Haystacks is a well-regarded cottage praised for its cleanliness, comfort, and prime location within walking distance to Keswick centre. Guests appreciate the well-equipped kitchen, cosy atmosphere, and ample parking. The views and proximity to local walks add to its charm. Some minor maintenance issues and suggestions for improvements are noted, but overall, guests are keen to return, highlighting the property's warmth and convenience.
The property is generally found to be very clean, with several guests commending its tidiness. However, a couple of reviews mentioned the need for better cleaning in specific areas, such as the bathroom floor, slightly lowering the score.
The location is highly praised for being a short walk from the centre of Keswick and close to local walks, with great views. It is considered quiet and convenient, making it an ideal base for exploring the area.
Guests find the beds comfortable and the property cosy, with a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The presence of a garage for storage and the overall well-maintained state of the accommodation contribute to a comfortable stay.
The cottage is well-equipped, especially the kitchen, and offers good heating and parking. Some guests suggested the addition of a tumble dryer and other minor amenities. Ongoing building work next door was a temporary inconvenience for some.
While guests mention appreciating various amenities and touches, such as a tray for shoes, there are no specific references to gifts or extra thoughtful gestures that would warrant a score in this category.

We stayed for 2 weeks and enjoyed our stay. We really liked the proximity to Keswick, so nice just being able to walk in. We also found having the garage really good with a bike and pram, especially when they were wet. The accommodation was nice and is clearly well looked after and very clean. The bed was lovely and comfy. The only thing which would have been useful is a tumble drier as we had wet clothes and it wasn't great weather so we couldn't dry them outside. Overall though a lovely stay and we'd definitely stay again.
