  • "Fell Sweep was the perfect accommodation for our long weekend."

    The house was spotless, simply but beautifully furnished, bright clean bedrooms with plenty of storage, a fully equipped kitchen, we wanted for nothing. Such a warm welcoming place to stay.

  • "We really enjoyed our 3 night stay in this property."

    Everything worked and was easy to use. Very comfortable beds. All the rooms were attractive and clean. Good location and having an off road parking place was a bonus. Downstairs loo useful, as was the hallway for storing day sacks, boots and coats. There were 3 of us- my husband and I and my brother and we chose the property for its extra bathroom and general space. It sleeps 6 people but the downstairs living area could be very cosy for that number of adults especially. We would definitely book this property again.

  • "The property information stated 1 king-size bed, 1 double and 1 twin room but it was 1 king and 2 twin rooms."

    We coped and the property was lovely but it would have been better if it had been as advertised. If it matched the information as per the beds we would definitely go back to stay as location and property were lovely.

    Thank you for your feedback, we can confirm that there is one king size en-suite bedroom and two second floor twin bedrooms. We are so glad that you express that you would return and we look forward to welcoming you again in the future. Kind regards Lakelovers Property Owner

  • "Stayed last year at same place as it so well appointed."

    It seemed the cleaning staff cut a few corners this year, dirt under dinings chairs, dusty areas etc, but toilets and kitchen and all main areas were clean.

  • "The house is clean and well kitted out with kitchen utensils, comfortable and well maintained."

    We did leave a note but in case you don't get the feedback, a light in the lounge and needs the bulb replacing plus another one flickers. In the house bathroom the door lock needs attention and for safety reasons there should be a rail to hold onto to get into the bath/shower. There were two small towels short for 6 persons but as there were only four of us we were ok.

    Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback. We are pleased to see that you enjoyed your stay, and we will pass on your comments to the relevant teams. The Lakelovers Owner Relations Team Property Owner

  • "A great place to stay."

    Very handy for the town. Kitchen very well equipped. Sofas comfortable. Beds very comfy. Great to have a downstairs loo with large hall and shoe/coat storage. A dedicated parking space is a welcome advantage. Great selection of games as well. Will be booking again.

    Thank you for your feedback. We look forward to seeing you again Property Owner

  • "The property is ideally located and has parking which is great."

    There were niggles which could be easily sorted, like the dishwasher shelf, which has been mentioned by others. Also the bed linen is polycotton. I would expect all bedding for this star rating property to be 100% cotton. There were no little things like a couple of teabags and a pint of milk which make you feel a little bit more cared for in your stay. King bed very comfortable. As were most of the singles.

    Thank you for your feedback, and we are pleased that you found the location to your liking, and the beds to be comfy. We will look into the dishwasher shelf. We take all comments on board. Thank you- The Lakelovers Owner Relations Team Property Owner

  • "Dishwasher shelf."

    .. still broken. Television small and basic system. Dvd player broken. Instructions for the door on the fire need to be more obvious. Bed very comfortable. Heating system very efficient. Good position for town. Bedroom would be better with vertical blinds for privacy. The property is not big enough for 6 people.

    Thank you for your useful feedback. Property Owner

    Clean and plenty of the little things, towels, dish cloths etc. that make a house stay that little bit better. Would definitely book again.

  • "We had a lovely stay at this property."

    Kitchen had all the utensils we required and enough storage for our food items. There were only 5 of us so it was comfortable. I think if we'd had an extra person it might have felt a bit squashed. The property had only one parking space but the other 2 cars with our party were able to park easily a bit further along the road so was never an issue. Great base for exploring the local area. Easy access to shops and the mountains. We have really enjoyed our time here.

  • "Clean, well cared for property with everything we needed for a comfortable stay."

    We found the large hallway with wood floor helpful; coming back wet or muddy from walks we weren’t worried about getting back in without ruining carpets etc. and were able to easily keep it clean. We were particularly grateful there was parking as finding a space on the road in the area looked to be difficult. Would recommend.

  • "Lovely house in Keswick, great location and it was nice to have off road parking by the side of the house."

    The house was clean and comfortable and the kids loved the bedrooms. The only comment I would make is that one of the dishwasher drawers was a little temperamental! We had a great stay, thank you.

    Thank you for your kind comments, we are so pleased to see that you had a great stay at Fell Sweep. We will ask our Maintenance Team to look at the the dishwasher. We hope to welcome you again. The Lakes Cottage Holidays Owner Relations Team Property Owner

  • "The property is well placed and the car space invaluable."

    The house is clean and tidy, bright, comfortable and has plenty of kitchen equipment should you want to cook. The little rear garden gets plenty of sun and has a little table and chairs. The living flame fire in the lounge was lovely, the sofas are very comfy. It is only about a 5 minute walk into town, a couple of minutes walk to Fitz Park. The twin bedrooms are bright and light. The bathroom is lovely with a huge bath, light, bright and spacious. The en-suite bedroom is bright, nicely decorated with plenty of storage, including a large chest of drawers and a wardrobe with plenty of hangers. I found the mattress on the bed to be quite uncomfortable as it is very firm/hard and had to use a duvet from one of the single beds to make a mattress topper. The shower is very powerful which is great, however you cannot adjust the shower head which is fine if you’re 6’ tall, I’m not! Apart from the couple of gripes, really enjoyed our stay, would still book again and recommend to others.

    Thank you for your feedback. We will pass on your comments regarding the mattresses to the owner. Property Owner
