Great location close to everything in Keswick. Size is great and perfect for a group of 6 friends on a walking weekend. Does need a bit of TLC though as its very tired and worn in places. Definitely not to the standard of other Keswick rentals.

Stayed here for 30 years but over the years it has changed. On the plus side Kingsfell is close to the town centre but parking is poor. The dinner room lacked some key features such as table mats and small (tumbler size) glasses. This year the 'drying room' (an essential in the Lakes) was unusable as the top section of a dresser was being stored inRead more there, this also meant that the high chair could not easily be accessed. There is only one seperate toilet, the other one is in the shower room. Hide

A great location in quite a basic house. Make sure you pack your own towels and extra layers for the single glazed windows!
