The property is considered ideal for couples and their pets, though some find it slightly cramped for larger families. Regular visitors commend it as a home away from home.
The cottage is mostly described as clean, with specific mentions of recent decoration and spotlessness. However, some reviews suggest the need for a deep clean, particularly of the carpets and shower curtain, which slightly lowers the score.

An fabulously located cottage, 50 yards to the car park and 50 yards to the hub of Keswick square. Recently decorated and spotlessly clean. Was great for a couple and a dog, possibly a bit cramped for a family of four. Highly recommended. James and Kim.
