Amba

Location great for access to town centre and a 10 minute stroll to lake.

Loud music/chatter from adjacent hospitality premises was a negative point. Appartment well presented and seemed to have most of what you needed,however a couple of fans would have been appreciated especially with the hot weather that we are experiencing. A fausty/stale smoke smell was evident on accessing the building and going to the first floor landing but was not evident from that point onwards. Nearby car parking was a big plus.

Great location right in town centre so everything on your doorstep.

Allocated parking directly opposite behind the shops was a bonus, even though spaces were a bit tight. This apartment is up 1 flight of stairs then along a corridor at the end, nice n quiet until someone arrived towards the end of our stay(luckily) and were directly above us. As it's an old building the floors are very creaky so if the folks above you are early risers or like to stay up, unfortunately you'll hear them. For future bookings I would make sure my apartment was on the top floor. The place was spacious, beds comfy and clean and a good shower. It would have been nice if we could make a cuppa on our arrival but no tea/coffee/milk provided so a quick trip to the local shop is needed as soon as you get there. Keswick is a great central location with plenty to see and do. 2 lovely parks one of which leads you to Derwent water. We visited the pencil museum and the 70s/80s retro museum. We utilised the local bus service which I recommend, it's cheap, easy to use(download the Stagecoach app) you can book tickets on the app, pay cash or card on the bus. Much easier than finding your own way then looking for parking, which was difficult sometimes and also expensive. Enjoyed it here, we would stay again

We had a lovely time at Amba!

  We loved the central location, the spaciousness and cleanliness of the apartment, the beautiful furnishings - in fact, we loved almost everything about it! (We're not madly keen on leather sofas as we find them slippery and a bit uncomfortable - but that's just a small criticism.) Many thanks to Sykes and to the owners of Amba. Warmest regards Joan and Ian Gibson

Really lovely stay right I n middle of everything hoping to come again later in year

Tremendously central, great view of Skiddaw.

Three adults plus dog . Would stay again , have stayed at Inn on the Square and Amba is 3rd let we have stayed in since 2023 Improvements ? - some instruction on NEFF electric hob would be useful, familiar with layout but did get lost even done the smoke alarm! :) Be aware lift is out as of May-June 2026

Exactly described in the booking, even better with a secure car park for the town centre, a short walk to the lake, even better the weather was brilliant.

A very convenient place to stay, and a lovely apartment.

One issue is the lift is no longer working, so you need to be quite fit and able to get suitcases up the significant number of stairs.

The accommodation was as described.

It's in a great location, the apartment was lovely and clean on arrival. The extra bonus is the allocated parking space so close by. Would definitely recommend.

Another great stay at Amba, warm and comfortable, also a plus you have your own parking space, we have booked again for end of February

We have stayed here several times previously and have, as always, enjoyed our stay very much.

Our only, slight, upset this time was that the lift was out of order for the whole week and this was not communicated to us prior to going. Fortunately we are still able to use the stairs in spite of arthritic joints. Also , we were very pleased to find a small table in the living room at the end of the large settee by the window !

The property looks a little tired but is very clean, bed mattress and pillows are possibly due for replacement.

The kitchen is well equipped but there are almost too many utensils and it becomes difficult to locate what you are looking for.

A well appointed and well furnished apartment, we have stayed here on many occasions as it's a home from home apartment with all your needs catered for.

The location is superb with shops, bars and restaurants on the doorstep. Our only criticism for our latest stay was the lift being out of order but that is the matter for the freeholder. Looking forward to our next stay in November.

This was our 2nd stay at Amba and we have already re-booked again for the same time next year.

I'd just like to mention the sealant around the bath needs some attention/TLC. Great location, parking included and the accommodation has everything you need.

Lovely comfortable flat.

Very clean. Very well equipped. Central to everything. However the hoover needs replacing as very smelly. Other than that it’s excellent.

I have been coming to Keswick for 60+ years and this is the most central location we’ve been to and very much appreciated that.

The apartment was very clean and most comfortable for a 4 night stay.Parking was a little awkward at times if more than one vehicle was trying to manoeuvre but having said that,it was good to have a personal space in a very busy town.Being dog friendly was a big bonus for us.We would be happy to return and we recommend this accommodation without question.

Fantastic location, Amba had everything you need for a comfortable stay.

Nice central flat in Keswick.

Easy access everywhere and definitely needed the car park space as it is at a premium there. We’d stay there again.

Excellent property , had a wonderful stay in Amba Clean comfortable and close to all amenities Would definitely use this accommodation again

The property was exactly as described.

Very comfortable with everything we needed. The location was perfect.

Another lovely stay in Amba.

Perfect location and comfortable and clean apartment. Close enough to the park for the dog and shops, pubs and restaurants on the doorstep. Thank you and we will be back!

A brilliant property, very well located with everything you need.

Fantastic location and car parking nearby is great for a town centre stay.

Comfortable apartment with all the amenities needed. Only drawback was the distance from the front door to take the dog out for the nighttime/first thing toilet break but the listing was clear it was a first floor apartment. Booking, accessing property and checking out was all smooth and simple.

Fantastic apartment.

Very clean with a really well equipped kitchen. The sofas have been replaced since our last stay and are really comfortable. Perfect location in the centre of Keswick. If there was just one improvement it would be a small coffee table to use if the sofas are occupied by 4 people as there is only one in the middle. Very warm and cosy with the added bonus of a heated airier which was great for getting our clothes dry. We love it and have booked again for May

Great Apartment fab location everything you need except sofas in the lounge definitely need replacing they are totally saggy to the degree that our backs hurt after sitting for an hour or so

Loved this apartment, everything you needed and more.

Excellent location for all the shops and pubs. Would have booked for next year but already away. Christmas tree was beautiful in the living room and was a nice touch. Anyone booking this apartment won't be disappointed

Excellent as ever, we have stayed at Amba several times now and it is lovely.

Nice comfortable flat with good facilities and very handy location. It would be very useful if there was a small table of some sort at the window end of the large settee and a lamp. We really enjoyed our stay. Thank you.

Great stay, return customer.

.. Love the location and the available parking space.

We recently stayed at this lovely holiday flat in Keswick and were impressed with many aspects.

The flat was spacious, spotlessly clean, and equipped with all necessary amenities, which made our stay very comfortable. Having two bathrooms was especially convenient, and the private parking space was a huge plus given Keswick's limited parking. However, while everything else was perfect, we found the settees in the living room very uncomfortable. Unfortunately, this impacted our ability to relax and enjoy the space fully, leading us to leave a bit earlier than planned. With an upgrade in seating, this property would be ideal for a comfortable, extended stay in Keswick.

The apartment was more spacious than we were expecting.

Good location. Lovely newly appointed bathrooms. Excellent accommodation. Great views of Skiddaw from the lounge. Very good to have an allocated parking space. Reported to the agents a problem with TV aerial as TV reception intermittent. Would return again.

Amba is a lovely flat in the centre of Keswick with the bonus of an allocated parking space.

The flat was bigger than I thought and very clean and the kitchen was well equipped. There was a little noise from the bar below but if you want to stay in the centre of town you have to expect this. It didn't bother us though. You definitely don't need to use your car to go walking and exploring. We loved it and have booked the same place twice for next year. The only slight negative is the sofas. They could do with being replaced as it felt like they had sunk and were a bit uncomfortable. It hasn't put us off booking again though! A great flat in the centre of a beautiful town.

When we arrived the lounge curtains were hanging off the track we had to use clothes pegs to hold them together at night.

We reported this several times and the fact that the door into the flat was not locking properly. Although the door was fixed the day after the man even coming in on his day off to fix it the curtains were still not looked at when we left a week later. I did ring up several times to ask for these to be looked at even asking to speak to the manager and was told it could take up to 2 days to be able to speak to a manager !! Considering we paid over £800 for the week we thought this was very bad customer service.

The apartment was great.

Very central but quiet. The parking was an added bonus. It was large and airy, the bathrooms were lovely and the bed was very comfy. We enjoyed our stay enormously

Lovely place to stay every thing you need close to pubs shops and lots of lovely walks

unfortunately someone was parked in our reserved parking bay, not what you want when you first turn up.

.. and it is very difficult to find alternative parking in the centre of Keswick!

Super location.

Warm and cosy.

We have had a lovely stay at Amba as usual.

Now check out is at 10 am it gives us plenty of time to pack up. Wonderful.

Lovely accommodation.

Spotlessly clean, very well maintained, great facilities and the perfect location in the centre of Keswick. Could not fault it. Would definitely recommend. I will book this accommodation on my next visit to Keswick

Positives Great accomadation, warm, comfortable, everything you need.

We said we would return again, until. Negatives, stripped the beds as requested and to my dismay the Duvet was badly stained, looked like dried urine, to think we had slept in that bed for a week turned my stomach, won’t be returning. Very disappointing. Andrea

Lovely clean and well equipped apartment, in a great position, with a handy parking space across the road.

Only slight negatives, were the noise from the taco bar next door until midnight or so, & the very squeaky floor boards below and above us. Also, a coffee table &/or a pouffe in front of the two settees would have been very useful for us personally. We found the leather settees a bit cold & slightly uncomfortable, but on a positive, the heating was good, & the beautiful Xmas tree was very much appreciated with it being Xmas week. All in all, a good apartment.

Amba is a lovely apartment.

Very well equipped. A bathroom and en-suite was really good. Lovely and comfortable and clean apartment. Very central to everything. Would definitely book again.

Great apartment with everything we needed right in the centre of town.

Only slight drawback is the early checkout, especially on a Sunday morning… 9.00am & have the car moved also. The reason seems to be extra cleaning due to Covid 19- whilst I applaud the cleanliness I do think a slightly later checkout would be very welcome by many guests- it all seemed like a massive rush at the end of our break.

First the positives: -Very central property, handy to have parking nearby.

-Kitchen well stocked; bathrooms small but decent, recently refurbished. -Owners provide a wealth of dvds, books, guides, games etc… lovely touch. -Everything clean and worked fine -Comfy beds! Now the less good: -Noise!!! Terrible soundproofing. On the Friday and Saturday nights the Tapas Bar outside all windows plays loud music outside and has people talking loudly until 0030. Listing should mention this. With all windows closed, it kept us awake. Quieter the rest of week. On Tuesday night, the people in the (holiday) flat above Amba decided to do washing between midnight and 0230am. Machine so loud it might as well have been in our bedroom. You will literally hear every footstep from the flat upstairs. May not bother you; it really grated with us. -Some areas looking a bit dated and tired, notably carpets and cushions. -0900 checkout is unwelcome, especially having been kept up by noise the night before. But then to ask guests to empty the bins and recycling too? Come on… this takes the p***. Overall: the 4 stars is for the flat, minus the noise issues. Decent enough if you don’t mind noise and/or go to bed late, but we’d not return.

lovely as always

Property is nice and clean alround very nice comfortable property,nice position for all amenities,only setbacks are the times for entry and departure ie 16 00 hrs entry and 09.

00 departure

The only problem we had was the 9am kick out which is going to far you have to get up early to pack and get of the car park so I will not be going back to amba again I have read other people's feed back the same so the owner does not care the rest of our stay was great

Front window looks onto a tapas bar roof.

Can be a bit noisy at weekends until midnight. Very comfortable accommodation. Apartment spotless and very clean. Very nicely furnished and decorated throughout. Lovely central location. Parking bay very narrow, luckily I have a small car. Yes I would stay here again.

Very impressed with the apartment in terms of location, cleanliness and equipment/facilities.

Very comfortable stay.

Ideal location for the town and exploring from the door. Flat was well equipped and nicely renovated and decorated.

This apartment was lovely, had everything that you needed, it was in the centre of town .

Close to parks bus stops.

Very nice apartment in the heart of Keswick.

We were very comfortable our entire stay. It was wonderful being able to walk to everything, and even better to have a nearby parking space when we needed to use the car. I wouldn’t hesitate to book again for our next trip to Keswick.

The accommodation was spacious and really lovely, it had everything we needed, from a well stocked kitchen of utensils/crockery, dining table, washing machine, to netflix, when the weather sadly wasn’t that great.

Able to control the heating ourselves was great, at times it was very cold outside, but thankfully much warmer inside. A lovely modern bathroom and on suite, modern furniture, very clean and tidy accommodation. Beds were comfy and furnishings, curtains/bedding etc were great quality. Location to the centre/shops was brilliant. This was our 5th stay in Keswick, we love it so much. The only minor negative feedback is the booking out time of 9am and also having to leave the car park at 9am too. Never had to leave this early in other accommodation. Meant the last day (a busy Saturday) felt sadly very rushed and as we couldn’t find a space without additional cost, we came home earlier than planned and as usual, (without our end of holiday cafe breakfast treat) which kind of felt we cut short our break away.

It was lovely to find that both bathrooms had been completely redone and were fantastic , much better than before , also a new job as the old gas one was very difficult to use sometimes but generally it was as brilliant as always .

We have never not enjoyed out many stays at Amba and always look forward to another one providing we can afford it

Very convenient, and lovely and warm!

!

Great Central location.

.well stocked and comfortable apartment for a great stay...definitely shall stay again at the amba...just 1 negative and its not really about the facilities but the early checkout 9.00 a bit early!!!!

The accommodation was very well presented on arrival.

Spotless and very well equiped with everything you require for a short or long stay. Ideally situated in the center of town, it allows you access to all pubs, shops and local walks. We will return at easter and are looking forward to it already. Many Thanks.

We have stayed in Amba for quite a number of years now and have always enjoyed our stay.

On our recent visit we found that the fridge did not seem to keep things very cold and the tumble dryer didn’t seem to tumble. It just seemed to bake the items to the drum, and required prying out

We stayed here last year and were impressed this time with the new cooker.

Had a problem with the toilet in the en-suite and reported it. Went out for the day and on our return late afternoon the problem had been totally fixed. Would recommend this flat to anyone. Noticed updates with furniture and general care and cleanliness of flat totally acceptable. Thank you for a lovely stay.

We found this property excellent for location, facilities and cleanliness!

! Added bonus of DVDs and books also. We would definitely recommend this property to others and would return in a heartbeat!! Only negative was having to leave no later than 9am as we felt this was too early (we did know this when we booked) and feel maybe 10am or 11am would be better! Look forward to returning.

We have stayed at Amba several times and like the location, size and comfort of the accommodation.

It is well equipped for most needs. On the down side, the checkout time of 9am is a never-have-I-ever had to before thing. It's shame, to have to get up and get out, when the new occupants won't be checking in until 4pm. This has a poor last day of the holiday vibe. Also, there were a few cobwebs, and the bathroom radiator was dusty/mucky.

We have stayed several times at Amba and always enjoyed our stay.

The only problem is the toilet in the en-suite -it is very difficult to flush so needs some attention.

The check in and out time is not in keeping with other holiday lets and I would take this into account when I need to find accommodation again.

Otherwise all great thanks

A lovely place to stay.

So close to the centre and lovely views of Latrigg, Skiddaw and Causey Pike from the lounge window!

Bath and hand towels not the greatest of quality, bed pillows have seen better days.

Apart from those couple of issues our stay at Amba was superb, great kitchen facilities, decent TV, wonderful selection of lake district books and would certainly stay again.

Excellent apartment, our third stay, not disappointed

The property overall was ok but there are a few little issues that need ironing out.

There is no igniter on the cooker hob top which meant we couldn’t cook anything in a pan. Also this is not very safe as while we were trying to get the cooker to work obviously gas is escaping. Secondly the tumble dryer on the washer doesn’t work - this meant that after three very wet days in the lakes we had wet clothes all over the apartment trying to dry them - we appreciate that dryers aren’t cheap to run but if there is one you expect it to work Finally, there is nothing that the owner can do about it but the noise from the restaurant downstairs is much greater than we expected - not so much guests but the operations such as emptying the bottle bank after closing or very early in the morning

The apartment is very nice, comfortable, very clean, furnished with everything we needed and a great location.

The car parking is a little tight but fine. We would consider staying again. The singular downside is the ES Tapas Bar opposite with outside seating which is below the apartment windows in the alleyway which was nosey. It would be better if the outside seating was only allowed until 21:00. The staff were also turning the music up inside at 22:30 until 23:00 with all the windows open, which was annoying.

Just spent a weeks holiday staying at Amba.

Location of this apartment is fantastic and right in the heart of Keswick town centre. Spacious accommodation and ideal for a couple or a family of 4 people. Just to expand on others comments that it is right next to a Tapas Bar but there was little noise from there only people chatting and this never caused us any issues even with the windows open. Only thing I would say to be aware of is that the space to park your car is a little tight so just beware if you have a larger car but other than that a fantastic place to stay. So good we have already booked the same place for next year.

Great apartment.

Had all the facilities we could have asked for. It was nice that the owner allows dogs. Our springer spaniel settled in straight away and chilled out on his own bed which we brought with us. Would definitely return.Don’t be put off by the Tapas Bar located nearby. We had the windows open each evening and had no problem with any noise whatsoever. Just the sound of people quietly chatting and enjoying themselves, which is nice to hear in the background anyway after the covid lockdowns and it stopped early evening.

Lovely apartment in centre of town.

Great to have a parking space. Full details given on key collection and drop off, very easy to do. Had a lovely stay and no problems. We have stayed here before and would stay again. Thanks

Nice comfortable flat for 3 or 4 people, a handy location for the centre of Keswick with all amenities within walking distance.

There is a bar next door with outdoor seating, however patrons do seem to leave quietly at 11pm so there is a background noise till this time, but personally we didn't find it obtrusive, you are after all in the centre of town. The en suite is a little on the small side but quite adequate for it's purpose, the car parking is in a dedicated car park across, a short trek if you need the use of your car during your stay & we would consider staying there again.

Lovely apartment, very central, and handy for shops and bars.

The only fault was the showers, as we couldn't have a hot shower, but it seemed to be a problem with all the apartments, so probably a problem with the water supply rather than the shower, wouldn't stop us from recommending, or booking again.

Amba is a very comfortable apartment, would stay again.

Would be good to have rubbish and recycling facilities more easily accessible.

We stayed in this property 5 time’s now And have always had nothing but praise, but this time the apartment was very dusty which was a surprise especially at the moment!

! My husband suffers with dust allergies and my dog has severe dust allergy, my husband was sneezing like mad and his breathing got bad and my poor dog has lost her fur on her chest and legs . This is the first time we have had an issue

The Apartment was very nice and did everything it needed the only thing that is not mentioned was just below the main windows was a Tapas bar with outdoor seating which stays open playing loud music and when the customers have gone the staff are shouting and music playing and this goes on till approx 11.

30 pm.The weather on the week we were there was hot and humid so you had no choice but to leave every window open so it became difficult to sleep until after 12 midnight.Looking at the layout of Amba I assume it’s the only apartment affected by this.

3rd visit to these appartments and hope to come back soon.

We love the location and the appartments are perfect.

Great location, lovely airy, clean apartment and well equipped.

The big let down was the noise and smells. The Bar es tapas bar is located across the narrow alleyway and a fairly large pop up gazebo was erected every day , around 4.00 pm and dismantled around 11.30 pm. The noise from the people availing themselves of this facility was very, very loud and very annoying, you would almost think that they were sitting in the lounge of the apartment. Unfortunately, we both have lung problems and need to have adequate ventilation, so the windows needed to be open and the strong smells from the very spicy food was quite overpowering and nauseating. We also experienced much thumping about from the above apartment, from children running around, which started quite early in the morning - no lie ins for us!! I am sorry to say that these problems really diminished our enjoyment of our stay in Keswick.

The apartment was 15C when we arrived.

I am used to arriving in a previously warmed apartment, so was quite surprised. There are no recycling facilities and the kitchen bin was broken. The plumbing in the en-suite bathroom needs attention. Apart from those things, we had a great week in a lovely apartment. Office staff are friendly and helpful. The parking lock needs attention. On 2 occasions we were locked in the Carpark, unable to open the mechanism of the padlock to get out. On a third occasion, we were asked to help someone else who couldn’t get out.

We really enjoyed our stay in Amba, the apartment was spotlessly clean and the communal areas of the building well presented.

The property was well equipped with good quality cutlery and crockery. The apartment had good wifi throughout, the TV in the living room has iPlayer. Shame there isn't a TV in the twin bedroom. There was also a good selection of books and DVDs available. The flat also has its own dedicated parking space in a car park across the road. However, if you have mobility difficulties this property may not be for you. The lift is very small (3 people can just about squeeze in), and there are three steps in the corridor on the way to the apartment. It is quite a trail from your car to the apartment, though there is a loading bay outside the building.

A well positioned and very well equipped apartment.

Read the advice carefully re the parking space - it is against the far wall of the car park. A spare set of keys would have been useful as would a window Karcher (or similar) as there was a lot of window condensation In a couple of rooms. Would probably not be a problem apart from in Winter.

We have stayed at this apartment 4times it’s so nice.

It’s very clean and comfortable and the welcome tray in kitchen is a nice touch. It’s in the heart of keswick and right by all the shops and it does have a lift for anyone who struggle’s with stairs. will be booking again with Sykes Cottages’s for next yr . Would highly recommend to everyone

Lovely apartment well appointed and well situated

Great location, but car parking is not near the apartment.

A Tapas bar is only yards from the lounge and bedroom windows and was very noisy on Friday night.

We very much enjoyed our second visitto Amba.

It is a lovely comfortable flat. There was some noise from nearby but not enough to disturb us. There was everything we needed. Our 11yr old staffy loved it.

This is a great place to stay if you want a central location, in Keswick.

There was plenty of space for our family of 4 and our Pointer. However, the main double bed is very uncomfortable (you would do better on the floor or on one of the sofas) also, the tapas restaurant (located opposite the living room, but at ground level) is noisy Friday and Saturday nights - and when the weather is sunny - so be aware of this if you are coming with younger children. Finally, the curtains in the twin room are very thin, in contrast to the other rooms, you may need to hang something over the window to keep the light out during summer evenings. Apart from these downsides Amba is a great place to spend you time in Keswick!

the apartment was ideally situated, access was under cover, a lift available for heavy luggage, pet friendly, the parking wasn't very clear!

there are 3 x no.4 parking spots as one of the posts had been laid down I choose that spot which happened to be the wrong one, on returning to my car later I found a curt note on the windscreen, there was just the one set of keys making it awkward if we both wanted to go out separately,

The apartment was clean and well equipped and in a perfect location for us as we attending the Convention.

Other reviewers commented about noise from the Tapas bar, there is noise occasionally but it didn’t bother us much. The bathrooms are a little tired but they were clean and functional. We very much enjoyed our stay.

The towels in the apartment had a very musty smell which my wife tells me either indicates poor washing or that they have been stored damp or for a prolonged period without washing.

I pointed this out to staff at the office when returning the keys. The allocated parking space is awfully small and the overhanging tree definitely needs to be pruned back to allow better access. Both my wife and I have no mobility or size issues but getting in and out of the parking space was extremely tight. Noise from the Tapas bar directly below the apartment was also a bugbear with the fine weather, people sitting outside partied until after midnight making it very difficult to get to sleep.

Have stayed at Amba 4 times now as it’s in such a perfect location always very clean.

This time it had additional things like towels and a tray in kitchen with a few bits on which was a nice touch. Lady from office even phoned to say if we need anything just to pop in or call and wished us a lovely holiday. Whoever was staying upstairs had 3 small dogs that where getting left in apartment and were barking quite a bit which was annoying! But that’s wasn’t down to agents that run Amba

The apartment was very spacious and well-appointed, and had good quality amenities.

There was even alovely view of Skiddaw, even though we were right in the heart of Keswick.

AMBA was exceedingly well equipped and with very comfortable beds.

The staff on Station Road were most helpful and went out of their way to assist when we messed the television settings up.

1.

We were assaulted with very unpleasant, staled, wet carpet smell! We had to open all windows just to breath. 2. I noticed mold in the windowsills as I opened the windows! 3. The en-suite shower didn’t work. 4.,The en-suite’s toilet doesn’t flush properly and when I opened the tank to try to fix it, I noticed mold inside the tank as well!

The flat was lovely, clean with everything we needed and so close to the town.

The only problem we had and it was quite a problem, was the bar, directly below the lounge and bedroom windows. People outside having drinking and smoking until the early hours. It was extremely noisy, we did complain to the bar but they didn’t take any notice. The windows are only single glazed so it sounded like this was all happening in the room. 3 out of the 7 nights we had a problem with this, one night being the bar staff having an altercation outsides until 130 in the morning. Obviously not the letting agency fault but it would put me off returning to the same flat.

Great place to stay with all you could need.

Only problem was where the parking was there was a large tree near that shed lots of sticky, fluffy stuff over the car that was hard to get off.

The description should have pointed out that, despite there being a lift to the first floor, and the apartment being all on one level, there are 4 steps to negotiate between the lift and the apartment.

We had 2 guests with limited mobility in our group, and I had chosen this property because I believed there were no steps to negotiate.

The flat was very clean, spacious and well equipped.

Close to all local amenities, and we would definitely stay here again.

This apartment is really well equipped with everything you need for a comfortable weeks stay.

I’ve now stayed at this apartment on 4 occasions all at different times of the year. The only criticism we have is that the property would massively benefit from double glazing. The condensation in the bedrooms is really bad during the night. It got so bad some mornings the carpet was wet because of this problem. But all in all a very good week had by all.

Comfortable and spaceous centrally located 1st floor apartment.

Lift worked fine. Well equiped, clean and tidy. Parking is close by with allocated/padlocked bay. Pub/tapas bar is opposite. Nice view of moutains from living room.. even nicer hiking up them! Enjoyed our short stay, would stay again.

Great location in centre of town.

Apartment had well equipped kitchen with dishwasher. It was clean and comfy. Working lift was very much appreciated by my mother in law. Bit noisy from.pub goers in the street below on the weekend but not enough to spoil the holiday. Shower in ensuite low pressure but reported abd assured wiuld be looked at before next people went in. Ww would definately book with sykes and use these apartments again.

Can highly recommend the Oddfellow arms pub and restaurant almost right across the road from the apartment for quieter and more family friendly use upstairs food is excellent and prices won't break the bank

The apartment was lovely we were very comfortable.

The only disappointment we had was the view from the front window. It said on the advert a view of the fells, all we could see was a roof top, a little of the fells in the corner of the window but the advert was a little misleading. Also very noisy at nights from below. Didn’t let it spoil the holiday though.

This holiday apartment was was in the town centre so very much in the ideal location.

Everything is in walking distance. We have stayed here before and will definitely be staying in same place again

This apartment is perfectly located, right in the centre of Keswick, and was so clean, warm and comfortable.

The facilities were excellent and I really appreciated the little essentials provided such as washing up liquid, cleaning products, kitchen rolls etc as some self catering lets we have used before do not provide any of this. Little touches like this really make a difference - We will definitely be back and would highly recommend both Amba and Lakes Cottage Holidays to others.
