In the centre of Keswick.
We were looking for a level-access place in Keswick and this amply met our requirements. It is exceptionally well equipped, fairly newly furnished and very comfortable. All it lacks, being in a yard, is a view of the mountains - but you don't have to go far for one, and it's as central as you could possibly hope for. The access is very tight, and turning the car round was exciting (I recommend an assistant!). The only complaint: we could only book 3 nights at short notice in the Easter holidays.

A little break in Keswick
Having Multiple Sclerosis and being a wheelchair user I was worried about going away. My family and I look upon the Lakes as our second home, spending years visiting and walking the fells until my diagnosis. Sam's Cottage showed me disability doesn't have to hold you back. The Cottage was lovely. The welcome packs, such a lovely touch. Every bit of space was used to its fullest potential. Will definitely be back. Must mention the drive way. Luckily my husband is a great driver. Please check your vehicle will fit.

Good wheelchair accessible cottage
Sam’s Cottage is a lovely cottage right in the middle of Keswick 2 minutes walk from the nearest shops, restaurants and pubs and 5 minutes walk to the parks and Lake. The floors are all hard floors so easy to move around when using a wheelchair. Lovely big bathroom is to move around in a shower chair and the open plan living room kitchen is excellent. We paid extra for a breakfast hamper and another hamper, the food in them was of the highest quality and well worth the extra spend. We also had our little dog with us which only cost a one off payment of £20 which is a lot cheaper than many places. I would highly recommend this cottage to wheelchair users. Small downside is the passage way you have to drive down, it is so narrow. I have a BMW 5 series tourer and had to reverse down with my wing mirrors folded in (after scratching the car trying to go in forwards. Also cars will park for short periods on the opposite side of the road to the passage way stopping you getting in or out in your car (you just have to wait).

A lovely spacious cottage near the middle of Keswick.
I was impressed with the welcome of the Keswick Cottages staff and the efforts they made to make our stay good. I was very grateful for the support and help they provided. The bed was a large King size providing a luxurious night's sleep. The cottage was well kitted out and a large wetroom welcomed us after a long day out. The cottage was beautifully clean and the welcome packs were much appreciated.

Super stay
Sam's Cottage is compact and cosy. I did have a problem with a squeaky bed frame but the team at Keswick Cottages were quick to resolve this as much as they could. A great central location. Well equipped kitchen. We did struggle to park our big car as the alley is rather narrow!

Excellent location
Sams cottage sits in an excellent location in the centre of Keswick. Not directly off the street, but through a narrow archway. Convenience store across the road any many restaurants and bars only feet away. The lake is approx 15min walk away. Cottage is well equipped and comfortable, however would benefit from a king sized bed. If you bring a dog the only close green space is St John's Church which is 5 mins up the road.

Beautiful cottage. Troublesome parking.
Really lovely cottage, thoughtfully adapted. Just about perfect. BUT parking was not suitable for a large wheelchair adapted vehicle. We couldn’t get ours down the access road. The road was too narrow. We had to park on the main road, unload our equipment and bags, then find somewhere to park. The letting agents were very good. They supplied us with a parking permit for our two week stay. Luckily, family were able to meet us at the end of our holiday and assist with moving all our equipment etc out of the cottage. We loved the cottage but feel it should be made very clear that parking is not suitable for large WAVs.

A few issues
I feel that lighting under kitchen wall cabinets would be a benifit as that area is dar Also blackout blinds would be appreciated in bedroom as awakened at 5.30 am with daylight. Felt that there was a smell from drain in bathroom sink . When I pulled suitcase from under bed it was covered in dust . Unfortunately there was a power cut when we were at cottage and there was no torch to help with visibility and emergency number we contacted returned our call next morning which did not help the situation. Apart from these issues we love Keswick and hope to return next year to Sam’s Cottage as it is a perfect accommodation for my son’s needs.

Clean and functional
Lovely place and great location. Very clean and spacious. Could have done with an alternative to the sofa. Maybe an armchair for those that struggle to get up off a sofa. Driveway is extremely narrow and anything wider than a Polo will struggle.

In the heart of it
A very nice well presented modern cottage right in the heart of Keswick. This is in an excellent position with shops, pubs & restaurants on your doorstep. There is even a well stocked open all hours store just through the arch across the street. As mentioned before the access through the arch into the parking area is fairly tight, however we took our SUV through slowly with room to spare either side turning quite easily once in. This cottage is equipped with good set up for mobility, which helped my 91 year old dad move around and access the rooms and bathroom.

Perfect Keswick location
Sam's cottage is a good, central location with comfortable bed, sofa and excellent showers. Thank you to Keswick cottages staff member for hearing our concerns and supplying some kitchen utensils that were missing when we arrived. Starter pack of washing up liquid, dishwasher tabs and one loo roll only go so far, so be prepared to take extras unless you want to buy more once in Keswick. Our big issue was with the narrow access to the property, as mentioned on previous reviews. Despite being forewarned we scraped our car on arrival ( not the best start to the week!). A measurement of the width of the alley would be helpful as we don't consider our car to be large (Seat Leon). On arrival you need to be prepared to align your car at right angles to the street and approach the alley straight on, trying not to squash any passing pedestrians on St. John's Street (of which there are many on Saturday afternoon).

A lovely property centrally based
A lovely single storey property, very spacious and well adapted for wheelchair users. In a great central location but a very narrow back street to reverse down to park.so once we were parked the car stayed put! All clean and comfortable for most, although I walk with crutches and have bad hip arthritis so the sofa was very low down for me and difficult to get up front. Everything was welcoming and clean. I would definitely recommend it as the location is brilliant with shops, cafes and restaurants on the doorstep and lovely walks minutes away which the rest of the family and the dog loved!

Lovely Stay
Sam's Cottage is a spacious and comfortable apartment. It was spotlessly clean on arrival and has everything you need for self-catering. Perfect location in the centre of Keswick.

Good disabled accommodation
A lovely well fitted bungalow well situated within easy reach of all facilities. But VERY NARROW concealed entrance ( with no warning ). Fittings good but in wheelchair I found the wash basin to small & low with no adjoining shelf for tooth brush etc. A map would help find property in very busy streets. Generally very good.
