This accommodation is simply wonderful. The hosts are helpful and unobtrusive, the gardens are beautiful, the location peaceful yet within easy walking distance to the amenities in Portinscale and Keswick. The Mews is quiet, tastefully decorated, fully equipped and spotless. The bed is large and comfortable and it was the perfect base for our holidRead moreay in the Lakes. We had a fantastic time and wouldn't hesitate to come back or to recommend this place to others. Hide

We had a marvelous time in a beautiful Lake District location. The cottage was perfect for two, with a lovely view and sense of privacy. David made sure that everything was very well maintained.

We have stayed here before and it is lovely. It is very clean and had everything we needed. It is also so very well placed for lots of walks and it so convenient for Keswick. The added bonus is that the parking is excellent. We were very warmly greeted by David. Hope to return again
