Cranford House Reviews

Duncan

What a great house and location. Our family of 14 had a great stay here. Only let down were the number of pans available when cooking for a large number of people.

Madison

We could not fault our experience, Sarah was really lovely and attentive. The house was incredible and so close to all the local attractions. Such great value for money. We will definitely be coming again.

Cant recommend enough. We used Cranford House as a base whilst in Keswick for a family wedding. 7 adults, 3 children and 1 dog. The house was very clean and perfectly kitted out with everything we needed even a hot tub for the naughty elf

Fabulous house, comfortable, brilliant location. Lovely space for a family get together

Had a great family weekend in Keswick. The house is lovely, warm cosy and well equipped. All bedrooms are well laid out and with comfortable beds. Kitchen is well equipped with plenty of crockery, cutlery and utensils. The hot tub was great addition and really enjoyed. Short walk into centre of town, with park and lake easy to get to. Parking not a problem with on road and the two spaces.

This is a very nice townhouse over three floors in fairly central Keswick, and accommodated 11 family members this October half term very comfortably.

Charlotte

What a gorgeous property. Beautiful decor, well proportioned rooms. Lovely that all the rooms were so nice and there was no scramble for the best! Great facilities, perfectly clean and really good location. Cant recommend it highly enough.

Catherine

Fantastic comfortable well equipped house. Spotlessly clean. Great facilities. Really enjoyed our stay. Great location. Quiet no noise but only a ten miutes max walk to town centre. Having a hot tub is fabulous. Only very minor thing back garden with hot tub is not at all secure for even a small dog. But this would not prevent me from staying here again.

Lovely house with lots of space for a big group. Excellent location.

Responsive and understanding owner, cleaners and maintenance team. Excellent communicators. Managed expectations well. High quality home, with all necessary facilities. Very well set up. Good views from top floor. Character home with charm. Hot tub lots of fun. Only thing I could think to suggest would be a slightly bigger fridge for a large group!

Danielle

The place was amazing & better than described!

The house is absolutely stunning, there is everything you would need and it is only a short work to the centre of Keswick. The rooms are very spacious and theres plenty to do. I had the best time

Michaela

My family and I stayed for my fathers 60th birthday. The house was beautifully presented, perfect location short walk away from the main high street in Keswick and was very clean and tidy. We did find the mattresses were too soft which disturbed sleep but that is personal preference. There is plenty of room to sit and relax and have your meals and the tv room was great for the kids! Who also loved the hot tub which was clean.

Rachel

We loved our stay at Cranford House, plenty of room for a group of 11 girls bedrooms were spacious and showerbathroom facilities were great. The big fridgefreezer and 2 ovens were really helpful when preparing food for everyone. The house had everything we needed and only a short walk into Keswick for a meal after a big day out walking. The hot tub was brilliant, although access to this is by the side of the house and a public walkway so you have to be quick getting in. We found parking on the street fine. Overall, we would definetly recommend and stay again. Thank you!

Stayed at this property as we were working in the area. The house is outstanding and in an ideal location just a few minutes walk from the main street of Keswick. Spotlessly clean and very well decorated. Loads of space with a big living room, dining room and kitchen to go with the 7 bedrooms. The hot tub was the icing on the cake! I would definitely recommend using this property if you plan to visit the area in a larger group.

Vivien

Cranford house has everything going for it. It's comfortably furnished, well proportioned, ideal for large groups and near the centre of Keswick. The house has been recently renovated to a high standard. Our party comprised of 8 adults, 4 children, a baby and a dog. Everyone fitted in and felt comfortable. We had a couple of small issues which were promptly dealt with by our contact Sarah. We would stay there again.

We were supposed to stay somewhere else but the landlord changed the room configuration which wouldnt have worked for our group. The good news is that we were offered Cranford House! This was exactly what we had been looking for and all of us were extremely happy. We were a family group of two elderly parents, adults, teens and dogs. All of us were well catered for. The house has great character and is large, spotlessly clean, in an excellent position and had everything we could wish for. The kitchen was very well stocked with utensils. Plenty of bedding, hot water and great space for cooking and dining. Downstairs en suite bedroom was ideal for grandparents. A short walk to shops and we were able to park on the road without hassle. Also a short walk to Fitz Park. Thank you to the host and I am sure we will return

Stayed at Cranford House for a 3 day weekend along with our two children, their partners and our five grandchildren aged 12 to 20 eleven people altogether. Cranford House was beautiful, the photographs were very accurate, the beds were comfortable and benefited from ensuite in five of the seven bedrooms, there was also a lovely bathroom with separate shower, there was plenty of seating in the dining room and lounge for everyone and we spent the evenings playing board games and enjoying being able to be together as a family. Keswick town is only a short walk away, a fabulous market on Thursday and Saturday and there was plenty of choice for eating out if required, Keswick is a dog friendly town and they are welcomed in many shops. The hot tub was well used during our stay. The owner had left coffee, tea, sugar, biscuits, washing up liquid, dishwasher tablets, washing tabs, pan scrubs and dish cloth all of which I took because I expected to have to provide my own!. I would love to return to Cranford House.
