Very well kept and spotless throughout. Lorraine and Simon made us feel welcome from the second we arrived. Really lovely couple. The rooms had everything you would need for the stay, beds were comfortable, as the weather was hot a fan was provided. Breakfast was delicious, excellent quality and good selection. There is seating in the front garden to sit in the fresh air. Excellent location as it is only a few minutes walk into the town centre and about10-15 minute walk to derwentwater lake, beautiful place. I would 100% stay again and would recommend it. ##### Julie Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Andrew 3 Jul 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities I was there for 2 nights. Good breakfast both mornings, very clean room and bathroom. My only issue was with the bathroom. Sink very small with a small glass shelf just above it. Therefore very little space to wash face or shave. Moving this shelf to the left or placing it on the opposite wall would have solved the problem very easily. ##### Andrew Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mary 12 Oct 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Lorraine and Simon are wonderful hosts.

Hostess was friendly and communicative. Property very clean. Reasons for four stars instead of five include the size of the room and bathroom (quite small), and the very limited time for breakfast (1/2 hour window). ##### Katherine Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Rita 13 Sept 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Excellent staff!

Fantastic B&B close to the centre of Keswick. Would give 6 stars but app limited to 5. Super clean, super comfortable bed, one of the best nights sleep I've had away from home. Shower nice and powerful. Hosts Lorraine & Simon very hospitable and welcoming. Thank you. ##### Brian Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Andrew 1 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Wonderful hosts. Great breakfast. Incredibly convenient to town. ##### Andrew Stayed 2 nights in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### s 4 Dec 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Love staying at Dorchester House. Lorraine is such a wonderful host, always helping with any information we need and goes out of her way to help me with storing my luggage before checkin and after checkout.The location is fantastic, just next to the Town centre and bus stops. The street is well-lit and safe to roam even when dark. The room is super cosy and the bedding is clean and so comfortable that my kids would love sleep-in instead of going out and about. The breakfast is delicious and Lorraine makes sure they are served hot. The lake is just 10mins walk and there are many dining options. I cant recommend this place enough and Lorraine and Simon are the best hosts. Thank you for giving us such a lovely stay in Keswick!❤️ ##### s Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Walter 27 Sept 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Very comfortable guest house.

The B&B is situated on a quiet residential road near the town centre with parking avaible on the roadside. We found our room well furnished, clean and spacious with a good ensuite bathroom. One can choose from a variety of breakfast items including full English, porridge, etc, all freshly prepared in the morning. Simon and Lorraine do a great job running their guesthouse and long may that continue. ##### Jacob Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jan 7 Aug 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities people great. area in the middle of everything.
