“This Keswick guesthouse has carved out a real niche, particularly with its breakfast, which is consistently praised for quality and thoughtful choices, including excellent gluten-free options and Chris's homemade bread. The rooms, while comfortable and well-appointed, seem to be complemented by the welcoming approach of the hosts, Amy and Chris, who also offer helpful local insights. Its quiet street location, yet mere minutes from the town's amenities, strikes a very sensible balance.”
