Beautiful. Clean. Excellent location. A two minute walk to the centre of Keswick. Such a peaceful and calming view. All kitchen equipment was simple to use, very clean, and we enjoyed eating the gifted local produce. The shower was a dream. Bathroom excellent. It was very easy to settle into this apartment and relax. We had two concerns initially that others may be interested in. 1) the visiting family in the apartment above had parked incorrectly. There is a map/sign on the wall that explains the parking. Easily rectified. 2) The family above were quite loud and we were concerned of noise travelling through the ceiling. No problem at all. We will certainly be returning!

Since our stay last year in 3, the apartment had been beautifully refurbished. The decor and new furniture really enhanced the place. Its floorplan is ideal and the open living area makes it a very relaxing homely apartment. I often say I could live there permanently! The apartment is so central to Keswick on a quiet one way lane, sited right by the river Greta overlooking the park on the opposite bank, so whatever the weather there is always something to keep you entertained, inside or out. I must say it is always clean, fresh and tidy when we arrive each time. And a joy to spend a weeks stay. Lis
