  • "Great property and location."

    Due to a wasp nest we could not use the back door. Lovely back room but we struggled with 4 of us so 6 must be interesting. The room is a good size but not enough seats.

  • "2nd stay at this lovely bungalow."

    Spacious and well laid out with lovely views in a quiet area of Keswick, however once again we were unable to enjoy the rear garden which was very overgrown. Additionally the wasps nest outside the back door meant we only let the dogs out to the front of the property as wasps were coming in if we opened the door. A few more hangers would be beneficial for 6 people but this is a theme in most holiday rentals.

    Thank you for your review and providing valuable feedback. We had a previous report of a wasps nest at the front of the property and arranged for that to be treated immediately. We were not aware of another nest at the back so will make arrangements for that to be treated as soon as possible. We have a gardener who is supposed to come regularly to maintain the grass so I am sorry that this wasn’t the case during your stay. Many thanks again for your feedback. Property Owner

  • "The property was very comfortable in a fabulous location."

    The garden really did need the lawn cut and some of the shrubs and apple trees in the back garden trimmed back. Additionally, the vacuum cleaner provided needs to be replaced as it's power was limited. Other than that, we had a wonderful stay and would love to visit again.

  • "Our group ranged in age from 50 to 84 and a dog - all of us had a lovely holiday."

    The beds were very comfortable and there was plenty of space for us all to spread out. It's a great location - just a short walk into the lovely town and all its amenities. Highly recommended.

  • "The property is well organised and in a great location, with fantastic views from the lounge/dinner."

    Only downsides were... That there appears to be some water pressure issue, when all bathrooms are being used around the same time and after. Check-in email received, asking how we've initially found the property, but no response received from this account. When explaining concerns with a wasps nest in the poach eaves, above the key box. Had to wash all cutlery and a few other items, before we could use it as it had baked on food on it. Also, emptied kitchen bin when leaving and found the the liner was just dropped in on rotten fruit and other rubbish. As we were leaving, we didn't have time to clean up someone else's mess

  • "Having visited Keswick before we wanted to bring the family ."

    My mum is disabled so accommodation on one level was needed. Tandara was perfect , well presented in a perfect location for Keswick . We all had a great holiday at Tandara. The other bonus it's pet friendly . We would definately consider booking Tandara again for future trips to Keswick.

    Well located. Beds could have been a little bit more comfortable but that could be an individual thing. Overall an excellent holiday.

  • "The property was lovely, but unfortunately the first day we arrived we took an print out of the email information with regards key lock number,but when we arrived it didnt work i rang the mobile contact number and they told me it was the right number, and they would get a handy man to come out, after an hour of waiting in the car with my disabilities and my disabled sister in law,i downloaded the sykes app and the key number on their was totally different to the email print out,this worked, so i rang sykes to let them know and they didnt know why there was a different number on the app as they still had the wrong number on their system,they were going to look into it but i havent heard back,so it spoilt our first night so please make sure that anyone else has the right number for the key lock included in their email confirmation."

    But other than that everything was great and only a five minute drive from keswick town centre.

    Beautiful views from the bungalow and had a lovely enclosed garden, surrounding the whole property. The bedrooms rooms were spacious and comfortable and all other rooms were decorated in a stylish manner. Fantastic rent for a larger group or family. Would highly recommend.
