Guests say
Inglewood Cottage in Keswick is praised for its unbeatable central location, private parking, and well-equipped kitchen, making it an ideal base for exploring the town on foot. Guests appreciate the warmth and cosiness of the property. While some mention the need for deeper cleaning, minor repairs, and updates to mattresses and furnishings, most found the cottage comfortable and functional for a short break. The prompt response to maintenance issues and the convenience of on-site parking are highlighted as positives, ensuring a pleasant stay for visitors.
Many guests found the cottage clean and tidy on arrival, but several noted areas needing a more thorough clean, such as kitchenware, bins, and bathroom tiles. Some isolated incidents of leftover food and stained bedding were mentioned, suggesting room for improvement.
The location is consistently praised as excellent, being just steps from Keswick's shops, restaurants, and attractions. The central setting and private parking are major highlights for guests.
The cottage is described as warm and cosy, but comfort is let down by old or uncomfortable mattresses, with several guests struggling to sleep well. Some furnishings are dated, but overall comfort is adequate for a short stay.
Facilities are generally good, with a well-equipped kitchen, modern heating, and reliable Wi-Fi. However, guests noted minor maintenance issues such as broken lamps, cracked bath panels, and faulty TV remotes. Prompt responses to some issues were appreciated.
There are no mentions of welcome gifts or extra thoughtful touches in the reviews, so a score cannot be provided for this category.

Excellent location, being in Southey Street, Keswick, a few minutes walk to Fitz Park and to the town centre. Well equipped cottage with a modern combi boiler for heating and hot water. The shower is really good but there is some black mold on the silicone seal and the seal on the bottom of the shower screen. The parking space is right next to the cottage and off the road. Wifi connection good with reasonable download speed. The kitchen was clean and had everything you could need. There is a problem with the kitchen tap: it needs a new aerator. The one it has is partially blocked so it's dificult not to get splashed as the water come out like a pressure washer. The 'smart' tv would be good if the remote control worked. This has been an issue for quite a while looking at previous quotes. We stayed in Greenwood last year and that was the same. Also the mattresses are really uncomforable. So landlord, change the mattresses, sort the tv out and fix the kitchen tap, then I would give both Inglewood and Greenwood five stars.
