This one of a kind house is truly something special and is a fantastic setting for creating amazing holiday memories together with family and friends.

Possibly the best located holiday cottage in the Lake District.

We booked this cottage because we like to take our two spaniels to nice places. This is the most dog friendly place we have ever been. Secure, large garden and stunning traffic-free walks literally from your doorstep.
We stayed late November when the ferry was not running, a round trip to Kewick in the car for shopping is at leat an hour so arrive well stocked.
If the weather gods play ball, watch beautiful reflections on the lake by day and the Milky Way at night.
Last but not least, Keswick Cottages were efficient, professional and a pleasure to deal with. Book direct for best price.

A lovely cottage in a fabulous location. Cottage quirky but comfortable. Isolated but connected to the outside by the bus and boat. Walks from the door. Did not use car all week. Would have liked to see more and nicer garden furniture and a corkscrew would not have gone a miss!

You can either catch the bus or boat to head into Keswick. Thank you for your comments about the garden furniture, we will pass this onto the owners. We hope you had a wonderful time and we hope to welcome you back. Best Wishes, Keswick Cottages

Fabulous cottage, stunning location. Enjoyed the hot tub but perhaps should have been included in the overall price of the accommodation and not as an extra. We found there were only 2 folding chairs for outside and needed couple more for older members of party to carry down to lakeside. Overall a really enjoyable week



A week of walking, swimming, and chilling

Our family had a great week, kept warm and relaxed, enjoyed the location and made the most of the local walking opportunities. Trips to Keswick for essentials or just mooching, and the women had a fine spa session at Lodore Falls.
Our spaniel had such a great time in the woods, up the hills, and in the waters of Derwentwater
Lucy convinced me to join her in lake dipping, which we did several times through the week … cold!!
We loved the space in the cottage, and the chance to be apart within the many “quiet spots” inside the cottage

Thank you so much for your review of Brandlehow! We're so happy you had a great week and were warm and relaxed. Brandlehow is situated just on the shores of Derwentwater making it a really special place to stay. We're so glad you made the most of the local walking opportunities and that you enjoyed the spa at Lodore. We love to hear your spaniel had a great time exploring too! You're braver than us doing the lake dipping when its so cold! We are so pleased you loved the space in the cottage and we hope to welcome you again! Best Wishes, Keswick Cottages

If you want isolation (save for a few walkers using the footpath), to use the lake and walk, and you don't care that there isn't a pub within walking distance, this is the house for you!

The furnishings are fine/good, although some table lamps downstairs would be a really nice addition to make it feel a bit cosier in the evenings.

We walked, swam and kayaked every day for 2 weeks in all weathers, and popped into Keswick frequently for food, shops and the lovely Alhambra cinema. You need a car - the house is down a long single-track lane.

Keswick Cottages are a pleasure to deal with, and responded well to every problem that came up.

Hi Susan, we are so happy to receive this lovely review about Brandlehow. We are so glad you enjoyed various activities whilst staying at Brandlehow. To be able to catch the Keswick Launch into Keswick is a great addition to this property if you want to leave your car for the day whilst you explore Keswick. Thank you for your comment about our customer service. We hope to welcome you back again soon.
