  • "The communications were great from the outset and were consistently so throughout the stay."

    The accommodation was really excellent, better even than we were expecting and really suited the group that we were staying there with. I couldn't fault anything at all, we really didn't want to leave!

    As that is so nice to hear, we are so pleased you enjoyed your stay x Property Owner

  • "Heatherlea was clean and comfortable for all our family and the owners made us feel very welcome."

    Plenty of crockery and kitchen equipment. Good assortment of board games. Couldn't figure out the heating instructions but used the gas fire for a couple of evenings. Great home from home for our family week away. Easy walking distance to town and loads of things to do. Wildlife park, boat trip, kayaking and hiking to name a few. Pencil museum very interesting.

  • "This property is excellent."

    It has an extremely well equipped kitchen, large dining table and a lovely courtyard space to eat out on warm evenings. The beds are all comfortable and all the bathrooms are well set out. The 2 sitting rooms have large comfortable sofas and chairs. The added bonus is parking for 2 cars in the side lane. The owner called us to let us know the property was ready ahead of 3pm and we were welcomed with home made scones and biscuits and a bottle of Prosecco. I would highly recommend this property.

    The two parking spaces were a real bonus considering the parking in the area. The location, walking distance from all Keswick facilities was also much appreciated.

  • "Heatherlea is situated a short walk from the town centre."

    It’s very comfortable and beautifully maintain with everything you need. We could not fault it. The kitchen is superb. We had a chef in our party who thought it the perfect kitchen for a holiday break. The 4 bedrooms all with access to their own en-suites or bathroom were an excellent size and very comfortable. Both sitting rooms were spacious and the whole house tastefully presented. The small garden at the back was ideal for breakfast and for sitting out in the evening on a good day and we were blessed with beautiful weather. Parking was not a problem for 2 cars. The hosts left a lovely tin of home made scones and delicious shortbread and kept in contact before our arrival and before we left. Communication was excellent with both them and Sykes Cottages. We loved our stay and would not hesitate to book again. Many thanks to our host.

    It was a pleasure to have you stay, we are so pleased you had a wonderful weekend x Property Owner

  • "Heatherlea is a fantastic cottage in Keswick."

    It is really spacious with plenty of living spaces and games and books which kept us all entertained. The views out of the first floor lounge are beautiful looking out over the fells. The kitchen is one of the most well equipped kitchens we have ever stayed in with lovely little touches of biscuits and scones which we enjoyed after coming back from walks. We would definitely return, thank you Tonia for a wonderful stay!
