Guests say
Brundholme Glen is praised for its excellent location just a short walk from Keswick town centre and Fitz Park, making it ideal for dog owners and those seeking easy access to local amenities. Guests appreciate the secure parking, well-equipped kitchen, and comfortable living spaces. While the cottage is clean and offers good value, several reviews mention that the décor and furnishings are dated and some maintenance issues exist. Overall, it provides a convenient and pleasant base for exploring Keswick, especially for those travelling with dogs.
Most guests found the cottage clean and tidy on arrival, though a few noted minor lapses such as unclean drawers, dusty blinds, and a slight dog smell. Overall, cleanliness is generally satisfactory but could be improved with more attention to detail.
The location is consistently highlighted as a major strength, with easy access to Keswick town centre, Fitz Park, and riverside walks. Guests found it ideal for both leisure and dog walking.
Guests found the cottage comfortable overall, with good heating and hot water. However, several mentioned very firm beds and dated furniture, which affected sleep quality for some. The living areas are generally comfortable, but some updating is needed.
The cottage is well-equipped with kitchen essentials and TVs in bedrooms, but guests noted maintenance issues such as leaking taps, missing radiators, and outdated appliances. Facilities are functional but would benefit from refurbishment and modernisation.
Guests noted a lack of thoughtful extras such as welcome packs, soap, or shower gel. While some properties offer these touches, they are not guaranteed at this cottage. Quick responses to issues were appreciated, but overall thoughtfulness could be improved.

The cottage is a perfect setting not too far out if Keswick with parking. The river Greta runs at the back of the cottage so that can be loud or therapeutic depending on your outlook. There are lots of walks right on the doorstep. The cottage is well equipped TV in bedrooms and lounge. We had issues with the one in the lounge but was soon sorted after popping into Keswick cottages office. Overall a great base for Keswick, cottage needs refreshing but very clean and highly recommend.
