Fell House Reviews

Michael
Excellent location and great for large groups and a bonus for all rooms to be en-suite with TVs. Another positive is the private parking. We were a group of 12 with dogs and there was plenty of room, the two living rooms gave us space to spread out in the evenings after returning from the town.
Jill
The location of this property is excellent. The parking for four cars is great. We loved the views of the mountains. We all enjoyed the table football and the two lounges, space to relax. We did feel that it was overall a bit tired and that the kitchen really needs a deep clean. Upon arrival there was a very strong smell of bleach that was not very welcoming!
Flora
Great location and perfect for family gatherings.
Tricia
Lovely house in a perfect location. A bathroom for each bedroom which was great for our party of 11 however the kitchen was quite small although this didnâ??t bother us as we ate out as there were lots of nice restaurants within walking distance.
Alan
Fell House is in an ideal location for Keswick with easy access to the town centre and shops; it also gives almost traffic-free and rapid access to the park with its very good facilities which is ideal for allowing children to go independently. The dedicated parking for 4 cars is a real bonus in Keswick. Bedroom accommodation is very good and flexible for a large group, two lounges give valuable options and the kitchen / dining room, while a little cramped for a large group, is well equipped. The views of the surrounding fells are great, with the outlook to Cat Bells seen from the kitchen early in the morning quite outstanding. We had a great week and hope to be back next year.
Timothy
Generally excellent plenty of room quite well equipped location absolutely perfect
Neil

Steven
5 Couples stayed here and we had a brilliant time, the property was brilliant and no complaints at all.
Mary
Great property for our family weekend. Good facilities, clean & comfy. Amble parking at the back. Really close to the centre of Keswick. Really enjoyed our stay.
Sarah
A lovely spacious house for a family gathering. An excellent location with the advantage of parking. Very homely, quiet and with lovely views.
George
Ideal venue for what we needed. we were a family of 10 and needed 6 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms. The house is a few minutes walk from the centre of town and the parking for 4 cars is spot on. The kitchen particularly is very well equipped with quality appliances. we would certainly recommend for groups of our size.
Andy
Great location and good for large groups
