Good for the price.
Booked at the last minute. Quick and good communication from owner with instructions on self check in. A good priced hotel in a good place to tour the lakes. Breakfast excellent. Room clean and functional. Bed comfy. Parking, being good at reversing a must!

A lovely guesthouse with a lovely owner. It’s walking distance to everything in Keswick. Lots of information on walks etc provided. A fantastic cooked breakfast is included in the price. The only negative for me is the radiator in my room wasn’t as hot as my friend's room downstairs and I really feel the cold. Otherwise perfect.

Aldon, our host, was helpful and approachable. Our room had a great view of the mountains and the sunsets were beautiful. We had a bathroom in our room which was very convenient. Aldon prepars breakfast to suit the requests of the visitors staying with him and the meals were tasty and filling. I highly recommend this property.

Great place, perfect location, cracking breakfast and a welcoming feel. Only 10 mins walk to Keswick with dedicated parking and at a great price, this was an excellent find. Host could not have done any more - superb! Highly recommended.

Would not recommend
Wouldn’t recommend. Tired, old fashioned rooms.. with out of date biscuits. I found the owner intense and he insisted I pay cash, which caught me off guard as I like the guarantee my card brings. Owner insisted on an ETA first day and wanted to know my plans so he could decide where to park my car. Keys had to be left incase he needed to move it. Breakfast was poor. Cold bacon, old cereals, frozen bread I had to toast myself… I felt really let down. I left without breakfast the last day as I just couldn’t stomach it. Keswick is beautiful. This place isn’t.

It was a last minute booking, so there wasn’t a lot of choice. The accommodation needs a severe update , carpets, wallpaper all 70’s…. Nothing matched , carpets….what your parents had in the 70’ . Breakfast was ok. Host was friendly & very informative.

I prepaid for the 2 x night stay, Owner refuse to check me in until I paid for 2 x nights in Cash as he stated he hadn't received payment, I had an email confirming payment and offer a credit but he refused, stating Cash Only I had to look for alternative accommodation as I felt it was a scam

Single room review
Do check in around your eta given to Eldon, complications can arise I gather if this is not done. I booked on hotels.com and, believing I'd paid by card, arrived three days later...to find one of the first things I was told was that, 'you haven't been charged, we only take cash and there is an ATM at the nearest garage'. Just wondering what happened to my card details given over to Hotels.com. On arrival Eldon seemed brusque in welcome, this mellowed somewhat. OK - I'd agreed a single room with shared bathroom, but didn't expect it to be one and a half floors below my bedroom...3am visit not easiest... The bedroom was spotlessly clean, tho small and the breakfast was ok, lots of helpful laminated notes around to help use shower, breakfast booking system, car parking system. The carpark is very tight and exits onto two blind bends - I turned left and swung around the next bollards about 100m away if I wanted to go back down into Keswick. The outside look of the place is not helped by properties either side of it being renovated with all the usual builders materials and scaffolding etc. Other reviews of double rooms are more glowing, sorry I cant be more effusive about the single room at the top of the house.

Hidden gem
Superb location just on the edge of town but with the old railway path on your doorstep..Eldon the host was amazing and couldn’t do enough for you and made sure my stay was trouble free..onsite parking which is a bonus but I didn’t need it and the breakfast was a 10/10..price was very competitive also, the property was spotless and the room I had was a single with shared facilities but it had everything I needed..would I stay here..definitely
