Lovely cottage
We enjoyed an Easter break at Gilbert’s Warrant. It’s a traditional slate cottage, close to all the amenities in Keswick. The property was clean and homely, with everything you could need to enjoy your stay. There is no parking, but we found plenty of spaces nearby.

Lovely property
On the plus side, the property is well located, quiet (we stayed in February) and suitable for a short stay. It was well maintained, comfortable, clean and the kitchen was well stocked with plates, cutlery, pans etc, including salt and pepper. It has a small garden which would be lovely in the summer. On the negative side, the bed on the top floor creaks and is only suitable for 1 adult or 2 small children and the tap in the main bathroom is not secure, the whole tap moves when turned. We wanted to use the wood burner but they only provided 2 small logs and we ran out of toilet paper in the main bathroom. My main issue though was their communication as I had asked (on 3 different websites) whether we could book for 2 nights instead of 3 but I didn't receive a single reply and we ended up paying for 3 nights but only using 2! They must've received my messages because they did reply to a later query. Overall however, the property itself was a good standard and we would stay there again.
