Guests say
Brundholme Glen is praised for its excellent location just a short walk from Keswick and Fitz Park, making it ideal for dog owners and walkers. Guests appreciate the secure parking, enclosed garden, and well-equipped kitchen. The cottage is generally clean and comfortable, though some furnishings and decor are dated and maintenance issues have been noted. While the property offers good value and a pleasant base for exploring the area, a few guests mention that it would benefit from some updating and extra attention to detail.
Most guests found the cottage clean and tidy on arrival, with several positive mentions. However, a few reviews noted missed cleaning in drawers, dusty blinds, and a dirty cooker, indicating some inconsistency.
The location is consistently highlighted as a major strength, with easy access to Keswick town centre, parks, and walking routes. Parking is also considered a bonus.
Guests generally found the cottage comfortable, especially for dog owners, but several mentioned very firm or uncomfortable beds and dated furniture. Noise from the river and road affected light sleepers.
The cottage is well equipped with kitchen essentials, TVs, and heating, but guests reported maintenance issues such as leaking taps, broken fridge drawers, and outdated appliances. Some facilities, like the TV and Hoover, were considered in need of upgrading.
There were no welcome packs or extra touches mentioned, and guests noted a lack of basics such as soap, shower gel, and sufficient bin bags. If gifts or extras are provided, please note they are not guaranteed.

Second time we've stayed at cottage. Although it could do with some updating, and the seal at the bottom of the glass shower screen doesn't appear to have been replaced despite our reporting it last year, the accommodation was well stocked and comfortable.

Lovely location - and a nice house but some of the basics were lacking - one small bin bag, one toilet roll, a kitchen bin that wouldn’t close, a dirty cooker etc.
