  • "We loved our stay at Stone Ledges and would happily return!"

    We are a family of three with a small child (5 years old), and so the cottage was perfect for us. I don’t think you could find a more perfect location on Keswick, as it is in the middle of the town and acted as a great base for our holiday. Furniture is fairly basic, but comfortable. We are both tall and had no issues with the height of the ceilings. The upstairs floors are a little wonky but that is due to the age of the cottage and adds to the charm! The cottage was clean on arrival. I would suggest that some basic provisions such as tea, coffee etc are made available to guests on arrival, perhaps in a little welcome basket? That would have been wonderful after we’d spent such a long time travelling and didn’t have time to go to the shops in the evening, but it wasn’t a big issue, just a “nice to have”. The bathroom is lovely and big, with plenty of towels provided. The kitchen is compact but has everything you need to prepare and cool meals. Car-parking is very close and it was a big weight off our mind to know the permit was done before we even arrived - that’s a big perk which is great! Owe really enjoyed our stay and would absolutely recommend it to anyone looking to stay in Keswick.

    Thank you for such a detailed and thoughtful review! We're absolutely delighted that Stone Ledges was perfect for your family of three and that the central location worked so well as your holiday base. It's lovely to hear you appreciated the period features like the old characterful floors - we think they add such charm too! Your suggestion about a welcome basket is brilliant and we'll definitely consider adding that for future guests if we can make it happen. We're so pleased the parking permit took the stress away and that you found everything clean and well-equipped. You'd be very welcome back with your little one anytime! Property Owner

    Thank you for your lovely review! We're so pleased you enjoyed your stay and found the cottage clean and comfortable.

    . right in the middle of Keswick, handy for everything. Cottage lovely and cosy with every amenity and spotlessly clean.

    Thank you for taking the time to review your stay! We're delighted you found Stone Ledges exactly as described and appreciated its charm despite the compact size. That location just off the high street really is ideal for exploring everything Keswick has to offer. You'd be very welcome to return anytime! Property Owner

  • "Nice central location, surprisingly quiet in spite of being within a few yards of 3 busy pubs."

    The owner was particularly helpful when there was a wifi outage which affected the town, not just the property.

  • "Our first time staying in Keswick and Stone Ledges was a perfect choice."

    Situated off the high street but in a quiet lane the cottage was warm, spotless and extremely comfortable with all the facilities you would need for a self-catering holiday. There are many walks straight from the door and we were spoilt for choice on how to fill our week. We did a nice railway track walk from Keswick to Threlkeld and another walk in Dobbs Wood and a favourite leisurely walk along the lake shore to Friars Crag. And we also had a chance to see a production at the Theatre by the Lake which was real treat. Keswick has a lovely market town feel with plenty of restaurants, pubs and shops to visit just minutes from the cottage. A bonus with this property is the permit parking which enabled us to leave the car safely in the car park all week which we did. We would love to return at some point in the future.

    Thank you so much for your kind review! We truly appreciate your detailed feedback—it means the world to us as we continue to make the cottage as comfortable and welcoming as possible for our guests. We're thrilled to hear that you had an enjoyable and relaxing stay, and we look forward to welcoming you back again in the near future. Property Owner

  • "Lovely little cottage in a very central location."

    Literally seconds from the High St but very quiet. Clean and tidy, and a very comfortable stay. It’s worth noting Poplar St is not accessible by car so from the nearest car park you have to walk up an adjacent street, along the high st and back down Poplar St. Would have been handy to know before booking as we had a fair amount of luggage. However the cottage is lovely inside and we enjoyed our stay. The car parking permit worked perfectly too.

  • "A perfect holiday cottage."

    Stone Ledges couldn’t be more central, and the cottage is warm, well appointed and spotlessly clean. Although it’s only a few yards from the Square, the cottage is really quiet at night. We’ll be back next year we hope!

  • "We had a great time, location was amazing, it was great to be in the middle of everything and comfortable space to hide from the rain when the weather turned :)."

    You cannot access directly from central carpark as this side of poplar Street is gated. From central carpark head to the keswick main highstreet and the entrance is down the alleyway next to the old keswickian chip shop.

    Hi Amy, Many thanks for your positive feedback. We are very glad you enjoyed your stay in Stone Ledges and being in the centre of everything. We hope to welcome you back in the future. Property Owner

    It is so central to the high street whilst being super quiet! The communication with the owners re: parking was great and was superb to not have to worry about parking. I can’t recommend enough!!

  • "This is my second time staying at Stone Ledges."

    It is a lovely old cottage which has a really cozy feel to it. Heating and hot water system work great. It’s very well equipped and very clean. The open plan layout works really well. Upstairs the beds are comfy and the showers is decent. The cottage is tucked down a really quiet side street very close to the Main Street in Keswick so it’s very convenient for all the amenities in town yet tucked away nicely. Car parking in the main Keswick car park is conveniently close. Owners of the property are very helpful and efficient. Highly recommend
