Hi, Graham! Thank you for your review of Barf Cottage--short and sweet, we love to see it. Was there anything you particularly loved?

Highly recommend

Lovely cottage especially if you like period charm. Kitchen well equipped and a great selection of books. Short walk to Keswick, lingholm and the walk around Derwentwater. Lots of interesting places a short drive away. So good to have a private parking space. With only one smallish car it was easy to park. My only criticism I found the pillows really hard but that could be a personal preference.

A cosy cottage close to Keswick

Barf Cottage is a cosy, well equipped and comfortable cottage from where to explore the Lake District and not far from the centre of Keswick.. It has designated parking for a car which is always desirable. Have stayed many times and have already booked for 2026
Respuesta de VrboOwner el 17 de nov de 2025
Hello, Graham! That's what we like to hear! Barf Cottage comes with the perfect blend of character and modern luxury, with the original black lead range open fire, cushioned window seat and shutters pairing nicely with the flatscreen TV, heated towel rails, and, of course, free WiFi! We're so excited to see you again in 2026. Best wishes, Keswick Cottages

Beautiful cottage

This is a lovely cottage, clean and tastefully decorated, perfect for a family break with dogs. The cottage is in a quiet location just a 15 minute walk from Keswick, has allocated parking and a small garden to let the dogs out. We have stayed here many times and undoubtedly will stay again!
Respuesta de VrboOwner el 16 de sept de 2025
Hi Nicola, Thank you for your review. Barf Cottage in Portinscale is the ideal cosy cottage for a break in the Lakes. The village is quiet but the hustle and bustle of Keswick is only a short walk or car journey away. There is a bus service that runs through the village if you would prefer to leave the car parked up. We were thrilled to welcome you back and we will hopefully see you again soon. Best wishes, Keswick Cottages

Excellent cottage

We went as a four and stayed at Barf cottage, for a long weekend, the cottage was lovely, beds very comfy and found it lovely and warm! Easy access to Keswick. Lots of cutlery and pots and pans , the only criticism would be it would have been nice to have a little cupboard essentials ie: oil, vinegar, foil, matches for fire and cleaning essentials so people can clean the cottage if needed. Other than that nothing we had a lovely time thank you .
Respuesta de VrboOwner el 17 de dic de 2025
Hi, Sharon, We're so glad that you enjoyed your visit to Barf Cottage! The cottage retains all the original features of a traditional Lakeland home, yet at the same time offers modern fixtures, comfort and style. We hope to see you again soon. Maybe you'd like to add our 'basics', or cleaning packs to your next stay! They're very handy, and are placed in the cottage before your arrival. We even offer a 'breakfast' pack! Best wishes, Keswick Cottages

September break in the Lakes

We had a lovely relaxing stay at Barf cottage. Cottage is well equipped and well located. We struggled to get a steady temperature in the shower but otherwise it was perfect. We had a lot of rain during our week so we were glad the cottage was comfortable and quiet. Great communication from Keswick Cottages. We hope to return.
Respuesta de VrboOwner el 23 de sept de 2025
Hi Frances, Thank you for your review. We have certainly had a lot of rain recently but Barf Cottage is a lovely cottage that can be made extra cosy when you light the fire. There is also the Farmer's Arms pub just up the road where you will receive a warm welcome plus food and drink. We hope we can welcome you back again soon. Best wishes, Keswick Cottages

Brilliant location, property and facilities

Had a brilliant time at Barf cottage, brilliant location. Within walking distance to Keswick and Braithwaite for pubs and food. People were complaining about food in Farmers Rest whilst having a drink so didn’t bother eating there. Cottage had everything you could want for self catering break and more

Thank you for taking the time to write a lovely 5* review of Barf Cottage, it sounds like you had a fantastic stay! The ideal property for groups of friends, couples and families, Barf is a characterful property central to all the surrounding towns and villages. With parking and outdoor spaces to soak up the sunshine it is a lovely Lake District retreat! We hope to welcome you back in the future! Best Wishes, Keswick Cottages

We enjoyed our stay at barf cottage it was in a great location not far from Keswick, whinlatter and a great pub on the doorstep serving good food and beer Accommodation was great with nice comfy beds, spacious kitchen and lounge The only thing I would want to change is a bigger and smart TV in the lounge, but apart from that we enjoyed our stay and would stay again and would recommend

Lovely cottage for a Christmas break

A super cottage in a fantastic location. Our recent stay in Barf cottage exceeded expectations. It was warm, clean and had everything we needed. Even though the weather was rather damp it was so comforting to return to a warm and cosy cottage and have an open fire in the evenings. Excellent location for walks into Keswick, Lingholm (can recommend their breakfasts) plus Derwent Water and CatBells. Staff were friendly and most helpful when we decided to extend our stay.

Thank you so much for this 5-star review! We love that Barf Cottage exceeded your expectations and you found it clean and warm with everything you needed.

New years stay

This was our 3rd stay in this lovely cottage which is deceptively large . Well styled and comfortable. Appreciated roll topped bath , well stocked kitchen and books / games . We prefer being a walk away from the crowds in Keswick but with no local shop it is a good idea to take the essentials along

Beautiful cottage in a perfect location

We had such a lovely stay at Barf Cottage. It was really clean, in a great location with so much to see nearby. Walks directly from your doorstep, and so many great places to eat around too. The local pub is only a couple of doors down and has a great beer garden! The Keswick Cottages team were so helpful in recommending places to visit during our stay. I’d thoroughly recommend the cottage, as well as staying with Keswick Cottages again. Hopefully see you again soon!

Barf cottage - a lovely place to stay

We have been to Barf Cottage 3 times and will come back again. It is a lovely location and handy for walks. the pub, tea rooms and a short walk to Keswick. There also regular bus services. We had an issue with the fire which meant we couldn't use it but staff were very responsive and helpful. The cottage is well equipped - especially the kitchen! The views from the upstairs bedroom are stunning

Lovely cottage in great location

Barf cottage is a lovely clean, comfortable cottage which is very well equipped. We were blessed with the weather and had a wonderful relaxing week here. The pub is about 1 minutes walk away, and there is a lovely cafe in the village, about 5 minutes walk. There are lots of lovely walks around - Keswick is just over a mile along a level footpath and there are lovely walks along the side of the lake, and up to Catbells. There is also a bus stop - we caught the bus to Seatoller and walked back to the cottage. We had a dog with us, and there is a small paved garden for them to use (keep an eye out if you have a small determined dog - our Jack Russell Terrier managed to find a hole through the bushes into the neighbour's garden and out into the lane. Luckily she came straight back). There is a parking spot, but it is a bit of an awkward manoeuvre if you have a large car. A small car would be ok. After the first day we parked on the road opposite the pub with no problems as it was easier. Would definitely stay again.

Hi Sarah, Thank you for your review. Barf Cottage is in a great location in the quiet village of Portinscale. It is a short flat walk in to Keswick town centre but there are regular buses that run through the village that can take you there or further afield. We hope you had a great stay and we hope that we can welcome you back again in the future. Best wishes, Keswick Cottages.

Disappointing

We were looking forward to staying at Barf cottage having read the good reviews. Sadly it didn't live up to expectations. It hadn't been cleaned very well on our arrival and there were areas that hadn't been cleaned for a long time. Having said that, when reported to the office the customer service team were very good. I really wanted to like this cottage and there were elements such as the character features that were lovely but all in all we found it disappointing for what we paid.

Lovely cottage let down by cleanliness

We booked this very last minute and got it for a great price. The location is perfect for some lovely walks and only a 10 min walk to Keswick. The cottage comes with parking for 2 cars which is handy but the access lane is very tight so be careful. The layout of the cottage is great and it's lovely and warm. Kitchen fully equipped and a very useful boot/coat room. The second floor bedroom is lovely! The only thing that let this cottage down was the cleanliness. The second we opened the door and stepped in we could see none of the floors had been hoovered or cleaned from the previous occupants. There was literally dirt and crusted food on the kitchen floor and the carpets were littered in bits. I hoovered the whole house before we could unpack because I refused to take our stuff in. I rang Keswick cottages who were very good and sent someone round to mop the kitchen and bathroom floors but if a cleaner 'forgets' to hoover and disinfect the floors what else have they not done? The whole house needs a deep clean as there was also dust in places it really shouldn't be. I hope that Keswick Cottages address the cleaning issues because this is really a lovely cottage.
Respuesta de VrboOwner el 18 de feb de 2025
Thank you very much for your review. It's wonderful to hear that you enjoyed your holiday at this characterful Lakeland retreat. It is lovely to return to the cosy open fire during the Winter months after a day of walking and exploring the fells! We were very sorry that you found some debris on the floor when you arrived. As soon as you reported your concerns we sent two members of our team round to the cottage to get this rectified as quickly as possible. As explained on your arrival, the cottage had been thoroughly cleaned and checked off at our usual high standard, however during the check we had found a couple of maintenance issues that required attention. We had booked this in with the maintenance team straight away in an effort to avoid any inconvenience during your stay, however unfortunately they had not realised that some debris had been left behind on the floors. Please be assured your feedback regarding dust has been passed on to the Housekeeping Manager, who has scheduled the next deep clean. We're pleased this did not spoil your stay and hope to welcome you back for another visit in the near future.

Nice cottage however it needs some attention

We stayed for a week in June 2022. The location is wonderful and the cottage homely, well equipped, spacious and very comfortable however it is let down by a few minor details. The front door lock jammed so we could not open it. The key to the bike/kayak storage did not fit the padlock but was pointless because the doors could be opened anyway (not secure). The bathroom shower mixer has control problems. The toilet basin was not secured to the floor and I had to fix a waste pipe leak. The oven clock had been switched off which stopped us from using it and it took is some time to work out how to set this up. The grill was not 100% clean. Parking is really not ideal if you have a large car, although could be helped if the shrubs are pruned. You don’t find out about the small space until you have paid and are sent directions. The second space opposite the pub was rarely available. Keswick Cottages were very quick to resolve any issues and we are regular visitors to the area however would not return to this cottage.
