• "This was a beautiful home for the week for 4 adults and a dog."

  The open plan extension was really comfortable and warm and excellent for the whole party to be in the same room but not crowded. The kitchen was well equipped, clean and a joy to cook in. The heating system was easy to adjust and kept the house really warm for a winter stay. En suite bathrooms for all bedrooms was a bonus. We would definitely stay here again as it was far enough from the centre of town to be peaceful and quiet but close enough to walk in for a meal, shopping or pubs. Very close to Fitz Park for dog walks too.

• "A fabulous find, nestled in to a quiet residential area a 5 minute walk to the town centre."

  Barely any traffic passing by really left us feeling like we were in the middle of nowhere. Off street parking in Keswick is a must and this was just perfect for us. We will be back!

  Thank you for a positive review following you holiday at the Nook. As property owners we endeavour to provide guests with an exceptional experience staying at the property and we are very pleased you had a lovely holiday. We look forward to welcoming you back. Property Owner

  This is a fabulous house in a great location and is perfect for a group of friends or a family. We all love Keswick and have already booked this house for next year.

• "The house is about a 10 minute walk into Keswick, with parking for 2 cars."

  The extension part of the house is nice, some poorly cut flooring around this area and the kitchen could have done with a good clean tbh. The garden was nice as well. The downstairs bedroom smelt badly of damp, we then noticed black mould on the bedding later in the evening which was shocking to say the least when paying these prices. There was also mould on the roman blinds and the en suite smelt worse. The washing machine was thick of black grime in the seals and it reeked as did the dishwasher, the waste catch basket was fully of other peoples food. Avoid this one.

  Very sorry to hear this; nothing of this nature has been reported by our previous guests. We will raise your points with our cleaning team. Needless-to-say we are disappointed that you had this experience and assure you that systems are in place to mitigate for a service you feel is sub-standard. Lakelovers Guest Relations service is available throughout your stay and they are able to address all of the points that you have raised timeously in order to ensure you have the most enjoyable holiday. In order to ensure the highest standards within The Nook, we visit regularly and will be sure to investigate the claims you have made to avoid any future discomfort for our guests. Property Owner

  Enclosed garden and parking for two cars. The welcome basket was a nice touch.

• "The house is well equipped with everything that you could wish for to make your stay enjoyable."

  The owners have put lots of thought into making it a warm house you look forward to returning to at end of day. There were 6 adults in our party and we all had lots of space to do our own thing and no problem with parking for 3 cars. Only issue we had was with the window blinds which appears to be an ongoing problem, especially in one bedroom. It’s in a perfect location for town and walks and we will not hesitate to recommend to friends and we will return. The welcome pack much appreciated, thank you.

• "Excellent accommodation for 3 couples and a dog."

  Loved the layout and the fact that there were 3 en-suites.Kitchen well equipped and cosy snug area. Generous welcome pack. Only a couple of issues : We had asked for the twin beds to be made into a double, which wasn’t done and the occupants of this room found hairs in the bed. There were no oven gloves in the kitchen. We followed the instructions for opening and closing the blinds but the blind at the top of the stairs would not open.Other than that it was an excellent stay and I would recommend to others.

  Kim informed me she would get someone out asap. Later in the week I messaged Kim again and she said she would chase it up. This matter was not resolved and made for uncomfortable sleeping as in view.

  We are sorry the blind issue was not resolved and negatively impacted your stay. We will endeavour to get to the bottom of this and find out the problem with the blind to correct it for future guests. Property Owner

• "Lovely property in a great, quiet location."

  10 minute walk to the hustle and bustle of the town, or to Fitz Park and on to the old railway line. Nice garden, would be great to sit out in dry/warm weather. Excellent water pressure in the showers, but pity toileteries aren't provided. I asked Lakelovers to make up the twin room as a double - this wasn't done, which was a shame as a bigger bed would have been good. Would love to return.

  Thank you for your feedback. We are glad that you enjoyed your stay with us at The Nook. We are sorry that the beds weren't as expected upon arrival, we will pass your comments on to the relevant departments. We hope to welcome you again in the future.

• "Fantastic location with great parking."

  Extension is fabulous and so were the bi-folding doors, the sofas were very comfy. Kitchen was very well equipped. Attention to detail in cleaning was lacking. Lots of cobwebs, very dirty under sofas, utility area could do with a deep clean, crumbs in some of the kitchen cupboards. Found it very strange that there was no hoover. Nice large bedrooms and great ensuite bathrooms. The zip link mattress is very hard and my husbands feet hung over the bed. Lovely outside rear garden, perfect for dogs. Outside furniture was very uncomfortable. Couldn't recycle any bottles or cans. The bin was nearly overflowing and didnt look like it had been emptied in weeks. Did contact Lakelovers and was told to put all rubbish in normal been as it gets separated later. Instructions need updating at the property.

  Thank you for your feedback after your stay at the Nook. The cleanliness issues have been passed to the cleaners, and the general cleanliness of the house will be reviewed by myself in a couple of weeks when I carry out my own quality inspection visit. The beds are all of a standard UK size with the mattresses from the same manufacturer and of the same type. Unfortunately, with regard to the bins, Allerdale Council Refuse Collectors are on strike and have been for a number of months now resulting in the recycling bins not being emptied. This situation is far from ideal but beyond our control. Property Owner

• "This is our second stay at The Nook."

  Great location and very comfortable stay for 6 people. However, few things noted this year: Dust on bedroom surface Sofas loosing support/sinking. Chipped cups. Grass long (we cut this on arrival to enjoy the garden). Both outdoor bins full on arrival and unable to use recycling bin at al ( packaging seen in recycling bin from a different local address). Beds very comfortable however, pillows were very very hard in all rooms. (Resorted to using decorative pillows). Thank you to lake lovers for good communication.

  Thank you for the feedback following your stay at the Nook. Some of the issues you have highlighted are of concern and where applicable, your comments will be forwarded to the respective parties involved in the maintenance and upkeep of the property. Unfortunately, and with regards the bins, the local authority refuse collectors are currently on strike and I understand the recycling bin is not being emptied during the current action. Following your comments regarding the sofa, cups and pillows, these will be reviewed by myself following my stay in the house in a couple of weeks time and any necessary action taken to replace these. Thank you again for bringing these items to my attention and hope these issues haven't detracted too much from your stay or visiting again in the future. Property Owner

We are sorry that you felt disappointed with there not being a welcome pack upon arrival, unfortunately as this is a self catering property not all owners do provide this.

• "Wonderful property, with really good quality facilities/features and lots of space."

  Loved the open plan living space at the back of the property, with bi-fold doors to the garden. Property was very clean and had everything we needed for an enjoyable stay. Perfect location, a quiet street and could walk into the town centre in minutes, plus off road parking was a bonus. The weather was very hot and sunny, so a parasol for the outdoor furniture would have been handy. Otherwise, a fantastic, luxury home, which we would definitely consider staying at again. Thank you.

  Some attention to detail with cleaning required ie cobwebs, dusty skirting boards (I’m only mentioning this as the owner is paying for cleaning so should be aware perhaps a deep clean monthly would resolve this issue ). However it is a lovely property which suited our needs perfectly, lovely garden & close to town whilst also being nice & peaceful. We would definitely stay here again.

• "Myself and my friends really enjoyed our stay in the Nook in terms of its proximity to the town and the overall area."

  In the main we were very satisfied with the facilities in the property with one or two reservations. When we arrived some crockery and cutlery had to be washed before use. We felt that this could have been because the dishwasher was not working. The engineer came out on the Tuesday and resolved this issue which was welcome. Another issue for us was the underfloor heating in the extension part of the property since this was not working despite us implementing the owner’s instructions on how to regulate this.. the rest of.the house was very comfortably warm which we appreciated because it was beautiful weather for walking but bitterly cold. We are apologetic about losing the front door key but have been happy to pay for a replacement. We could foresee a time when we would like to use this property again..

  We are very glad you enjoyed your stay and that the issue with the dishwasher was resolved timeously to avoid inconvenience. Thank you for raising the points regarding the underfloor heating. The system we have in place allows us to monitor its performance remotely and we haven't been alerted to any problems prior to, or after your stay; however, given your feedback, we will keep a close eye on any issues so we can resolve them quickly.

  We contacted someone on the Saturday and the remote lock was removed. How we never felt the underfloor heating in the beautiful extension although we managed to get the heating on in the rest of the house. Everything was extremely good quality’s

  Hello We are disappointed to hear that you were unable to operate thd heating system in the house. To clarify, the heating is not operated remotely nor was it locked. Customers have full control of the heating throughout the house, up to a maximum temperature of 25 degrees within each area which is where the thermostats are locked. Once we were aware of the difficulties you were having, the heating was increased remotely. We trust this inconvenience didn't spoil your weekend break. Property Owner

  A hosepipe would have been good ,to wash off dirty boots,bikes and dogs!! Would definitely stay again, but due to the increase in price, in school holidays this probably wont be possible.

  Thank you for your feedback and glad you enjoyed your stay. With regards the hosepipe, this is stored in the garden shed with the outside tap to the side of the property for all guests use. We appreciate your comments on the cost increase. Unfortunately rental costs are set by Lakelovers annually based on expected market trading conditions. Property Owner

• "House is fabulous, comfortable, clean and beautifully decorated."

  Good position a few minutes from the town . Garden lovely . Love the bifold doors with integrated blinds . Bathrooms are great. Our only gripe was the beds , down to personal preference as we have super king size at home due to arthritis pains and placement of pillows for comfort. We had two children with us so needed the single beds for them . My husbands feet where hanging out of the bed and hitting off the wood frame . The TVs in the bedroom where too small to see the screens from the beds. But as I say personal preference. We have this house booked for four weeks this year and are looking forward to our return .

  Thank you for your feedback on the house and we are pleased you enjoyed your stay. With regards the size of the beds, unfortunately these are very much determined by the size of the rooms, and in order to provide a reasonable space to manoeuver around the beds, we were unfortunately restricted to a standard UK sized double bed.

  The open plan living space was fabulous and it was so nice to open the doors onto the garden and know that our small children and the dog were completely safe. The house had everything we needed for our stay. The only thing you could do with, would be some hooks in the bathrooms for the extra towels that don't fit on the rail - not anything that negatively affected our stay! The voucher for Bryson's was a lovely touch, thank you. I'm sure we will be back again in the future.
