This is a very spacious cottage which is ideally located to enjoy all that Keswick has to offer. The garden is very pretty and the kitchen is extremely well equipped. The rooms and beds are comfortable and it is good to have a bedroom and bathroom downstairs for people who are less mobile. The description is accurate as people are informed to bringRead more their own towels. Parking was available in local streets, but we stayed off season and I expect spaces will be more difficult to find in peak season. Hide

We booked Oak Lodge for a team offsite and it was great accommodation. Just a stones throw (2-3 min walk) into Keswick it was ideal for us location wise. Being near to local walks, fells and bike trails was handy for the activities we had planned.

This is a fantastic property in the heart of Keswick, just a very short walk to the centre of the town. You will find everything you need in the house for a very comfortable stay. We were 8 people, four couples and found we were never in each others space. Be aware that towels are not provided which seems strange for a high priced property.

This was the second time we had stayed at this delightful house and would not hesitate to come back again. However, it is advertised as having an enclosed garden but there is a gap in the wall where there has at one time been a gate.
