Thank you very much for your kind comments. The modern facilities, peaceful location and beautiful views do make a fantastic choice for anyone seeking some R&R on their break. I'm so sorry to hear that you did not come across the cutlery during your holiday. The cutlery is inside the drawer next to the oven (under the counter). This is of course an essential for a self-catering holiday, we do regular inventory checks to ensure our guests find the kitchen to be well equipped. Please be assured we are a small local agency and know our properties inside out, so never hesitate to contact us. We hope to welcome you again very soon! Best Wishes, Keswick Cottages

Hi Cheryl, Thank you for your review. Lake View Cottage in Thornthwaite is a great location for a holiday in the Lakes. It is located near some great walks such as Barf and Wythop and Keswick is only a 10 minute car or bus journey away. I'm glad we could get the issues sorted quicky for you and we hope you had a fantastic stay despite the weather! Best wishes, Keswick Cottages

Thank you for taking the time to review your stay, we hope that you had a wonderful time exploring Keswick and beyond. The location does make an excellent base, and the views towards Bassenthwaite Lake are difficult to beat! It was myself monitoring our out of hours number during your stay, unfortunately the only voicemail message we had was one letting us know that the heating and hot water was back on, but nothing prior on our out of hours service to let us know that the boiler was not working. We did then try to contact you the following day to ensure that the boiler was still working as it should, and you had not experienced any further problems. Please know we are a small local team and will do everything we can to minimise any inconvenience to our guests. If a problem is reported on our out of hours line we ask that guests leave a voicemail message so we can assess the problem and organise the appropriate resolve, then you will receive a call back within a few minutes to confirm we have received your report and let you know what action has been taken. We are very sorry that you had an issue with the boiler during your holiday. We of course hope to welcome you for another visit very soon. Best Wishes, Keswick Cottages

We are so happy you found it a gorgeous, perfect, spacious and snug cottage and that it had a true welcome home feeling.
