    “This is one of the best properties we have stayed in , in Keswick.”

    We recently holidayed for 1 week and could not have wished for a better house for location, cleanliness, the facilities and the little extras , including for our fur babies. Towels and toilet rolls were plentiful which was great as normally you would get the bare minimum. Would highly recommend a stay in Dovedale. We also met the owner Les who was a lovely man & nothing seemed to much trouble. Great stay had by all
