Gorgeous place lots of space inside and out and lovely and cool in this weather. Easy to access spacious rooms, comfy bed only thing is we did have to move the bed to put our travel cot in there and some dust bunnies under bed but not the end of the world would 100% stay again

We have taken this cottage and previously next door for 20 years, sometimes for more than 1 week. The position and surroundings with local amenities are exceptionally suitable , a base for walking, up in the fells, cycling or just the peace and quiet on nature and the gurgling of a peaceful slightly agitated river behind. To see on parking it is a leisurely stroll of around 20 minutes into bustling Keswick, with its weekly local market is a joy to peruse to enjoy. The old railway track now regraded and tarmac covered is a pleasant walk 3 mile walk to Threlkeld where there are some choice inns to enjoy a meal and a refreshing drink and if that is enough exercise just catch the bus back.The Stop to alight is nigh on outside the cottage. A central position in the Lake District allows travel in any direction and the bonus of the cottage is that there is ample parking. The cottage is excellent it has every amenity needed and well serviced. all modern conveniences, allows Wi Fi connection and all other modern home from home luxuries, only a "meanie" would not enjoy. have a trek up Latrigg behind, search the local walks, Brierly and the ex cottages involved in making wooden spools of all sizes cross the road and head up Walla Crag for a short ramble with amazing views over Borrowdale. But all in all enjoy your stay, we do!

Clean, well equipped, reasonably comfortable, pleasantly situated by the River Greta and an easy walk into Keswick town centre. The busy main road towards Penrith that runs past the cottage is a little noisy but that’s not the fault of the cottage, just something to be aware of. Overall a very pleasant stay.

Lydia’s cottage is a delight, it definitely has the wow factor. Everything about it is a delight, it’s so well equipped and comfortable. It was very pleasant to go to sleep every night with the sound of the river, and a very comfy bed. A big plus for me was the bus stops outside, I travelled by train so I used the very good bus service to get around. I also appreciated the Fair Share scheme so I could donate food etc that I couldn’t take with me. I highly recommend this cottage and would definitely book again. It also helped that I had beautiful weather so the patio overlooking the river was well used!
