Catbells is a modern apartment in a quiet but central location. A perfect base for exploring the area.

Great location for a walk into Keswick and really helpful to have a parking space. Lovely views of Cat Bells from the lounge window and a well equipped apartment. Unfortunately our stay was impacted upon by finding on arrival an oven and tray in an unclean state. The somewhat small fridge, especially for a 4 person apartment, was missing the bottle/milk tray which had clearly snapped off and we found underneath the sink. Although Keswick Cottages were responsive, sending round a maintenance man reasonably quickly, he was unable to replace the tray as he had to order parts.

Thank you very much for taking the time to review your stay. We are so sorry that there were a couple of shortcomings this time and for any inconvenience caused to your holiday. We are a small local business genuinely caring about delivering the best possible service and experience to our guests, so as soon as you brought the problems to our attention a member of the team popped round to replace the oven tray and take a look at the milk tray. They were unable to repair the existing tray, so they sourced the new part and ordered it immediately with the soonest delivery possible. Please be assured we have carried out additional training with the cleaner who cares for the apartment, including reporting any breakages. As a valued returning customer we of course hope that this would not deter you from returning to the apartment in the future. Catbells is a newer property and the owners have really gone the extra mile to ensure it is a beautiful place for guests to spend their holiday. We hope to welcome you again very soon!

Enjoyed our stay at Catbells & Keswick, great location for the town. Apartment excellent although if you have some mobility issues stairs to the top floor may be a problem. Comfortable stay and we would return.

Impressively decorated apartment in the centre of Keswick with a dedicated parking space.
Very comfortable beds and quality linen and towells, very quiet location which is few minutes from the shops.
Really enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay again, the only down side was the stairs up to the apartment which were a challenge after a long walk and not suitable for anyone with mobility issues.
Keswick Cottages were helpful in answering our queries before our stay, a real 5 star holiday (and the weather was fantastic for April!) The directions to the apartments are misleading, it is next to the Co-Op and not Stanger Street!

Hi, Stephen! Thank you so much for your lovely and detailed review. We’re delighted to hear you enjoyed your stay at Catbells and appreciated the stylish dĂ©cor, comfortable beds, quality linen and towels, and the peaceful setting despite being right in the centre of Keswick. Having a dedicated parking space really is a bonus, and we’re pleased it added to your overall experience. Thank you as well for highlighting the stairs. You’re absolutely right that access involves a climb, which can feel more challenging after a long walk and may not be suitable for guests with mobility issues — your comment will certainly be helpful for future visitors. We’re especially pleased to hear our team was helpful in answering your queries before arrival and that, combined with some fantastic April weather, it all added up to a real five?star holiday for you. Thank you also for pointing out the directions; the apartments are indeed located next to the Co?op rather than on Stanger Street, and we appreciate you flagging this so we can review how clearly this is explained. Google Maps can sometimes miss buildings/other blocks, so although the cottage is to the left of Stanger Street, CoOp is a better marker. We’d be very happy to welcome you back again in the future. Best wishes, Keswick Cottages

Second stay at Catbells!

This is our second stay at Catbells and again we had a lovely time. So convenient with everything on your doorstep, yet tucked away in a very quiet spot. Love having breakfast looking at the spectacular view of Catbells!
Thanks again!

We’re delighted to hear you enjoyed your second stay just as much and that the combination of a peaceful setting with everything so close at hand continues to work perfectly for you. Having breakfast while taking in those spectacular Catbells views really is a special way to start the day. Thank you again for coming back, and we hope to welcome you for many more stays in the future. Best wishes, Keswick Cottages

A rare find!

We have stayed in many places in Keswick and surrounding areas but Catbells definitely tops them all! A fabulous apartment with a beautifully thought out interior and views from every window. We loved it! Super comfy and warm, with everything you need, plus allocated parking. We would love to stay here again. Thank you Keswick Cottages.

Hello, both of you! Thank you so much for being the first to review Catbells, and for leaving such a lovely review! This means so much to both us and the owner. To read that you love the cottage as much as we all do means so much, and we hope that all of the guests to come love it just as much. The interior design in this property is unrivalled, and the location really can't be beat. Views from every window, seconds from both local supermarkets (literally) all while being in an incredibly peaceful part of town. We cannot wait to welcome you back for stay number two; seems like you've found your new regular spot! Best wishes, Keswick Cottages
