An excellent Keswick Guesthouse

This is a great guesthouse in the centre of Keswick, an ideal location with access to all the walks direct from the doorstep. I had an excellent stay with the highlights being a friendly and attentive host, super clean room with a comfortable bed (big plus after a day out walking) and an awesome breakfast with loads of options. Highly recommend if you’re looking at visiting the area :)

Top quality B&B

Excellent, high quality B&B. The welcome and check-in set the tone for a first class visit. Our room was spacious, immaculate and comfortable. The breakfast choice was great, really liked the option to have a lighter avocado on sourdough as a change from the full English, which was also lovely! Thank you, we will definitely be back!!

What an amazing quiet and very comfortable B&B that is a few minutes walk from keswick town centre. The owners made me and my friend very welcome. They were first class super hosts. The breakfasts were superb and we were even treated to some yummy cake which was such a nice touch. I will definitely be staying again :)
