Fantastic house for group of 7 on an outdoor girls weekend. House furnished to high standard, bonus of so many bathrooms. Location is perfect for town and walks from the doorstep. We will definitely return. Off street parking which is hard to find in this area.

Hi, Fiona!
We're so glad that Ellergill hit the mark for your girls' trip!
Hopefully an annual tradition?
So many bathrooms is definitely a bonus, especially with bigger parties, especially in the Lake District, and especially on a girly vacation.
We hope to see you again soon!

Lovely house with ample parking
This is a well appointed house close to all amenities. It has everything you need for a large group. The house is well equipped and well presented. Comfortable beds, clean linen and lovely gardens that sadly we didn’t use as we had a little rain. Lots of space for people to sit together or have quiet time. Would definitely recommend

A great property in an ideal location
This was a brilliant property for week 3 of the Keswick convention, an ideal location in the centre of Keswick with parking too!
House was comfortable and ideal for 2 families sharing together.
Only complaint was the tin opener was useless and needs replacing!
Response from VrboOwner on 5 August 2025
Hi Sharon,
Thank you for your review. Ellergill is in a great location, very close to the town centre with all it's amenities and shops. Thank you for mentioning the tin opener, we will organise a new one. Our office is just in town so if you had given u a call we could have replaced it for you during your stay.

1 week rental for a 60th Birthday celebrations
We had an amazing time at Ellergill - genuinely cannot fault anything - house is very spacious and plenty cutlery / crockery and all the amenities needed
If anyone is visiting the area and have a group of around 10 then they will not regret booking Ellergill.
We booked the nearby Lizzick Hall for a lovely birthday meal which we would recommend also.
Perfectly located to allow plenty of lovely days and evenings spent in the gorgeous Keswick centre.
For nice meals we would recommend the pies in the always busy Dog and Gun, The Inn on the square for a classy cocktail, The back bar is always quieter when the main street bars are full at the weekend, and we had a gorgeous meal in the The Kings Arms (Although not cheap).
We didn't try the Wetherspoons as its the only non dog-friendly pub in the town (Company UKwide policy) but that obviously serves its purpose for those that prefer.
Response from VrboOwner on 22 December 2025
Hi, Paul,
Happy belated birthday! We're glad to have been part of the celebrations. It sounds like you've had a great time, and the weather has been much better the past few days!
Ellergill accommodates up to 10 adults, in two twin bedrooms, one double bedroom and two King bedrooms, over three floors. The property benefits from two reception rooms, perfect if you can't agree on what to watch on TV! This property has a dedicated parking area behind the house that could provide space for three or four cars. This is a rare feature so close to the town centre...
We're glad you've had such a lovely time, and we hope to welcome you for many more celebrations to come!

Excellent House for 2 families
We had a great stay at Ellergill. The location is brilliant. The house is very well equipped and very comfortable. We loved the fact they're were two lounging rooms and lots of shower rooms. The bike storage was an added bonus. We have booked again for next year.
Our only negative was the acoustics in the dining room were not good making it fairly unbearable to eat in there with children. They need to add some soft furnishings to help with the sound.

We have been staying in Keswick for 12 years and we have finally found the property that suits all our needs. As a family of 3 generations it is usually hard to please us all. Ellergill has the best location with excellent parking for us all. The house was the cleanest we have found and the fact each room had access to its own bathroom too. The kitchens facilities had everything we needed and the garden was a lovely secure space for our pooch. If I had to be picky the only one negative is the window in the kind size bedroom on the first floor doesn’t stay open so we used a log from downstairs for this. It was very warm when we was there so some fans would have been a nice extra too. We will definitely be booking here again and probably for every Keswick stay moving forward. Thank you

Thank you or your lovely review of Ellergill! We love to hear when we can tick every box for our guests. Ellergill is right in the centre of town so having the benefit of it's own parking is certainly an added bonus. The property is also close to Fitz Park which is a great place to walk your pooch. We hope that you come and stay with us again soon!

A week in Keswick at Ellergill
We had a wonderful week in Ellergill.
The property was clean and tidy on arrival and it was very useful to receive the little welcome box with tea and coffee and milk and biscuits.
There was plenty of space for everyone to enjoy themselves and we enjoyed sitting outside in the sunshine to eat our meals.
There were plenty of board games to keep the children amused along with a ping pong net, bats and balls, which they loved.
Two lounges both with Smart TV’s were an added bonus for a larger family.
There were more than enough bathrooms for everyone and the beds were comfy.
The location was brilliant for exploring the town and the shops and we were so thankful for the car parking spaces.

A Weekend in Keswick
I had a wonderful stay with friends in a fabulous Lakeland town. The property is well-furnished and clean with lots of period features. Comfortable beds, with all the bedrooms ensuite bar one, but with a large bathroom just outside the door. A well stocked kitchen, but it could've been useful if kitchen roll was supplied. It would've also been useful if there had been more than one toilet roll per bathroom. Other than that it was perfection. Fabulous walking, pubs and restaurants. Highly recommended.

A comfortable property in a great location.
We found the property clean and comfortable and it is in a fantastic central location to access all of Keswick's amenities. The decoration is in very good condition and the kitchen facilities allow for cooking a family meal with relative ease. A larger casserole dish and a larger pot with lid would have been helpful, but this is a minor grumble. The long benches in the dining area were not particularly comfortable to sit and chat after a meal and I suggest swapping these out for chairs with backs.
The private car parking spaces are a huge boon because parking in Keswick can be an issue. This allowed us to get out and explore the fells with no concerns about where we'd park when returning.
We had a very pleasant experience in Ellergill and would recommend to our friends and family.
