It was a pleasant stay with our dog. The beautiful Fitz Park is just around the corner, so it is possible to go out for a nice walk with your doggy.

Excellent central apartment

Skiddaw View is an excellent apartment located within walking distance of the centre of Keswick. Very comfortable for 2 people with everything you could need for a short stay. So nice to have such a big comfortable sofa in an apartment for 2! Parking space waa a bonus too. Couldn't fault a thing apart from the low cloud obscuring the view of Skiddaw!! Having stayed in numerous places in and around Keswick, this is one we would definitely come back too.

Short three day stay

Excellent apartment in a fantastic location within the town. Immaculately clean and very comfortable with private parking. The only negative if being really picky, is to have the poles from the parking spot removed as it can be very tight.

Very nice stay in Keswick

Property very nice, well looked after. Lovely views of Skiddaw from flat so certainly lived up to it's name. Right in the heart of Keswick with easy access to Fitz park across the road for walkies with the dog. Staff very helpful when we had a bit of difficulty with the key safe on arrival. Someone came straight across to help. Would definitely recommend.

Very central with a nice view

A very comfortable and well presented apartment in the town centre with lovely views to Skiddaw. Everything was clean and fresh with tasteful decor. Handy parking space at the rear though no particular place to stop to offload at the front of the building. Well equipped property

Clean, comfortable and warm

The apartment was extremely clean and warm and very welcoming on our arrival. Bed was very comfortable, slightly disappointed it was only a double but still comfortable. Everything you could need in the kitchen and heating remained constant to keep apartment warm. Only negative point was the noise from stairs where people came in and out late at night as walls very thin.

Fantastic location!

We’ve just got back from our stay at Skiddaw view and we’re very impressed. The apartment is perfectly located in the centre of Keswick, we didn’t need to use the car at all over our long weekend which was a blessing! The apartment was perfect for myself, my partner and our dog and had everything we needed for our stay, with fantastic views. Lots of bars, restaurants and cafes nearby and a good starting point for walks of all abilities. I would particularly recommend Jaspers coffee house down the road for breakfast! Thank you for a lovely stay!

Good location well equipped flat with the bonus of parking space

This flat was in a great central location. It was comfortable and well equipped with all we needed for our stay. We did have a couple of minor issues which Rebecca and Antony of Keswick Cottages resolved quickly as they were very approachable and had a lovely helpful manner. There was scaffolding around the flats which we were made aware of prior to stay ,it did obscure view but did not disrupt our holiday . we had a great holiday and would certainly book this accommodation again in the future.

Skiddaw View

Lovely compact apartment in centre of Keswick. Lovely views from windows and all amenities close by. Flat had everything you need for a comfortable stay and the bed was very comfy too. The only thing that did not work was the Keswick cottages information tablet but that was not a problem at all as they keep in touch via email. An enjoyable 2nd trip to this apartment and the fifth time we have used Keswick Cottages.

Great Location

We stayed for a week at Skiddaw View , the apartment was very centrally located to all the Shops, bars & restaurants . We were traveling on a motorbike & there was parking at the rear . There were lots of walking nearby & a great bus service to many other towns if needed. The apartment was very clean, modern and cosy . Just what you need when it is raining outside . They also have an airing cupboard to dry your wet clothes ( very useful ) A great view of Skiddaw from your bed !! The staff at Keswick Cottages across the street were very friendly & helpful .

A comfortable flat

We had a lovely week staying at Skiddaw View. The flat was clean, comfortable and well-equipped, and in a very handy position close to town. One possible drawback to note is it is beside a busy (in the summer anyway) and therefore quite noisy road. It won’t bother everyone and even though it did wake me up, overall I liked the flat enough that I would stay there again. Keswick Cottages need to update their arrival information - you are met with numerous key safes beside the door and the information KC supply to identify the right safe is not correct - the key safe does not have a cover, and is not black (presumably because it no longer has a cover). Also the property iPad does not provide any useful info about the property except the day of bin collection.

Customer service

I just want to note that the customer service we received was absolutely excellent. From the moment we booked I felt that the people on the other end of the phone actually cared about our stay. Furthermore, just to enhance this, when we arrived, the television was broken , once it was reported we felt that Keswick Cottages did their upmost to rectify the issue in the most efficient and professional way possible. I’ve stayed in Keswick with all the holiday let companies but I’ve got to say that Keswick Cottages provide the most friendly , caring and professional service out of them all !! Well done to them !!!!

Skiddaw View

Excellent customer service from Keswick Cottages. Skiddaw View is a lovely first floor flat with great views to Skiddaw. Clean & comfortable it has a large bedroom with a comfortable bed & plenty storage. The hall shelving provided ample space for all the bits & pieces eg walking gear, dog toys etc. Specious clean bathroom with plenty hot water. The lounge & kitchen were quite small but perfectly formed. Lovely comfy sofa for an evening of Netflix. Fitz Park great for those early morning walks with our dog. Saturday is market day so lots of fresh food to fill the fridge & larder. Keswick has lots of lovely walks & we could have spent our whole week walking there but having a dedicated parking space gave us the freedom to go off to some of our other favourite walks Grasmere to Ambleside via Rydal Water (the Badger for refreshments), Coniston Lake (coffee at the Herdwick excellent biggest ever bacon buttie) and Hawkshead (the Little Ice Cream Shop). And many more places. Bonus, we managed to miss the one heavy downpour & had decent weather.

Convenient location, comfortable, nice views.

All windows face the same way, which means it gets hot in the sun, but on busy road, so don't want to open windows. Tablet for information has nothing about how to work things. Also, I accidentally logged out, while trying to find information about checking out, where to put rubbish, etc. and the tablet wouldn't allow me back in, so I had no info. The TV and hob took a bit of figuring out, with no info. The parking space is actually not that near the flat. Also, no info given about how to access the parking space which has a post in it! I did figure out that the other key provided infact unlocks the post to allow it to be laid flat, but it is a bit of a palaver having to work things out on arrival! There was very little disturbance from other residents and, apart from the traffic, it was quiet, comfortable and pleasant. Very convenient location for town, busses, walks etc.

The location close to the town and a short walk to Derwentwater is excellent, with the view of Skiddaw from each of the rooms perfect, would highly recommend to those looking to explore Keswick.
