However, Sykes were very responsive the next morning and dealt with the issue very efficiently, providing a fresh fitted sheet without delay. No other adverse issues cropped up during our stay. The accommodation was very well appointed , warm, comfortable and we greatly appreciated the bath after a days walking in the rain. Bed was extremely comfortable. TV would probably benefit from being updated to a Smart TV or advise in the property details so that customers know to bring a smart TV device if wanted (to watch on demand / Netflix etc).

Thank you for your feedback and I am glad that everything was resolved swiftly for you. I can confirm that we have replenished all of the linens throughout. We look forward to welcoming you back to stay at The Beeches when you are next visiting the Lakes. Property Owner

“We had a week in the Beeches, the quality of furnishings and equipment was excellent.”

A quiet rural location, a short drive into Keswick.

“We really liked the design of the studio apartment and it was really well-equipped.”

The location was perfect because we could walk into town and also walk up the surrounding mountains from the house. The views were also unexpectedly beautiful.

“The freedom we enjoyed by having an apartment instead of a hotel was great.”

The location of the apartment was amazing. If the weather had been better (nothing you can do about this) then we would have loved to have sat outside and admired the view with a gin and tonic in hand. Would not hesitate to go back to this apartment whatever the season. Many thanks for a wonderful break - we feel very thankful to have managed this holiday before another Lockdown!!

“We arrived a few minutes before 3pm sat in the car to check in on time but as we were about to go into the property the cleaners turned up they had it as a 4pm check in.”

They were only in the property about 25 minutes which to my mind in the current climate hardly seems adequate . The lower part of the driveway is in appalling condition it’s like a farm track very rutted and rough. The chopping board could do with replacing and a bath mat in the bath would be a good addition to prevent slipping when showering.

“Great location and property.”

We stayed for a week and the apartment had everything we needed and more which was a bonus. Lovely property, would definitely recommend it.

“The listing might include more information about access, I imagine the muddy single track could be an issue when it is busy.”

There are no passing places on it so meeting oncoming traffic is difficult. Distance to Keswick is more like 1.5 miles. Other than that, great.

“We found the property very cold on arrival as the boiler had gone off.”

We sorted the problem but the boiler then went off twice more during the week. Property warm when boiler is on. it seems that the shower does not have an individual thermostat to protect against water being turned on elsewhere in Fieldside Grange. Be prepared for temp fluctuations! Linen was clean, but it seemed that the bottom sheet, mattress cover and one bath sheet had not been fully dried before being stored, resulting in unpleasant ‘fewsty’ smell. Positives: a tasteful apartment. Only a short drive to Keswick and therefore very good location. This apartment is the only one with parking right at the door, so is convenient for anyone with mobility issues.

“The Beeches was well equipped but some more crockery and cutlery would have helped us to be able to use the dishwasher more frequently.”

The lovely big clock on the wall did not work, think it needed a new battery.The outside light did not work. We were warm and comfortable on our third visit to the Beeches. Thank you. A special thank you to Emma from your office who took the trouble to come up to the Beeches after work to help us to be able to use the wifi.

The property

A one bedroomed, ground-floor, contemporary apartment sleeping two with stunning views from the shared gardens and private patio, overlooking the town to the fells beyond.

In all the perfect retreat for a very memorable Lake District holiday cottage.

Fieldside Grange is located on the outskirts of Keswick on the Castlerigg Stone Circle road accessed by its own private drive way lined with mature trees, shrubs and rhododendrons.

Built circa 1850, Fieldside Grange was once a farmhouse and has been sympathetically renovated and refurbished in recent years to provide four 1 bedroom and six 2 bedroom apartments whilst retaining its original slate and stone building.

Set in its own grounds of 1 and a half acres which offer magnificent views towards Keswick and Derwentwater, there is ample space to enjoy a picnic or for the kids to run around whilst still in sight of the building.
