    The cottage was spacious and had all the necessary amenities for a comfortable stay. the well-equipped kitchen made it easy for us to prepare our own meals. the location was fantastic, being close to the town center and within easy reach of all the attractions. the staff at the key collection point were friendly and helpful.

    There was also a slight smell of dog when we first arrived, which was a bit off-putting. Lastly, the water pressure in the shower could have been better.

    The location of Fountain Cottage was perfect for exploring the beautiful surroundings. We enjoyed being able to easily access the town center and the mountains. The cottage itself was spacious and had all the necessary amenities, including a well-equipped kitchen and a comfortable bed. The big TV was a bonus for relaxing evenings. Despite some minor drawbacks, such as dated furniture and a slight smell of dog upon arrival, our overall stay was enjoyable. The shower pressure could have been better, but it was manageable. We also would have appreciated more toilet rolls provided for our group of six. However, these small inconveniences did not overshadow the positive aspects of our stay. we had a pleasant experience at Fountain Cottage and would recommend it to others.

    The cottage was very well equipped with a modern TV and WiFi, which was great for relaxing evenings. The location was superb, with the town centre being just a short walk away and the mountains close by for some beautiful hikes. One of the best aspects was the comfortable sofas and bed, providing a cozy and restful stay.

    Some of the furniture in the cottage was a little dated and in need of refurbishment. There was also a slight smell of damp throughout the property that couldn't be identified.

    I had a blast engaging in activities like golfing, cycling, and fishing. The free WiFi at the property was a nice touch. The nearby Go Ape Whinlatter Forest Park and Buttermere were worth the visit.

    Absolutely loved the mysterious smell of damp throughout the property. It added a unique touch to my stay.

    We got great value for our money at Fountain Cottage. The room was spacious and comfortable, with amazing views from the attic room. The location was perfect, close to the center of town, and the staff treated us well.

    Food for breakfast could have been better, with more variety or options.

    The location of Fountain Cottage was absolutely ideal, with the stunning mountains close by and the town center just a stone's throw away. It made exploring the area so convenient and enjoyable. The layout and style of the property were also very appealing, giving it a cozy and welcoming atmosphere. The kitchen was well equipped, which made cooking meals a breeze. Oh, and let's not forget about the little chocolates on the pillows - such a delightful touch!

    I must admit that there were a couple of downsides during my stay. the shower in the bathroom was quite weak, and at one point, the rain shower even fell off as it wasn't properly attached to the wall.

    The holiday home at Fountain Cottage in Keswick is a dream come true for budget travelers like me. The fully equipped kitchen is a godsend. I could whip up my own meals and save some serious dough!

    Honestly, the only thing I wasn't crazy about was having two bathrooms. But hey, that's just my opinion.

    The location of this accommodation was absolutely fantastic. It was so close to both the mountains and the town center, making it a perfect central base for exploring. the staff at the key collection point were also very friendly and polite, providing a warm welcome. the house was spacious, perfect for a family of five, and had a lovely, warm ambiance. the big TV was a great bonus, perfect for relaxing after a day of exploring.

    The cleanliness of the house was not up to par. the linen and towels were decent but could have been cleaner, and there were some areas that needed a more thorough cleaning.
