Guests say
Manesty is a well-received cottage in Keswick, praised for its quiet location, stunning views, and enclosed garden ideal for dogs. Guests appreciate the clean and comfortable accommodation, modern kitchen, and newly refurbished bathroom. The property is a great base for exploring the Lake District, with many returning for multiple visits.
Guests consistently note the property's cleanliness, mentioning 'spacious, clean' rooms and 'luxury towels'. The recent renovation of the bathroom also contributes to the high standard of hygiene.
The cottage's location is highly valued for its peacefulness, proximity to Keswick, and ease of access to local walks and sights, making it an ideal spot for both relaxation and exploration.
Comfort is a highlight, with guests finding the beds very comfortable and the living room furniture cosy. The extra cloakroom and secure garden add to the overall comfort of the stay.
The property is well-equipped with a modern kitchen and other amenities. Although there was a temporary issue with the boiler and dishwasher, the quick response to resolve these issues shows good maintenance.
While guests mention a 'wonderful welcome hamper', there are not enough references to consistently assess thoughtfulness across reviews. It should be noted that such gestures, while appreciated, are not guaranteed.

As a family of 4 adults Manesty was perfect for our needs. The house was spacious and the garden a lovely little retreat from which our dog could not escape, though we were all really pleased for the hand rail by the steps for getting up into it.It was a great location, only 1.5mile walk into Keswick and on the route to climb Skiddaw. We found travelling south into the Lake District a lot less busy than when we have stayed further south and had to come up to places, and would definitely consider staying here again.
