One of the best cottages we have ever stayed in. Very good location within walking distance of Keswick. A very good morning walk for the dogs off lead within 10 minute walk. The cottage was clean, well equipped and fairly comfortable. Lovely views from the kitchen towards Barrow etc. Unfortunately, there is no direct access to the back garden meaning we had to put our dogs on a lead every time we wanted to let them out. However, this did not detract from the overall experience. We would definately recommend Haystacks and will book again

We had a very happy holiday staying in Haystacks. The bungalow was comfortable and warm. We liked the location and the proximity to bus stops. Most of our walks utilised busses to get to start points. The books and guides in the cottage were very comprehensive and gave us ideas for walks.Weather not good enough to use the garden unfortunately but the Alhambra Cinema made a good substitute!

Would certainly book again!
