Best cottage stay yet

Absolutely beautiful property. Every possible need catered for. Beds very comfy, showers amazing ! Dog free, so lovely to have very comfortable lounge furniture ( not leather ) would certainly come again. One problem might be if a future party arrived with 2 cars. Not enough room on drive.

Holiday in Keswick

We have stayed at this property several times now and never failed to be impressed. The owners are constantly improving the furniture and outside of the house to very high standards. The property is so lovely and warm day and night. The location could not be bettered.Off street parking with driveway and gates, perfect!! Mustn’t forget the table tennis in the garage which is fabulous. Just a 10 minute walk and you are in the centre of Keswick which is such a lovely town with lots of great shops and restaurants! We definitely will be back.
Response from VrboOwner on 1 April 2026
Hi, Richard! Thank you so much for another wonderful review — it really means a great deal to us to welcome you back time and time again. We’re delighted to hear that Crosthwaite Gardens continues to impress and that you’ve noticed the care and effort the owners put into continually improving both the house and the outdoor space. It’s lovely to know you found the property warm and comfortable throughout your stay, and we couldn’t agree more about the location — it really is hard to beat. Having secure off?street parking with a driveway and gates is such a bonus in Keswick, and we’re glad it made your stay even easier. And of course, the table tennis table in the garage always puts a smile on our faces — we’re so pleased it added to your enjoyment! Being just a short walk from the centre of Keswick, with all those great shops and restaurants, really does make it the perfect base, and hearing that you’ll definitely be back is the biggest compliment we could ask for. We very much look forward to welcoming you again on your next visit. Best wishes, Keswick Cottages

A 5 star property expertly managed by a 5 star company

Our 6th stay at this warm , comfortable home from home . If we could award 6 stars we would . Kept in pristine condition by the super star housekeeper . Owned by kind , generous people who seem to really care about the wellbeing of their guests. Sarah and the team at Keswick Cottages manage the property in an efficient and friendly way. We actually called in at their office to say hello and , as always , were made very welcome. We have already booked our next stay . Property positives …. Quiet location , off road parking, within walking distance of ….. Keswick town centre , shops , parks , bus stops and good footpaths . No negatives whatsoever.

Crosthwaite has a lovely home-from-home atmosphere and is set in a peaceful cul-de-sac, perfect for a relaxing break away.

Great Property

A wonderful stay in a very comfortable and cosy property which offered everything one could ask for including onsite parking for one car. It's location is absolutely perfect being a few minutes walk from Keswick, along with at least 4 lovely parks close by all of which are fabulous for dogs. The Keswick Cottages team are very friendly and efficient. Sadly, we understand the owners will not permit dogs onsite for any new bookings, so we'll seek alternative accommodation in the area.

Lovely week at Crosthwaite Gardens

Had a lovely week away staying at Crosthwaite Gardens. On arrival the property was very clean and well equipped with everything we needed for our stay. The location is excellent in a very quiet street but just a few minutes walk into Keswick town centre where there are numerous good places to eat and drink . We are regular visitors to Keswick and know how hard it is to find a property with off street parking and a garden space to enjoy. Crosthwaite gardens was perfect for our holiday and we have already booked again for next year.

Our 5th stay

Another enjoyable stay in this lovely property. We appreciate the quiet location with good off road parking. The owners have put a lot of thought and effort into the property. It is kept spotlessly clean by the housekeeper. The friendly, helpful team at Keswick Cottages manage the property well . Local is the key word here . We called into their office and had a chat with Sarah . We have already booked a return visit in 2026.

Hi Caryl, Thank you for your lovely review. We love to hear from guests that return to us year after year and love the properties they stay in.

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.
