Lovely building and location was great… not in the busy centre of Keswick but close enough to be an easy journey to town plus very convenient for hiking Catbells and Derwent water. The owners were extremely friendly, welcoming and very happy to share knowledge of the area.
My single room was very small and the bed wasn’t very comfortable. But it was good value for the price.

This was a great stay! The owners are very welcoming and attentive, and the overall place wonderful for a weekend getaway. The breakfast set us up well for a days hike on the fells.

Brilliant hosts, beautiful room, fabulous breakfast!
The house is outstanding with fantastic views, especially when the sun is shining. Very clean and well maintained, we stayed in the tripple room, which was lovely, roomy and comfortable.
Craig and Clare couldn't do enough and were very insightful about the surrounding area. It's close to Castlerigg Stone Circle and Keswick with the Farmers Arms around a 5 minute walk away
We all had a wonderful 2 night stay and would highly recommend, so much so that we're already organising another visit next year.
Nothing really hus maybe a later checkout

Ideal location just a 20 minute walk from the centre of Keswick and a little further to Derwentwater Lake . Also very close to the Honister Pass, Helvellyn mountain ranges etc . Hosts were friendly and offered to help with things if needed and a good breakfast.

From the second we walked in to this outstanding B&B, we knew we would be back. The whole place is spotless and beautifully decorated. Home-made flapjacks welcomed us along with a wonderful tour and chat with Clare. Our room had everything we needed and was so comfortable. The newly renovated bathroom had a wow factor that is unusual for a B&B. Breakfast was to die for! Claire and Craig are a dynamic duo and between them serve up absolutely anything you could imagine. The views from the beautifully maintained gardens are incredible and Craig and Claire‘s knowledge of the local area means you’re never short of advice on what to do and where to go. This was the most relaxing stay we have ever had in a B&B And we recommend it highly to anyone looking to stay in the Keswick area.

Greg and Claire were wonderful host. Had arrived earlier but Claire made me felt so welcomed.Breakfasts were so yummy! The room was very well insulated. The property is within walking distance to main bus station…but can take the bus too as the bus stop is just outside at front of house. Felt very lucky to have pick this B&B for my stay!

Truly exceptional hosts and home. Claire & Craig were very helpful accommodating vegan breakfast and treats, as well as local insights for trails and activities around the area. Very comfortable room, wonderful service, and lovely location with easy walking access to Keswick and buses.

Very convenient and quiet location. 15 minute walk to Keswick for food and shops. Host Claire showed me round and was very accomodating. It was easy to stay in touch via email and Whatsapp. Check in process very easy.
This is really nit picking, but the toilet seat in my room would not stay up on its own, so gents have to sit down for No.1'. Otherwise everything was very comfortable and clean.

A very warm welcome and a lovely tour of the property with a guide of where to eat. The room was immaculate and very well presented. There was always hot water and the room was a lovely temperature. Even though we hadn’t booked breakfast they were able to facilitate us and it was most certainly worth it. The full breakfast was delicious and the coffee was spot on. They even had some lovely pheasants who roomed in the garden who even had names!! The homemade shortbread was delicious after a day of exploring.

When we arrived we were met and welcomed by Craig, who showed us around, explained how everything worked, and gave us lots of information about the local area, places to walk, places to eat. Very, very, informative. The room was lovely, the view from the room was stunning, breakfast was amazing, the service, the choice, and the taste. (Thanks Clare.) We couldn't fault a thing. We really enjoyed our time at Dalegarth House. We will definitely return.
There was nothing not to like. I can't see what more Craig and Clare could have done to make our stay more enjoyable.

Craig and Chris were really accommodating hosts. My Wife and I booked at short notice and even though normal check in was not until late afternoon, we asked if it was possible to park our vehicle so we could take a walk-up Cat Bells. Not only did they allow us to park up early suggested we knock on the door in case a room was free, and we were in luck hence able to check in early and get on with our day. Chris is charge of the breakfast and it was lovely, choice of hot and cold, cereals, juice (cannot remember if any pastries were out - but fresh cake available free for guests) filled us up for the day. Also, if you want information about buses, restaurants, ferries across the lakes, walking routes Chris and Criag are full of local knowledge. After descending Cat Bells on their advice, we caught the ferry from Hawes End to Keswick only cost £12 for 2adults and saved us another 90mins walking. The location is gorgeous, quiet, spectacular views and lovely front garden. Coffee shop is close by with the Farmer Arms pub just down the road. Oh, and if you ask in advance, they will supply a packed lunch. We liked the location as it’s only a 15 / 20-minute walk into Keswick by foot. Recommend giving them a call as offer discounts direct. We will definitely be back.
This was not our host's fault but our own as when we chose to book we forgot to check that the room had a shower and not a bath but will note that for next time.

We had a lake view room which had an amazing view to the village, lake and surrounding hills(even on the cloudy day). The room was very clean and spacious. Nicely refurbisbed and well equipped. The owners super friendly and welcoming (yummy homemade flapjacks at the entrance as a surprise from the owners). Great parking space and the owners were very kind letting us to leave our car while exploring Keswick surroundings. Location is great, easy access to A road, but you can’t hear any noise in the property. Keswick 20min walking distance that has plenty of places to eat and beautiful lake to walk around or engage in water sports. Scafell Pike is 20min drive.
The room got a bit too chilly at night and early morning. There were some clotches left in the wardrobe by previous customer, not sure why it was not removed while cleaning the room.
