We have stayed in Portinscale for the last 4 years, and this is easily the nicest accommodation we have booked.

The cottage is very well kitted out and furnished, the decking is a great bonus when the weather is decent, which it was for the duration of our stay. Very comfortable bed.

The only suggestions for improvement would be a bigger tv in the lounge, and it would be great if you could find a way to make the small garden at the front a bit more secure as there is nothing to stop dogs from going up the steps and onto the road.

Overall, we had a great stay at Fell View and have already booked up to come back next year!

Hi David, Thank you for your lovely review. Fell View in Portinscale is perfectly suited to those who want the advantage of a quiet village setting but close to town. It only take 20 minutes on foot to get in to Keswick or there is a bus that will take you right in to the town centre. We will pass on your comments regarding the TV and the front garden. We look forward to welcoming you back next year! Best wishes, Keswick Cottages

The property is modern and well equipped in an excellent location. We enjoyed great walks such as Catbells from the doorstep, whilst only being a short walk from the centre of Keswick with all of it’s amenities. We did find the access a little tricky, the staircase to the door is fairly steep if you have small children or elderly dogs with mobility issues. The decking is nice but could do with some plants or screening in order to separate it from the neighbours and make it feel more private. We did have some issues with cleanliness, dirty towel (probably missed in error), tissues left in drawers, large cobwebs in bedrooms and the floor under beds / sofas in need of a good clean. Nothing that can’t be rectified with a good “spring clean”. It’s a great weekend base, just wasn’t the correct property for us.

Fell View is a lovely cottage and even better than the photos on the website. It is more spacious than expected and has been renovated to a high standard. It is less busy than Keswick but only a few minutes away from it by car or a 20 minute walk away from all that it has to offer. We were there for the annual Convention and appreciated the short journey. The cottage is a great centre for exploring the Lakes with great local walks around Derwent Water or up Cat Bells or for going further afield. Keswick Cottages were very helpful and attentive to any requests.

Lovely property in a great location. Very well equipped and everything was to a high standard. The large parking to the rear was a real bonus, especially when it came to unpacking etc...
We managed you use the patio area, which was really nice and we really enjoyed eating our breakfast outside and enjoying some evening drinks on the patio.
The beds were comfy, it would have been nicer with lighter weight duvets, as the heavy weight ones in 29 degree heat was a bit much !

It was our first stay in the lakes and the property is everything we wanted and more.
The property included everything we needed with lot of added extras.
Locations is a gorgeous short walk from Keswick, meaning you can enjoy the business of Keswick or a stroll around the water but return to a quiet place. The outdoor space to the property is perfect if you’re lucky like us to have a few days of sun enjoying breakfast outside or a drink under the stars.
Plenty of parking space and easy to travel around the lakes.
Thank you for an amazing property to make a perfect weekend

Stayed for 3-nights midweek in early May and Fell View cottage was perfect for two of us (but would happily take four). Tasteful decor, clean and comfortable in all respects and in a great location (within easy reach of local Farmer's Arms pub!) Adjacent car-parking always a bonus in a small village and the outside deck enjoyed almost day-long sunshine (luckily for us, shine it did!) Facilities all good - including well-equipped kitchen. Beds comfortable, efficient shower in spacious bathroom. Useful wifi (but almost non-existent mobile phone signal.) Small TV in lounge, comfy sofas and a log-burner (we couldn't get it to work very well!) All in all a great stay, made more so by an excellent team at Keswick Cottages, who were on-the-ball; responsive; friendly; professional and efficient with plenty of useful communication. Thanks for an enjoyable stay!

We have been coming to Portinscale for a number of years. Fell View had everything we needed, it was cosy with the log burner going after a soggy walk. The little touches such as dog treats made it feel that our dog was welcome. We will be returning. Thanks for a wonderful few days

Upon walking through rear door into boot room it felt warm which gave a welcome home feeling.
Lounge is clean comfortable and very cozy.
Being unsure of log burner operation caused some initial problems lighting fire, some instructions as to which vent was which would have helped
Feeling of warmth and welcome continued upstairs with a well appointed bathroom and really good shower.
We know the area well and fortunately we had good weather for our break and took full advantage of the cottages ideal location.

Thank you for the terrific 5* review! We are so delighted that you enjoyed your stay at Fell View for your birthday weekend. We're glad you made the most of the fire, there's nothing better than cosying up by the log burner on a chilly Winter's day! We hope to host you again for another Lakeland break.

Such an amazing stay at Fell View. We loved the cottage and it's location was perfect for us, walks from the door and an easy walk into Keswick. The boot room was a god send for our boots and coats, and the rest of the cottage was so cosy, beds extremely comfortable, shower was lovely. Off road parking was great too. Wish we could have spent longer there and we will definitely be back.

Recently spent four nights in Fell View. The property is very clean and has everything you need, there is a porch as you go in the back door which is really handy for coats, bags, shoes etc. The property is in a good position for walking along Derwentwater and a pleasant 20 min walk to the centre of Keswick,

Fell View is a beautiful, pristine cottage. Everything is high end from the crockery to the bedding. It is extremely comfortable and homely. The location is great, a 20 minute walk into Keswick for supplies, pubs, restaurants etc. I would definitely stay again. I have to give a shout out to Keswick Cottages who were brilliant. We had a small issue that needed sorting. They answer the phone every time (a real person!) and got back to us with a solution quickly. I would book through Keswick Cottages again next year as I also like that they are local.
