This enchanting stone cottage has been beautifully decorated throughout and occupies a breathtaking elevated position with sunny south-west aspect just in front of Walla Crag and overlooking the beautiful Borrowdale Valley.

Hi Elizabeth, Thank you for your review. Deer Close Cottage is in a superb location. So close to the lake, with plenty of walks nearby. The garden at Deer Close Cottage is a great place to spot lots of local wildlife including red squirrels, pheasants and of course deer. We hope you had a fantastic stay in Keswick. Best wishes, Keswick Cottages

A peaceful location in a beautiful area

We had a lovely stay at Deer Close Cottage in Keswick in July. It was a nostalgic return for us as we actually stayed next door 16 years previously when it offered B&B's!
This is a perfect cottage for 2, nestled on the edge of quiet woods, offering stunning views of Catbells opposite and just a 5 minute walk to the lake. We had everything we needed for a relaxing evening after active days walking and cycling. Warm, quiet and comfortable with generous living space and close to Keswick.

Very comfortable cottage where everything was thoughtfully provided. Excellent peaceful location with wildlife visiting outside the backdoor: a pair of pheasants, a deer and variety of birds were regulars. The nearby footpath enabled us to reach the lake easily for walks, bike rides, swims and boat trips as well as easy access to Keswick town. All enhanced by the beautiful weather. Communication was efficient, easy and informative. Very friendly and helpful when I called at late notice to book an extra night.

Hi Sue, Thank you for your lovely review of Deer Close Cottage. The visiting wildlife make this cottage even more idyllic than it already is. The quiet location close to the lake is perfect for people who are wanting to stay somewhere a bit more peaceful but have the convenience of the town being close by. We hope you've had a fantastic stay and hope to welcome you back. Best wishes, Keswick Cottages

Delightful first stay at Deer Close Cottage. Very comfortable, well equipped and great location with lovely views from the property. We were able to walk into Keswick along the footpaths, yet still felt tucked away in the privacy of the countryside. Local wildlife was fun to observe and enhanced the holiday. It was very quiet and peaceful, the facilities were all that we needed and it was especially nice to be able to soak in the bath after a day of fell walking.

I have already shared details of the cottage with a friend who is planning a trip to the Lake District next year.

A couple of (minor) points -
i) the sofa is quite soft and offers little support, although the scatter cushions did help.
ii) one of the saucepans required cleaning as something had been burnt on the base of the pan and a small frying pan seems to be losing its non-stick surface.

Had a wonderful stay at Deer Close Cottage, Keswick. Superb location and wonderful cottage. The team at Keswick Cottages couldn't have been more helpful. Booking through them is very easy and great to have a real person to talk to on the phone when you need them. Many thanks
