Was a great place for me and my friends to stay in the Lake District. Very cozy rooms and good furniture. No problems at all, I recommend highly!

Beautiful spacious cottage, good location, as we were staying for the nearby triathlon in Keswick. Two high spec bathrooms, one on each floor, was appreciated. Really lovely open plan kitchen/diner/lounge with comfy sofas.
Downside was the patio area has been dug up so there was nowhere to sit out and the farm dogs roam around, leaving a mess. Also it's a long drive down the farm track!

Really easy arrival with a key safe. We okayed having an extra car before arrival and this was easily accommodated by the owners. The cottage interior was very comfortably furnished and welcoming, and had everything we needed for our stay. The beds were very comfy!
The dog walk from the door was lovely, it would have been nice to have had a seating area outside the cottage but we managed without. There’s a quality farm shop 20 mins walk away and the Troutbeck Inn is a 5 min drive away for an excellent evening meal. The cottage is situated within a working farm; very tranquil and off the beaten track with beautiful vistas. We wish we had booked for longer!

Lovely place, comfortable beds. A little remote for our liking but it was peaceful. Upstairs shower tends to flood so needs looking at. No washing machine which could be a problem if staying longer than a weekend. We didn’t order towels but they were on the beds which was a bonus

Very spacious living accommodation, close to Keswick and many walking/swimming/kayaking spots. The pub in Troutbeck was lovely for an evening meal (good vegetarian choices) and within walking distance. The house has been tastefully decorated and provides a good, comfortable base.

We enjoyed staying in this lovely cottage. It is located on a farm, in a courtyard. Surrounded by fields. Easy access to the A66, close to both Keswick and Penrith. The cottage is lovely, very clean, with all basics provided. The dining and living area are nice. The shower and bathrooms are new and nice. There is a small garden, but it is shared with the other cottages and there is no outdoor seating.

Our first stay at Cragside Cottage and we weren't disappointed. We've used Keswick Cottages for many years and always stayed in Keswick, but we now have a dog and needed a dog-friendly property so decided to give this a go.
The cottage was warm and welcoming on arrival. We found the large hallway very useful and loved the open plan living area upstairs. A well-equipped kitchen with everything you'd need. The only issue we found was with the dishwasher as the dinner plates were too big so that you couldn't push in the bottom basket. We just lay them down instead so not a massive problem.
Our teenage kids appreciated the huge TV, having Netflix, comfy settees and having a double bed each, not to mention having WiFi! The beds were very comfortable.
A newly fitted bathroom (we assumed as still slightly unfinished) was v smart and the shower was good tho not the most powerful. We didn't use the upstairs shower so can't comment.
Some hooks on the back of bathroom and bedroom doors would be useful for hanging towels to dry perhaps? We found a clothes airer (in the bathroom cupboard) which was a Godsend as we had a v wet week so we're able to get our walking gear dried easily.
Overall we thoroughly enjoyed staying here and found the location v good as not far from Penrith (about a 10 minute drive) and a 15 minute drive to Keswick. It's definitely worth the short walk up to Greenaugh Crag behind the cottage for the wonderful views!
I can definitely recommend this property and would happily stay here again.

Lovely and quiet; good amenities , especially Penrith supermarket only 15 minutes away..Loved the large Tv in the main lounge to watch the sports on. Only downside was the lack of a washing machine , especyou are clambering up hills. ( had to wash my husbands outdoor gear in the bath , then squeeze the surplus water and let it dry over the bath). Thankfully, I took loads of T shirts and under wear. The parking was nice and straight forward. My husband commented how comfortable the beds were. We all enjoyed the stay and it was so good to visit Ullswater nearby. Needs a little TLC, otherwise lovely; a hidden gem . Best wishes from , Julie and Derek Longson, Cheadle,
