“Excellent location, good accomodation” Excellent service and information from Cottage Holiday Group in relation to booking and access to property. Cottage is located in a beautiful setting although access is via a very bumpy lane! Cottage is very well equipped and comfortable. Only complaint is that although interior of cottage was obviously cleaned prior to arrival, there needed to be some exterior cleaning - cobwebs above front door do not create the best first impression! However, we have no hestitation in recommending to future guests.

“Perfect Lakeland Base, Keswick UK” The place was perfectly located in a quite road within walking distance to Keswick and the Lake. Everything we needed was provided, and a nice surprise was the free WiFi. It was a perfect base for exploring the local fells, and the views from the kitchen and main bedroom were to die for. Adequate heating ensured a warm evening. Highly Recommended!

“Nice looking, but some of the quality not great” The layout and size of the accommodation was lovely. We were staying during a very cold snowy week and the place felt warm and comfy all the time. One issue was the very creaky floor and stair. There was hardly anywhere to stand that didn't creak, which in a new build isn't good. Also the doors didn't stay shut. Our 2 year old was able to get into everywhere because none of the door catches worked.

“the best holiday experience...ever, scenery...breathtaking.” tutheren lodge was excellent, everything you could need provided and more. the location was perfect only a ten minute walk from town. i came on holiday for peace and quiet after the passing of my son and i certainly got it! the surroundings were breathtaking. there was nothing i disliked about my holiday and i will definately be back!

“wonderful” every you needed was there in the property very clean tidy and welcoming the pub next door was a boon as well

“Clean, light and lovely!” Have been coming to Keswick for years but this flat rates as one of the very best. It was so light and airy with beautiful views to the hills/mountains. Everything was spotless and the flat was so well equipped. We liked it so much that we decided to stay an extra few days! With it being so early in February no-one had booked the following week and we were able,with the help of the lovely lady in the Keswick office,to do just that.

“Lovely property, great location, warm welcome.” Stockwell Hall Cottage was immaculately presented, well equipped and excellently furnished, located in a tranquill setting enjoying views of the countryside and surrounded by animals and farmland. The owners provided a botle of wine, a freshly baked cake, eggs, bacon, milk, butter and bread, and two vases of fresh flowers. We had a thoroughly relaxing time, and were only a short drive from Keswick, Penrith and Carlisle, an excellent base for touring without the hussle and bussle of being nearer to the heart of the Lake District. Perefect! Would like to stay again.

“Excellent accomodation in a lovely position” Greta Mill is a beuatifully kept property, well equipped and set out to welcome us. All local info was provided in a welcome note, with a bottle of wine in the fridge and a plate of cakes to start our holiday. Even the dogs had a jar of treats supplied! The house is tastefully decorated and furnished and a delight ot stay in. Situated opposite a large park it was perfectly located and there were some good walks to be had in the vicinity. Shopping centre was about 5 minutes walk away and we found Keswick a delightful town. The only thing I missed was a decent, sharp knife for cooking purposes and a cheese grater, so would recommend anyone to take their own; a very minor point! Also worth noting that the beds are doubles in three of the bedrooms, so if you're travelling with friends make sure they are good ones! We all loved the hot tub and it was perfect to fall into after a few hours of hill walking! Would definitely go again.

“Excellent accomadation” The apartment was lovely and clean and had everything we needed, and was very comfortable indeed, it is in a small shopping centre and by a pub but there was no noise to disturb us, all the shops and restaurants at hand no need to use the car, having the car park pass was great there was no need to worry about paying parking fees and clock watching in case your ticket ran out. We would recommend that when you arrive for your stay, and have collected the keys, park in the short stay car park Bell Close Brewery Lane as it is defiantly a lot easier and a lot shorter to carry your luggage to the accommodation, then after park in the long stay using the car park pass, it took us quite a time to work this out, as we did not know the area

“Cosy cottage” Had a great short break in November in Banks Place. Cottage is cosy with fab woodburner, amazing jacuzzi bath and central to everything you need in Keswick. The cottage is very near for amazing mountain walks - I enjoyed a great walk up Skiddaw with blue skies and a light covering of snow which I will remember for a long time. I definitely plan to return to this cottage in the future.

“This cottage is compact, comfortable and well equipped, a little” We have booked with Lakes Cottage Holidays before and again everything was simple & very straightforward. The cottage was warm, compact and had everything we needed for our weekend away with the dog. It has been renovated to a high standard, comfortable and tasteful furnishings, heating was easy to control, as was the shower. It was located close to the town centre, just a short walk away, we love Keswick and feel its our second home! We hope to return to this lovely cottage again soon.

“Spacious, clean and well positioned holiday home” Hunter's Chase is a large, modern well equipped house, ideally positioned for visiting the Northern Lake District. We visited with a large, mixed age group of 9 from an 8 year old to Grandad in his 80s. All of the bedrooms were well appointed with plenty of storage space. A total of 4 bathrooms plus a downstairs cloakroom meant there were no arguments or queues for the toilet! The two main bedrooms were equipped with large flat screen tvs as well as the lounge. We also made good use of the wi-fi in the house. The kitchen was newly fitted and very well equipped with every type of crockery, cutlery and cooking implement you might require as well as a dishwasher and a large fridge freezer. It's located in a lovely village (although we never tried the pub) with the actual position being very quiet with views over fields and a large garden good for playing ball games. Pooley Bridge nearby has several pubs and a lovely beach by the river and Penrith, also not far away, is a traditional market town with facilities including a swimming pool, cinema and the normal array of supermarkets.

“No hesitations about recommending archers..” ... except it might get too busy to re-book it again! Having stayed in a different cottage for a number of happy visits to Keswick, my first stay in archers was a reluctant change - but i was more than satisfied, and look forward to returning if i ever have the opportunity to work in the Lakes again. Comfortable, cosy, well-equipped. Great location for being central to shops, but easy access for walks, cycling etc...

“Excellent building, appartment and grounds, unsure about the loc” The building and the grounds are excellently maintained, clean and well presented; the room was spacious, comfortable and well equipped with washing machine and tumble dryer, dishwasher, cooking facilities and excellent shower and bathrooms. Although the building is divided into a number of appartments we still had a great level of privacy and our stay was not affected by any other residents. The only negative for our party was the location. It was not as close the the town centre of Keswick as we thought. It is around a 25 minute walk to the main shops and pubs and we were making this trip (there and back twise per day), driving was out of the question as we were spening our nights in the pubs. In addition to this the long, secluded drive approach to the accomodation is badly lit (i.e. no street lighting at all) which meant without a torch it was pitch black. This coupled with the rough, non existent tarmac / paving on the drive could become hazzardous, especially in icy weather as it was at the time. The only other suggestion I would make would be to improve the directions provided when booking, it took us at least half an hour driving around the area, with which we are all unfamiliar, until we found our way. Overall though I would recommend the cottage to friends and family, depending on their intentions whilst in the area. If this was to spend the day out, but the evenings and nights in the cottage relaxing I would strongly advise this location.
