Keswick hotellia

Plussat: Breakfast lovely and friendly hosts

Miinukset: A bit out of the way not much to do locally

Plussat: The location was spectacular, the house was beautiful and immaculate. The owners were welcoming and their local knowledge was invaluable, and their breakfasts were delicious.

Miinukset: Nothing, it was lovely

Plussat: Everything was spotlessly clean and the room was bright, big enough and well equipped. Lovely rain shower and as the hotel owner Helen said, it really did give you a hug! Really friendly hosts and they always appeared when you returned after being out for the day to offer you a cup of tea and some of their home made cakes. Amazing breakfast, to be fair the best I have had. Fantastic location with two excellent pubs within 5 mins walking distance. Highly recommend and we will be back!

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Every care taken to make us feel welcome! Including lovely fresh shortbread & pot of tea upon arrival.

Plussat: Friendly hosts who made us feel like we had known them for years. And of course the home made shortcake!

Miinukset: Everything was fine

Plussat: Fabulous guest house with wonderful welcoming hosts, great food and comfortable beds in a stunning location. Thanks you so much to Phil and Helen - we would recommend Hermiston to anyone, and can’t wait to come back. If you’re looking for a guest house in the Lake District, stop looking now, and book in here - you won’t regret it!

Plussat: Excellent level of service. Great tips on visits to surrounding area.

Plussat: Phil is a really nice guy and superb host. He kindly helped me plan a one-day-trip around Keswick and the north part of Lake District which was fantastic. I wish I could check in earlier instead of investing too much time in the south part of Lake District. Anyway, definitely will be back

Plussat: Excellent location just outside Keswick town, easily walkable. Friendly staff and 1st class breakfast

Miinukset: Room was smaller than expected.

Plussat: Warm, friendly and accommodating staff. Clean and well located.

Miinukset: I couldn't fault anything.

Plussat: Perfect stay! The owners were incredibly friendly and welcoming and we couldn’t fault our stay at all. It’s also in the perfect location with gorgeous views of Derwent Water. We will definitely be returning.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Lovely hosts, comfortable room and lovely breakfast.

Plussat: Craig & Clare Dalton were very welcoming and indeed very accomodating throughout my stay. I was recieved with a warm welcome and indeed was sent on my way with kind words. I would recomend this guesthouse for it's expansive breakfast and quite location but within easy reach of Keswick.

Plussat: Excellent hosts, amazing breakfast with a lot of choice, warm, friendly family atmosphere, spotless. Can not find any faults.

Miinukset: Nothing.

Plussat: Wonderfully clean. Good breakfast.

Miinukset: Poor parking arrangements

Plussat: The location can't be beat! The room was spacious and well appointed, and the large freestanding tub was amazing! Very comfortable bed. Breakfast was fine; we didn't partake of the English breakfast but the cereal and toast were sufficient.

Miinukset: Only real complaint was that the room was warm without any way to cool it down in the evening. Wish the breakfast had a little more variety but, again, it was fine.

Plussat: Lovely breakfast with variety

Miinukset: Timing of check in not easy. Couldn't have shower when arrived because couldn't turn shower on. No lift or help with heavy case. Bed too hot.

Plussat: parking permit was a saving, staff where extremely friendly and location was fantastic.

Miinukset: nothing

Plussat: Location was great,breakfast was brilliant

Miinukset: Next doors toilet cistern was very noisy

Plussat: We have been before so location was great as expected. Breakfast was excellent as before although we missed Lindsays cheerfull personality this time.

Miinukset: only the weather really.

Plussat: Great location, lovely views great breakfast and really pleasant staff.

Miinukset: The weather but that can't be helped.

Plussat: location, the views from our corner room, the helpful and nice proprietors and staff, the delicious breakfast

Plussat: Location next to small village with pubs and shop. Easy to walk onto the hills straight from the door. Excellent freshly cooked breakfast and delicious fresh fruit salad and homemade jams etc. Really comfortable bed and very clean throughout. Kate made us feel very welcome. I J no

Miinukset: Didn't see any seating in garden and no residents lounge for rainy days.

Plussat: Kate meet us and from that moment we were made feel welcome and at home. Her thoughtful touches were special including cake to have with your evening coffee or tea. The rooms were supplied with top quality accessories including bathroom. Breakfast was high quality with special touches of home made jam etc. close to great little village pubs and near Keswick for tourist attractions. Keswick is close however you are aware from the tourist area.

Miinukset: Nil

Plussat: The views were excellent from the window. Kate was very welcoming and made sure you had everything you needed. Breakfast choice was excellent and the fresh fruit beautifully prepared. The room was lovely and the bed very comfortable.

Plussat: Good though communication prior to the stay. Kate was waiting with umbrellas to assist with our luggage from the car. As we took Peggy (cockapoo ) Kate was fully prepared with dog towels, poop bags and everything else we may have needed to assist with ensuring the lovely house was kept to its clean high standard . Beautiful views and a great location and a delicious breakfast all contributed to a wonderful stay in the Lakes.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Great location. Warm welcome and helpful advice on the area from the owner. Excellent breakfast, and afternoon cake. Excellent tea/coffe facilities in room. Excellent evening meal facilities within easy walking distance.

Miinukset: Nothing.

Plussat: The attention to detail both humans and dogs were catered for to perfection. Breakfast was excellent and sausages for the dog a really nice touch.

Miinukset: Two flights of stairs!! Would have preferred a lower level room.

Plussat: From the moment you enter you are treated like part of the family, the house is warm and friendly and is set in the most beautiful scenic setting. There is that extra mile of customer service staying at the maple bank house. From you’re unique room to a very knowledge Kate to a fresh hot breakfast! Worth every penny and would return . Thank you

Plussat: Loved everything. Super friendly host. Comfort, and the little extras were excellent. VERY dog friendly. Our best B AND B of our 2 week trip.

Miinukset: Had to leave too soon!

Plussat: Welcoming helpful owner and staff lovely. It felt like home from home and the food was superb. Beds comfy, lovely room, well stocked room with everything we needed. Lots of info regarding walks/ places to go. I can't think of anything that was missing. I would definitely recommend. We took our Labrador and there were other dogs visiting too. We shall be back at some point I'm sure. Thank you Maple Bank!

Plussat: Beautiful setting with magnificent views. Rooms were very clean and tidy and toiletries were excellent. Fabulous varied breakfasts and everything you wanted to know or do was covered by Kate.

Miinukset: Nothing at all.

Plussat: Our host was very friendly and helpful. Sharon (our host) even organised a lift for us to our restaurant when it was raining. The B&B is well located and parking was no problem. Our room was spotlessly clean and evrything we needed was there. The breakfasts were wonderful and Sharon makes her own vegetarian sausages - which are delicious.

Miinukset: There was nothing we didn't like and we were sorry to have to leave.

Plussat: Brilliant breakfast Comfy clean bed

Plussat: The owner was very helpful and friendly. The breakfast was plentiful and tasty. The room light, airy and very comfortable.

Miinukset: The location was ok, a 20 minute walk from Keswick centre. Parking was quite limited and down the street opposite.

Plussat: Room was lovely as was the property in general. Breakfast was very good with lots of choice.

Miinukset: Only tiny downside was lack of storage space in the room,but for a 2 night stay it wasn’t a massive problem.

Plussat: Excellent choice at breakfast friendly owners gave us good tips for places in town to eat

Miinukset: Could of had a slightly bigger room but we was only there for two nights so was adequate

Plussat: The location was brilliant and met all of our needs. The room was gorgeous and the breakfast was utterly faultless. However, the thing that really made our stay special was the couple who ran the venue. They were friendly, they gave us fantastic advice such as where to eat and hike, and they went out of their way to help us. Highly recommend staying here. I know we will next time we are in the area

Plussat: Rooms, clean and comfortable. Sharon the owner was superb. Breakfast lovely.

Plussat: Very enjoyable breakfast, friendly people to chat to.

Miinukset: loved everything

Plussat: Excellent breakfast, good parking, powerful shower, good price.

Miinukset: Compared to the excellent finish of the rest of the B&B, our bathroom was very tired. The B&B is also quite far from Keswick centre.

Plussat: Lovely Guest house ,clean , lovely breakfast the best we have had in keswick! Friendly people .

Miinukset: Everything was great no complaints.

Plussat: Everything,we our hosts couldn't do enough for us. Breakfast was great especially the Greek yogurt.

Plussat: Best breakfast of our trip. Jenny was very helpful with advice on getting around / boat trip / restaurants.

Miinukset: No complaints about anything.

Plussat: Done the way it should be done.

Plussat: Comfortable room/beds with nice towels and bed linen. Very powerful shower. Excellent breakfast!

Miinukset: Little further out of Keswick town centre than anticipated, but still only 20 min walk.

Plussat: Very helpful, congenial, and pleasant location and staff - we also fell in love with the dog Bryn. We wanted to take him with us. All in all, a delightful place, people, and time.

Plussat: The owners were lovely, gracious and helpful. Excellent cooks too! Pretty much everything about it was very good to excellent and we greatly enjoyed our stay there and I'd be more than happy to stay here again next time I'm in the Keswick area. Rooms. 7/10 Size : Reasonable size, perfectly acceptable. Very clean. Coffee and tea (Taylor's Breakfast - excellent / strong) making facilities. There's a small coffee table and two chairs on which to sit and sip tea. There's a small wardrobe. However no fridge or safe box. Carpeted floors with a tray on which to place muddy boots. Bed 8/10 : we had a twin and the beds were a nice size for singles. Mattress was very comfortable, firm enough whilst still soft. We slept well on them. AC 7/10 : None but the heated radiators worked well (and heated towel rack) and the window opened over the garden for fresh air. Bathroom 8/10 : the shower pressure and water temperature were good, with a constant temperature. Towels are plenty, man sized and soft. Room is big enough. Location 7/10 : It's a longish walk into town (15-20 mins) however since you can park free of charge anywhere on the side streets close to town, and there is a small car park attached to Woodside B&B, we found it very convenient to park at the B&B at night (room for 4-5 cars and free of charge), drive around during the day and park in the side streets close to the centre whenever we went into town. Breakfast 10/10 : needs a special mention. The owners make their own granola and yogurt and both are superb. With a large bowl of mixed berries and other fresh fruit and many options of cooked breakfast, this is amongst the best breakfast you will find anywhere. Even compared to 5 star hotels (of which we've stayed in plenty), which may have even more, or exotic choice, but likely not this quality.

Miinukset: There was nothing we didn't like.

Plussat: Great breakfast and really nice owners,easy walking distance to Keswick

Plussat: Friendly staff

Miinukset: Liked everything

Plussat: Simon and Lorna were very friendly and informative about walks and the local area. Great value for money. Pet friendly and will be visiting again.

Plussat: Lorna was the friendliest host we've met yet in our travels, absolutely delightful. Comfortable room with tasty little snacks and hot drinks. Modern, clean bathroom, lovely white linens, quiet and cozy. Fantastic cooked to order breakfast, variety of choices plus everything else you could need or want to eat. Wish we could have stayed longer!

Miinukset: Very busy traffic on the street, so watch your children and dogs when coming and going! But that can't be helped by the hosts...

Plussat: Everything was perfect for us during our stay.

Plussat: Friendly owners with 1st class local knowledge , Excellent Breakfast

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Very friendly made us well come.we enjoyed breakfast the accommodation was spotless.we would recommend this B&B to our friends.

Miinukset: Hmmm.... nothing.

Plussat: The rooms were were supplied with everything you needed. The owners went above and beyond with services. They even washed our clothes for us. The breakfast was very good and were were given tips on sites to visit.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: The breakfast spread is so good. I like the Lake District radio channel. So waking up to the music from the channel and the breakfast makes this stay memorable. Lorna poached egg on toast is the best I've eaten.

Miinukset: Although it is 15 min walk to town, in the cold and rain, it is unbearable. But cab fare is cheap so it is still value for money.

Plussat: Great hosts.nice clean room spacious too.free off road parking close by.only 15 minutes walk into town centre.Great choice for breakfast.All freshly cooked.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: The hostess offered to do our washing on arrival. More than we would expect. The breakfast was fantastic. There were some extra touches in the room - marshmallows & other. Hosts recommended eateries and things to do.

Miinukset: There was a musty smell on arrival so opened windows. I think this is typical in the climate and settled with opening windows. The quilts on the bed could be updated to simple plain white sheets. The shower was not a problem for 2/3 guests but for me it fluctuated hot/cold constantly so not sure if it was a high demand time for showering.

Plussat: Erittäin ystävällinen isäntäväki. Hyvä aamiainen. Siistiä. Sai hyviä vinkkejä. Seuraava yö vinkin perusteella Hawesissa. Lähellä muinainen kiviympyrä.

Miinukset: Huoneemme oli pieni-sitä saa mitä tilaa...Ystävien huone tilava. Kävellen kaukana keskustasta. Pysäköinti kadun varressa.

Plussat: Very friendly and helpful host, delicious breakfast ...very tasty homemade jams :) Clean rooms and it‘s perfect located in Keswick.

Plussat: Excellent location and friendly owners

Plussat: Breakfast excellant , location even better

Plussat: Location and welcoming proprietor.

Plussat: Location was fantastic. Clean comfy bedrooms. Good breakfasts and good food. Rooms serviced regularly. Very enjoyable stay

Miinukset: More parking spaces available for guests would be lovely but managed to park locally most nights. Keswick is hard to park so fully understand only having a couple of spaces x

Plussat: Great location - a lovely peaceful spot a few minutes’ stroll from the middle of town and the bus station. The room and bathroom were spotlessly clean and looked recently decorated. The freshly cooked to order breakfast was delicious and generous, as were the cereals and fruit. All washed down with an enormous pot of tea! Connor was friendly and helpful without being intrusive and gave us a good recommendation for dinner, along with a route for our walk up Cat Bells. I’d certainly stay again and will recommend Swiss Court to family and friends.

Plussat: Friendly staff. Clean accommodation with good facilities. Excellent cooked breakfast.

Miinukset: None

Plussat: Lovely people, fantastic food and accommodation, will definitely stay again.

Plussat: The owners were very helpful, and the breakfast was great. It's within easy walking of the town centre. Ask about the pubs and restaurants!

Miinukset: Nothing significant comes to mind.

Plussat: Barry and Clare made us feel so welcome during our stay, providing five star service throughout, and always had time to stop and chat no matter how busy they may have been.

Miinukset: We have no negative comments at all

Miinukset: Nothing comes to mind.

Plussat: Warm friendly welcome, very clean facilities and the breakfast is superb. Wonderful views from the property and an easy walk into the town. There is also a swimming pool for residents use!

Miinukset: I could not complain about anything.

Miinukset: I don't think you should have to provide your own toilet paper (after the first roll) in the self catering apartment. That is a bit cheeky. A non-stick frying pan should also be provided.

Plussat: Over and above what we expected. In a beautiful location. Very scenic and quiet. A great breakfast and lovely hosts. Cleanliness second to none. Easy walk into Keswick.

Miinukset: Nothing. All good.

Plussat: The setting was beautiful , staff very pleasant and polite , the dinner was amazing and the breakfast was lovely !

Plussat: Excellent service, setting and food!

Plussat: Hidden gem. Rooms are lovely with little personal touches of homemade biscuits and fruit liqueur. Food was fantastic. It has a wonderful welcoming and friendly atmosphere. As a solo traveller felt at ease and spent 2 lovely evenings with fellow guests in the cosy bar. Angela and Adrian were the perfect hosts nothing is too much to ask. Great area for walking straight from hotel door. Hosts are very knowledgeable on the area and recommended a great area to walk.

Plussat: The location was superb. Staff / owners were very friend and VERY professional. Food was out of this world. Wines are a bit pricey. Meal service was the best ever AND brought to your table. Table cloths and cloth napkins for both breakfast and evening meal.

Miinukset: Drinks are expensive. Didn't see any red squirrels a shame as I took my binoculars. Bedroom windows a bit draughty. Would have liked a choice of quilts. Its was far too thick and heavy (13+ tog and we normally have a 9).

Plussat: Good location,lovely old building full of character

Miinukset: Nothing at all

Plussat: Great location and friendly staff

Miinukset: Nothing.

Plussat: Very friendly and perfect location

Miinukset: Double room in the loft with sloping ceiling up a very steep and narrow staircase. Not good for over sixtys and room location not made clear when booking.

Plussat: Excellent location. First class breakfast. Very comfortable bedroom with all necessary amenities. Friendly efficient service.

Miinukset: I had no dislikes.

Plussat: Breakfast was delicious. The location is very convenient with the added bonus of a car park. We were particularly impressed by the offer to change rooms from the top floor down to the first floor as I was recovering from a hip operation and using a stick.

Plussat: The location was very good. The breakfasts were really tasty. The family were very friendly. Nothing was too much trouble.

Miinukset: Nothing

Miinukset: Inflexible breakfast time

Plussat: Lovely hosts who made us feel very welcome and the breakfast was excellent.

Miinukset: wonderful place highly recommend

Plussat: Owner very friendly & helpful, best breakfast ever! Thank You.

Miinukset: Nothing, all perfect.

Plussat: A real Gem. Great value. Warm welcome friendly helpful host. Room was immaculate. Large double room with large bathroom all well appointed. Free Wi-Fi and TV. Extra touches hot choc tea coffee biscuits even complimentary sweets in room. Bedding and towels were pristine. Breakfast was also excellent. Road set a little way back from town but only 5mins walk to Main St. 15 to 20mins from the theatre on the lake. On street parking outside. Highly recommended.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Staff were extremely helpful; printed off a local walk for us. Breakfast was excellent. The balcony outside the bedroom had a splendid view of Derwent Water.

Miinukset: Bedroom was quite compact

Plussat: superb breakfast

Miinukset: Too many stairs to bedroom

Plussat: Excellent location. The property was spotless. The breakfast was delivered in a hamper, which was great as you could relax and enjoy breakfast in your room.

Miinukset: Parking was pretty small and tight coming from the main road with little room to swing around to actually reverse park. The parking area is a shared area.

Plussat: Location and parking was brilliant for walks and easy access into the town center, although I was not checking in until 18.00 I was able to leave my car in their car park and head off walking around the lake.

Miinukset: Due to high winds the bathroom sash window frame which was in need of some maintenance as it not only had big gaps around it but rattled due to the wind, stuffed toilet paper in the gaps sort of reduced the rattling noise. The brake fast which was excellent but was let down by the sausages which were supposed to be “Cumberland” sausages, I think the vendor needs to changes his supplier, they were a bit of a let down - way off the Cumberland sausage recipe, The vendor should also look at a bit more lighting around the front door/pathway it is extremely tricky negotiating that area in the dark, especially anyone with reduced mobility.

Plussat: Excellent breakfast. Coffee, tea, and cookies in the rooms were great.

Miinukset: Bed was a little uncomfortable - I could feel the springs. I still slept well after a day of walking.

Plussat: Lovely place with great views and excellent location.:-)

Miinukset: The towel rail was extremely hot.
