Feb 12, 2024 #### Fairbank review Great little cottage, good location, perfect for dog owners, it’s a two bed cottage but a bit small for 4 adults, better for a small family, lovely and cosy well equipped everything you need, looks out over Fitz park with access from the front of the cottage, no parking but a permit is issued for Otley Rd car park which is only round the corner you can also use it in the long stay and lakeside car parks, very handy when busy. A perfect little cottage. ##### Kevin T. This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 8/10 Good #### Tony R. Jul 10, 2023 #### Lovely little cottage 2nd visit here.

The cottage was in the perfect location for enjoying everything Keswick has to offer. We enjoyed being next to Fitz Park for early morning dog walks and the view from the main bedroom was stunning. Bedrooms were really nice with very comfortable beds and the kitchen was well equipped. Would have preferred a more comfortable sofa as it was quite small. Had a few problems getting parked in the long stay car parks as Keswick was very busy when we stayed. That said we would happily stay at Fairbank again. We had great service from Keswick Cottages and will definitely be looking to book with them again next year.

The Fairbank is a lovely cottage, decorated very tastefully inside. You walk through the front door straight into the kitchen area. Which is excellent and there is an area to leave muddy boots before entering the rest of the cottage. The beds are very comfy for a good nights sleep, and a recliner chair was excellent for relaxing in after a long day on the fells. The cottage looks out on a park area which is ideal for walking our dog morning and evening, and the Skiddaw range. Also the position is excellent for accessing the centre of Keswick and the Amenities. This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### John S. Jun 17, 2024 #### Fairbank Cottage We chose the property principally because of the location. Close to central Keswick and with easy access to Fitz Park which is a popular dog friendly park. The cottage itself exceeded our expectations. Clean, comfortable and well equipped. Cannot identify any equipment that was not there. We are planning to visit again in 2025. ##### John S.

Nicely situated right on top of Fitzroy park and a 5 minute stroll into Keswick town centre. Kitchen is well stocked for anyone wanting to cook. We didn’t experience any problems with the WiFi. No parking with this property, however a permit is issued for the long stay car parks . Would definitely recommend to friends. ##### Tony R. This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent Mar 5, 2024 #### fantastic This was our third stay at Fairbank. Yet again it didn't disappoint. The cottage is very welcoming, warm and provides a well stocked kitchen if you choose to cook. With the added bonus of the dishwasher. I cannot think of any negatives and would definitely recommend Fairbank to anyone who wishes to visit the Lake District. Ideal location for walking, car used once during our stay, as the bus didn't go to Buttermere. A parking permit is provided with the car being parked about a minute away for the cottage. Also thank you to Keswick Cottages as booking through them is so easy and communication prior to arrival excellent. Hopefully we will be back at Fairbank for a fourth time fairly soon This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent Oct 25, 2022 #### Fair Bank - Oct 22 Superb property ideally located in Keswick. Updates before, during and after our visit were precise and the tablet in the cottage very informative without having to leaf through a huge folder. I also found the walking books in the living room helpful. All mod cons in the property, which was well presented, cosy and with an excellent bathroom. The back garden was also useful. One very minor suggestion - perhaps get some more glasses for those of us who link a pint as there was nothing more than small beaker and perhaps larger wine glasses. Offers terrific value for money and despite the weather not behaving we enjoyed our time in Keswick and will no doubt be back.
