a chat with us . Since our last visit the owners have changed the door / drawer fronts on the kitchen units . It was already light & bright but is now even more so . The new suite in the lounge is another superb enhancement with two reclining chairs . A week of sunshine, bird song and wild flowers . We enjoyed our stay and have already booked to return .

Great Holiday Home

We've stayed here a couple of times and it is always our preferred holiday home in the Lakes. Beds very comfortable and there's everything we need to hand, also in a nice quiet area of Keswick but within easy walk of the town centre. Have alreadys booked for next year!

Crosswaite Gardens. Dec 2022

This was our first holiday as a family with our one year old grandson. A Christmas present for us all and we loved the house it was perfect giving space, warmth and comfort to us all. Very well equipped and close to the centre and within easy walking distance of the beautiful countryside and mountains. A couple of maintenance and cleaning glitches but minimal. We hopefully will return. A slightly later check out would have helped especially as the check in wasn't until 4pm. (Albeit we know we could have paid extra for this). Getting everything together by 10am was a wee bit fraught. Other than than that we have made fabulous memories. Thank you.
Stayed 5 nights in Nov 2022
