“A lovely top floor apartment on the edge the town centre with some fine views of the surrounding fells particularly in the setting sun light.”
It is in a quiet spot but very convenient for accessing the facilities in Keswick being close to the local supermarkets and town centre amenities but having its own parking space. The apartment was comfortable, thoughtfully and generously equipped. Although more expensive for that time of year than most of the many Sykes cottages where we have stayed during recent years in other parts of the country it was probably the best.
Although everything was there to be found, a guest welcome folder covering the usual familiarity issues would have made life easier in getting started. At the time of our visit there are some long term major construction works affecting roads into Keswick from the A66- perhaps some warning of these could be made in the key collection instructions (from Sykes offices in middle of the town centre on a market day) to help future users plan their arrival !
Whilst the Sykes website has good search facilities, once signed up for booking, expect many emails and popup adverts thereafter, some of which have little relevance, which are somewhat irritating.
