Oak View, 9 Greta Side Court, Keswick, Cumbria, CA12 5LF

We had a fantastic time at Oak View last week, and we would like to thank the owners for providing absolutely everything we could possibly need for a week?s holiday in the middle of Keswick.

The location of the second-floor apartment is perfect, with views of the Greta and the park from the back, and the town from the front. We enjoyed listening to the river from our open bedroom window, and sitting on the peaceful balcony in the evening, using the thoughtfully provided deckchairs.

The apartment was so handy for all the shops, cafes, pubs ? and the bus station. The designated parking space was much appreciated, as we left our car there all week and used buses to get to all our walking-destinations.

Inside was spotlessly clean, beautifully furnished, and very comfortable. We appreciated the books and maps, the lovely scenes of the Lake District on every wall, and the lovely little touches such as beautiful clocks and ornaments. The Wi-Fi also worked perfectly ? once we had worked out how to connect it.

There was also plenty of wardrobe and drawer space, and spare bedding should it have been needed. We were impressed by the high quality of the bedlinen.

We were amazed at how cleverly everything was contained in such a relatively small space ? especially in the kitchen. The small freezing-compartment in the fridge was perfectly adequate for us, and every utensil one could possibly need was provided.

It was clear to us that the owners have put a great deal of thought into sharing their love of the Lake District with their guests, and into making the apartment a real ?home from home?.

We can?t thank them enough. We have already booked for next summer!
