Guests say
Bleaberry at Hewetson Court is a well-located, cosy apartment in the heart of Keswick, ideal for exploring the town and surrounding walks. Guests appreciate the convenience of the parking space, comfortable beds, and well-equipped kitchen. Many return year after year, praising the excellent location and overall comfort. Some guests have noted issues with cleanliness and water pressure, but these are outweighed by the property's many positives, including its quiet setting and ease of access to local amenities.
Several guests found the apartment clean and tidy on arrival, but a notable number reported issues such as damp towels, mouldy shower mats, and unclean crockery. While some improvements have been made after feedback, cleanliness appears inconsistent.
The location is repeatedly praised as excellent, being central to Keswick, close to shops, pubs, and the Convention. The convenience of walking to local attractions without needing a car is a major highlight.
Guests frequently mention comfortable beds and a cosy atmosphere. While some noted issues with bedding and pillows, the majority found the apartment pleasant and restful for their stay.
The apartment is well-equipped with kitchen essentials and benefits from a parking space. However, guests have noted weak water pressure, maintenance needs in the kitchen, and occasional issues with appliances such as the fridge and dishwasher.

Not well cleaned. Towels were damp and smelt horrible, but were changed after multiple complaints. Anti slip shower/bath mat was mouldy (now changed), shower screen seal was mouldy and broken (now changed). Crockery was dirty, as were the cutting boards -they still had butter and crumbs on. Dishwasher filter needed cleaning, probably why the crockery was not clean. Lots of bits and pieces of debris on the floor, maybe not vacuumed prior to us going in. The TV had been wiped but child finger food still left on screen. Previously there have been 7 dishwasher tablets, our last visit only 2 were left, this time none! This said the location with 1 car parking place makes it an ideal place to stay if you want central Keswick.We will look for somewhwre else to stay before booking here again.

Bleaberry is extremely convenient for Keswick town centre, and especially the annual Christian "Keswck Convention" , which is why we stayed there. I think this year was our 4th time in the flat and we're already booked again for next year. The beds are extremely comfortable. The shower is lovely. The parking is fine. We have noticed that it could do with a lick of paint, and there are one or two things in the kitchen that need updating. New sharp knives and a decent sized sieve come to mind. Also, the fridge might be coming to the end of its life as it was freezing things at the back. But it has most of the basics which is great.It's gone up in price quite considerably for next year, probably because of the government's determination to tax everything to the brink of existence!To the owners: Thank you for making it comfy for us year on year.

Excellent little flat. Very comfortable to stay in with lots to do in the local area. Only negative thing to note is the lack of hot water pressure, which impacted the shower and kitchen sink.
