This downstairs apartment is in a great location for central Keswick being about a 2 minute walk for the centre. There is on street parking on a first come first served basis but is not needed as there is a car permit for one car in the church car park behind the apartment which can be accessed easily from the backdoor. The apartment is a little dated but I feel this is reflected in the price. There is also a small gated courtyard at the rear which the dog can't escape from. This has a small table and chairs and gets full sun from early afternoon until sunset. Kitchen is well equipped and has the basics already there like salt, pepper, dish washing materials, etc. The bathroom has bath and electric shower so have choice of either. Overall, I would stop here again and thoroughly enjoyed my stay.

This is the first time I’ve given less than five stars to a host. This property could be great if the host would only send a pre-arrival text describing the tricks to opening the three locks to get into the lodging and then have a welcome packet identifying the Wi-Fi information and describing how to work the quirkier aspects of the property. This would avoid the necessity of contacting the owner every time a new difficulty arose. For us, that meant 3 or 4 text exchanges. The owner did respond in a timely manner to our questions and eventually offered to come over and show us how everything worked. By that time, we were so frustrated with spending time, figuring out the house instead of hiking that we just got on with our holiday as best we could. We did learn how to work the shower but if, when, and for how long hot water will come out of the taps remains of mystery to us.If our problems are something that wouldn’t bother you, the location of the lodgings makes up for a lot. There is easy access to town, walking trails, museums, restaurants and grocery stores. The firm beds are very comfortable, the kitchen is reasonably stocked for cooking utensils and cookware, and the heat works well. Be aware that you should bring your own oil, spices, coffee and laundry detergent. Not a problem for UK residents but tough on international travelers.
