We stayed 4 nights at Hillside Cottage.
We stayed 4 nights at Hillside Cottage. The cottage is located in a quiet position about 30 minutes walk to Derwent Water. Perfect for leaving the car behind in the private drive. The cottage is very well presented and has everything you need for a pleasant stay. Kitchen very well equipped and nice to have a full size under counter freezer, perfect for longer stays. Washing machine, with airers supplied to dry clothes inside if the weather is bad. Washing line outside (pegs supplied) if the weather is dry. Washer had facility to dry clothes but we didn’t use this. Beautiful large lounge with separate dining area..Kingsize bed was very comfy but can’t comment on the singles or bunk beds because they weren’t used. Lovely oak bedroom furniture. The beautiful views out the windows are definitely worth a mention. One thing to point out for future visitors is that although the property has 2 toilets, there is no sink in the second one. For a family of 6 staying this could be more of a problem than it was for just the two of us. Also my husband felt he couldn’t get the shower to run warm enough, although the temperature was absolutely fine for me. All down to personal preference and not a criticism. We would definitely book the cottage again for future visits to Keswick.
