Guests say
Falcon Crag is a spacious and well-located cottage in Keswick, ideal for groups and families, with private parking and easy access to the town centre and local attractions. Guests appreciate the underfloor heating, comfortable beds, and ample living space. While the property offers good facilities and is dog-friendly, several reviews mention issues with cleanliness and some maintenance concerns. Despite these, many guests would return, highlighting the property's convenience and suitability for exploring the Lake District.
Cleanliness is a recurring concern, with multiple guests noting dust, grime, cobwebs, and occasional unpleasant odours. Some found towels and bedding less than fresh, and a few reported needing to clean on arrival. However, others found essentials like pots, pans, and linens clean, and prompt cleaning responses were noted.
The location is highly praised, with guests loving the proximity to Keswick town centre, Derwentwater, and local parks. Private parking is a significant advantage in an area where parking is often difficult.
Guests generally found the property spacious and warm, with comfortable beds and good showers. Some mentioned issues with low beds and awkward access for those with mobility concerns, but overall comfort was rated positively.
Facilities such as underfloor heating, well-equipped kitchen, and multiple bathrooms are appreciated. However, some maintenance issues were reported, including plumbing odours, broken fixtures, and missing items. The property is well-suited for groups and families.
There are no mentions of welcome gifts or extra thoughtful touches in the reviews, so a score cannot be provided for this category.

Good location, nr to the centre. House is tired and grubby in places and could do with a good clean and a lick of paint. The kitchen utensils, cups, plates and pans needed washing before we could use them. Also the fan cover at the back of the oven was not attached as all 4 fixing screws were missing.

We enjoyed our stay woth 2 couples and a dog. The accommodation is over 2 levels and ideal for 2 families, each level has a large double bedroom, bunk bedroom and bathroom. There are 2 living rooms, allowing kids their own social space. And a good size kitchen with all appliances, washing machine and dryer. The drive at the back is amazing in Keswick and just fits 2 standard size vehicles.
