A cottage located in paradise

We have been walking to Borrowdale and around Manesty for years and often passed Brandlehow thinking who lives in a cottage like this …. Well we were fortunate enough to stay there last week … The views are spectacular and we were blessed with good weather. Keswick cottages were very helpful over a few requirements we needed for our stay at the cottage Thank you Wonderful memories made

Tranquil setting for relaxation

Beautifully positioned on banks of Derwent allows easily access for water sports. Wonderful views from the garden and the viewing corridor (by bedrooms). Heating and hot water in plentiful supply. Well stocked kitchen for prepping and cooking. We were blessed with beautiful weather which made it a perfect stay for us all.

Keswick Cottages were very helpful and responsive. The house had the most amazing views and the location was perfect on the edge of Derwentwater and close to many great walks.

Great Stay

Lovely property in a perfect location. Property management team, really helpful & pleasant. Dealt with any issues straight away. (we only had the one). Would definitely recommend this property. Plenty of walks on the doorstep & Keswick only a 15 minute drive away.

Fabulous cottage, stunning location. Enjoyed the hot tub but perhaps should have been included in the overall price of the accommodation and not as an extra. We found there were only 2 folding chairs for outside and needed couple more for older members of party to carry down to lakeside. Overall a really enjoyable week

We are so glad we came back for a second visit ...

This was a return visit 12 months from the previous one, and we loved it ... from the first moments of arrival to the sad departure a week later. Keswisk Cottages had clearly looked at our few pointers from a year ago, and had made some subtle but really effective changes: a bit of TLC and some nice touches here & there. Brandlehow is so wonderully positoned just yards from the waters edge, the welcoming feel of the property and the great condition of the place just makes it feel like a real home-from-home ... we like it so much we are already trying to book again for next year! Thankyou to the Keswick Cottages team for their support through the booking and the period before we arrived, and the odd phone query from us on a couple of specific topics which we handled with aplomb by the team.

Possibly the best located holiday cottage in the Lake District.

We booked this cottage because we like to take our two spaniels to nice places. This is the most dog friendly place we have ever been. Secure, large garden and stunning traffic-free walks literally from your doorstep. We stayed late November when the ferry was not running, a round trip to Kewick in the car for shopping is at leat an hour so arrive well stocked. If the weather gods play ball, watch beautiful reflections on the lake by day and the Milky Way at night. Last but not least, Keswick Cottages were efficient, professional and a pleasure to deal with. Book direct for best price.

Amazing stay

We all had an excellent stay at Brandlehow. The location was beyond exceptional, with easy access to both Keswick and the surrounding environs of Derwent Water and Borrowdale. Sunrise in particular was a moment of pure bliss. The facilities on site were excellent and beyond our expectations. Having a separate boot room / toilet to dump walking gear proved to be handy. The kitchen was very well appointed. The lounge comfortable. The hall was ideal for our dogs. The bathrooms were clean and spacious. The bedrooms were comfortable, fresh and inviting. Although the beds were a little soft and pillows a tad big, hence the 4 out of 5 rating. The hot tub was great, especially after a long walk, with an amazing aspect. The only improvement could be some hooks outside to hang towels or dry robes, perhaps under an awning to keep them dry. Overall, lots of thoughtful touches, with treats for the dogs, the attention to detail with the App guide, matches to light the fire pit, games and jigsaws and even a smart TV. Well done, we’ll look to come again. Teddy in the window rocks!

Old house, hidden by the lakeside.

If you want isolation (save for a few walkers using the footpath), to use the lake and walk, and you don't care that there isn't a pub within walking distance, this is the house for you! The furnishings are fine/good, although some table lamps downstairs would be a really nice addition to make it feel a bit cosier in the evenings. We walked, swam and kayaked every day for 2 weeks in all weathers, and popped into Keswick frequently for food, shops and the lovely Alhambra cinema. You need a car - the house is down a long single-track lane. Keswick Cottages are a pleasure to deal with, and responded well to every problem that came up.
