• "We recently stayed at this lovely holiday flat in Keswick and were impressed with many aspects."

  The flat was spacious, spotlessly clean, and equipped with all necessary amenities, which made our stay very comfortable. Having two bathrooms was especially convenient, and the private parking space was a huge plus given Keswick's limited parking. However, while everything else was perfect, we found the settees in the living room very uncomfortable. Unfortunately, this impacted our ability to relax and enjoy the space fully, leading us to leave a bit earlier than planned. With an upgrade in seating, this property would be ideal for a comfortable, extended stay in Keswick.

• "The apartment was more spacious than we were expecting."

  Good location. Lovely newly appointed bathrooms. Excellent accommodation. Great views of Skiddaw from the lounge. Very good to have an allocated parking space. Reported to the agents a problem with TV aerial as TV reception intermittent. Would return again.

• "Amba is a lovely flat in the centre of Keswick with the bonus of an allocated parking space."

  The flat was bigger than I thought and very clean and the kitchen was well equipped. There was a little noise from the bar below but if you want to stay in the centre of town you have to expect this. It didn't bother us though. You definitely don't need to use your car to go walking and exploring. We loved it and have booked the same place twice for next year. The only slight negative is the sofas. They could do with being replaced as it felt like they had sunk and were a bit uncomfortable. It hasn't put us off booking again though! A great flat in the centre of a beautiful town.

• "When we arrived the lounge curtains were hanging off the track we had to use clothes pegs to hold them together at night."

  We reported this several times and the fact that the door into the flat was not locking properly. Although the door was fixed the day after the man even coming in on his day off to fix it the curtains were still not looked at when we left a week later. I did ring up several times to ask for these to be looked at even asking to speak to the manager and was told it could take up to 2 days to be able to speak to a manager !! Considering we paid over £800 for the week we thought this was very bad customer service.

• "Lovely clean and well equipped apartment, in a great position, with a handy parking space across the road."

  Only slight negatives, were the noise from the taco bar next door until midnight or so, & the very squeaky floor boards below and above us. Also, a coffee table &/or a pouffe in front of the two settees would have been very useful for us personally. We found the leather settees a bit cold & slightly uncomfortable, but on a positive, the heating was good, & the beautiful Xmas tree was very much appreciated with it being Xmas week. All in all, a good apartment.

• "Great apartment with everything we needed right in the centre of town."

  Only slight drawback is the early checkout, especially on a Sunday morning… 9.00am & have the car moved also. The reason seems to be extra cleaning due to Covid 19- whilst I applaud the cleanliness I do think a slightly later checkout would be very welcome by many guests- it all seemed like a massive rush at the end of our break.

• "First the positives: -Very central property, handy to have parking nearby."

  -Kitchen well stocked; bathrooms small but decent, recently refurbished. -Owners provide a wealth of dvds, books, guides, games etc… lovely touch. -Everything clean and worked fine -Comfy beds! Now the less good: -Noise!!! Terrible soundproofing. On the Friday and Saturday nights the Tapas Bar outside all windows plays loud music outside and has people talking loudly until 0030. Listing should mention this. With all windows closed, it kept us awake. Quieter the rest of week. On Tuesday night, the people in the (holiday) flat above Amba decided to do washing between midnight and 0230am. Machine so loud it might as well have been in our bedroom. You will literally hear every footstep from the flat upstairs. May not bother you; it really grated with us. -Some areas looking a bit dated and tired, notably carpets and cushions. -0900 checkout is unwelcome, especially having been kept up by noise the night before. But then to ask guests to empty the bins and recycling too? Come on… this takes the p***. Overall: the 4 stars is for the flat, minus the noise issues. Decent enough if you don’t mind noise and/or go to bed late, but we’d not return.

  Thank you for taking the time to provide your feedback. We are sorry to read about the noise issues you had. The building contains both residential and holiday lets and so there is a message in the communal hallway requesting rubbish is taken to external bins. This is due to previous holiday makers leaving bin bags in the communal areas. The check-out time has recently be changed to 10am and a note has been left on the dining table to this effect, in-case the update was not received prior to pre-holiday e-mails were sent. We are glad that you enjoyed the central location of the property and all that the property had to offer. Lakelovers Owner Relations Team Property Owner

• "The accommodation was spacious and really lovely, it had everything we needed, from a well stocked kitchen of utensils/crockery, dining table, washing machine, to netflix, when the weather sadly wasn’t that great."

  Able to control the heating ourselves was great, at times it was very cold outside, but thankfully much warmer inside. A lovely modern bathroom and on suite, modern furniture, very clean and tidy accommodation. Beds were comfy and furnishings, curtains/bedding etc were great quality. Location to the centre/shops was brilliant. This was our 5th stay in Keswick, we love it so much. The only minor negative feedback is the booking out time of 9am and also having to leave the car park at 9am too. Never had to leave this early in other accommodation. Meant the last day (a busy Saturday) felt sadly very rushed and as we couldn’t find a space without additional cost, we came home earlier than planned and as usual, (without our end of holiday cafe breakfast treat) which kind of felt we cut short our break away.

  It is well equipped for most needs. On the down side, the checkout time of 9am is a never-have-I-ever had to before thing. It's shame, to have to get up and get out, when the new occupants won't be checking in until 4pm. This has a poor last day of the holiday vibe. Also, there were a few cobwebs, and the bathroom radiator was dusty/mucky.

  There is no igniter on the cooker hob top which meant we couldn’t cook anything in a pan. Also this is not very safe as while we were trying to get the cooker to work obviously gas is escaping. Secondly the tumble dryer on the washer doesn’t work - this meant that after three very wet days in the lakes we had wet clothes all over the apartment trying to dry them - we appreciate that dryers aren’t cheap to run but if there is one you expect it to work Finally, there is nothing that the owner can do about it but the noise from the restaurant downstairs is much greater than we expected - not so much guests but the operations such as emptying the bottle bank after closing or very early in the morning

  The car parking is a little tight but fine. We would consider staying again. The singular downside is the ES Tapas Bar opposite with outside seating which is below the apartment windows in the alleyway which was nosey. It would be better if the outside seating was only allowed until 21:00. The staff were also turning the music up inside at 22:30 until 23:00 with all the windows open, which was annoying.

  Location of this apartment is fantastic and right in the heart of Keswick town centre. Spacious accommodation and ideal for a couple or a family of 4 people. Just to expand on others comments that it is right next to a Tapas Bar but there was little noise from there only people chatting and this never caused us any issues even with the windows open. Only thing I would say to be aware of is that the space to park your car is a little tight so just beware if you have a larger car but other than that a fantastic place to stay. So good we have already booked the same place for next year.

  There is a bar next door with outdoor seating, however patrons do seem to leave quietly at 11pm so there is a background noise till this time, but personally we didn't find it obtrusive, you are after all in the centre of town. The en suite is a little on the small side but quite adequate for it's purpose, the car parking is in a dedicated car park across, a short trek if you need the use of your car during your stay & we would consider staying there again.

  The big let down was the noise and smells. The Bar es tapas bar is located across the narrow alleyway and a fairly large pop up gazebo was erected every day , around 4.00 pm and dismantled around 11.30 pm. The noise from the people availing themselves of this facility was very, very loud and very annoying, you would almost think that they were sitting in the lounge of the apartment. Unfortunately, we both have lung problems and need to have adequate ventilation, so the windows needed to be open and the strong smells from the very spicy food was quite overpowering and nauseating. We also experienced much thumping about from the above apartment, from children running around, which started quite early in the morning - no lie ins for us!! I am sorry to say that these problems really diminished our enjoyment of our stay in Keswick.

  The property was well equipped with good quality cutlery and crockery. The apartment had good wifi throughout, the TV in the living room has iPlayer. Shame there isn't a TV in the twin bedroom. There was also a good selection of books and DVDs available. The flat also has its own dedicated parking space in a car park across the road. However, if you have mobility difficulties this property may not be for you. The lift is very small (3 people can just about squeeze in), and there are three steps in the corridor on the way to the apartment. It is quite a trail from your car to the apartment, though there is a loading bay outside the building.

  There was plenty of space for our family of 4 and our Pointer. However, the main double bed is very uncomfortable (you would do better on the floor or on one of the sofas) also, the tapas restaurant (located opposite the living room, but at ground level) is noisy Friday and Saturday nights - and when the weather is sunny - so be aware of this if you are coming with younger children. Finally, the curtains in the twin room are very thin, in contrast to the other rooms, you may need to hang something over the window to keep the light out during summer evenings. Apart from these downsides Amba is a great place to spend you time in Keswick!

• "This apartment is perfectly located, right in the centre of Keswick, and was so clean, warm and comfortable."

  The facilities were excellent and I really appreciated the little essentials provided such as washing up liquid, cleaning products, kitchen rolls etc as some self catering lets we have used before do not provide any of this. Little touches like this really make a difference - We will definitely be back and would highly recommend both Amba and Lakes Cottage Holidays to others.
