“Ashness house is an excellent property with good facilities.”

Parking nearby can be quite difficult at times, but apart from that the house is well appointed and the location is great for Keswick Town Centre and for walking the Northern Lakeland Fells.

“It would be a good idea to have a small dustpan and brush under the stairs so that guests can use it.”

Also a lot of the knobs on the wardrobes need replacing. Only little things but important I think.

“I stayed at Ashness House for week August Bank Holiday with 85yr old mother and 6 other family members and the dog.”

It was perfect. There were so many little hidden touches- oven gloves, aprons, DVDs, games, maps, even flasks etc. The location is great-5min walk to keswick centre. The street parking can be a bit tricky but we managed to get spaces outside the house. Loved it.

“Perfect location, with easy walk into town, with plenty of street parking.”

The ground floor area of the property was cold and draughty, this was not helped by having no draught proof seal around the front entrance door. You could see daylight through the gap and the door rattled when windy, especially at night. This kept us awake initially, thinking someone was trying to open the door.
