Great for extended families. We had a couple of bikes ... we'd been happier if there was outside storage for them. The towel rails didn't seem to work at first, but they must have been on a timer...and they did the job. So did the on street parking which I thought tight shoppers would scupper...but it coped ( good to have the space round the cornerRead more...maybe 2 would be possible/ better?) We've stayed in more luxurious lakes places...but this was great for us with "kids" in their 20s Hide

Worst holiday let I have stayed in, but suited our needs for our 2 night stay (large family gathering).

We thoroughly enjoyed our long weekend with family in Pinewood House. The house was very clean, beds were comfy and we enjoyed the fact there were 3 reception rooms so you could escape the TV, play board games easily, and the kids could go off and do their own thing. Handy for exercising the dog in the park and getting provisions at the supermarketRead mores. Hide

This is the second time we have used the house for a family weekend. It's pretty well perfect for our needs. It's really central and it's usually possible to get cars parked nearby in Stanger Street which is a bonus. It has good Wi-Fi too. We forgot that we needed to take our own towels, however we discovered that the Cancer Research shop sells nicRead moree new towels - the only place in Keswick. Handy to know! We love the large Lake District OS map on the wall too. We plan to go back next year. Hide

Nice house in a very central location in Keswick. Easy access to the shopping area and the fells. Lots of space inside with plenty of seats. Bedrooms and bathrooms were all clean. En-suite bathrooms are small but big enough for shower and toilet. Kitchen was well equipped and it's nice to have a separate dining room.
