Booked this just for weekend with my two daughters. Arrived in torrential rain, sleet and hail. Apartment was cosy and warm and was immaculately clean and had everything we needed. It is in a great location for easy access to all Keswick has to offer. The parking space was a great bonus. Would highly recommend.

The only negative was that the sound from the outside to the Main Bedroom was quite loud .. I didn't check if the room had double glazing but it didnt sound as if it had. Maybe an investment to consider .

The flat was really clean, spacious and in a good location with excellent security and a free car parking space.. However it was really noisy and there was a huge 'hole' in the wooden frame above the window in the master bedroom which made it more noise and 'drafty' - especially in January. There was also a huge vent pipe outside the double bedroom from the restaurant that was noisy too! A little disappointed especially the cost of the property - maybe should inform customers of the noise levels.

Have been to Keswick many times and really loved this apartment! It is very central, next door to the George which is a great pub. Lovely light living room and everything is in perfect condition. Would highly recommend.

It would be helpful if on arrival guests were shown to their accommodations

Excellent location, very comfortable base, with loads of walks straight from the doorstep in beautiful scenery.. It can be a little noisy at night from passing nighttime revellers but overall this did not detract too much from the holiday at all. We would return to this flat.

Mr Clarke

One of the best rentals we have stayed in! Location super, furniture and fittings of very good quality, very good lighting throughout, ( unusually in most lets and we stay in 4/5 a year)for anyone on a walking hol in this area ideal. Would recommend this let. Secure parking, ( tho next to commercial bins) this was not a problem.and entrance to property secure, ( 3 locked doors! ) Although on the second floor there are only two small flights of stairs, all in all an excellent property!

Mrs Vincent

The apartment is ideally situated, well equipped, clean & tidy.. On departure we reported concerns with the plumbing as the toilet was very noisy, the bath taps tight and the shower rail a bit wobbly! We only got one set of keys (although when I asked on checking out, there was another set) which was a safety issue due to locks/access to the building. Not the prettiest entrance to a property (I wouldn't like to have been on my own on dark nights) and as long as you don't want a lie in (refuse trucks empty bins daily) it was a great apartment right in the centre of Keswick.

Mr Munro

Please refer to the email I sent you regarding fire regulations.. I do feel a sense of obligation to refer these concerns to a higher authority. Perhaps you can provide some reassurances and explanations that would make that unnecessary.

The accommodation was in a fantastic place for restaurants, shops and the surrounding attractions.. There is a cafe/pub opposite that was open til late and most nights people were very noisy and disturbed our sleep or relax time. The windows even closed did not keep the noise out. Maybe the windows need to be changed to eliminate any outside noises. The beds mattress and pillows were not what we are used to, my opinion is to have a firm mattress and pillows or a choice of soft or firm pillows.

Lovely flat with everything we needed and close to everything in centre of Keswick

Apartment was very spacious and very comfortable clean and tidy but all this was outweighed by the very dodgy combie boiler that was struggling to produce enough hot water for us to shower as there was four of us staying in the apartment in fact it was that bad that we were washing ourselves from the sink in the bathroom this of course ruined our weekend and the staff in Lakelands office answer to the problem was to only run the tap at half flow, this did not work believe me we tried everything and nothing worked as soon as the water got hot the boiler heater switched off, i suggest that the thermostat requires changing out, my question also to Lakeland is when was the boiler last serviced as there is no record anywhere of any services having been carried out, i repeat this ruined our weekend

We've just returned home from a stay at Siskin. It is, by far, the nicest place we have stayed in Keswick (having visited for many years). A great location in the centre of town, all mod-cons and really comfy beds. The weather was wet so we were pleased at how warm the flat and shower were. Thoroughly recommend a visit.
