My patner and I spent the May Day Bank Holiday weekend in beautiful Cumbria, and stayed at the Oakthwaite House B&B again, (we stayed there in September of last year). We continue to be impressed with this small but friendly B&B that delivers 'big'. Yet again, we received a warm welcome and were shown to our lovely, comfortable room, this... More

We've just returned from our 3rd visit to Oakthwaite House and once again we had a wonderful relaxing stay. We have stayed in both of the double rooms, which are immaculate, modern and comfortable with nice extras such as bottled water, chocolates and toiletries. Breakfasts are fabulous, with a huge choice and they are always beautifully cooked and presented. David... More

We visit Keswick quite often after taking up Fell Walking and this is always the first B&B I try to book. The rooms, service and welcome you are given are second to none and it really feels a treat to stay there. If you are looking for that perfect relaxing break in the Lakes, a great location a few minutes... More

Oakthwaite House is by far and away the best B&B my wife and I have ever stayed in. We stayed in room 4, which boasted a charming dormer window and had lovely views of Skiddaw and surrounding mountains. The room itself was really nicely decorated and spotless in all areas, the quality of the ensuite shower was a particular bonus.... More

David and Karen are excellent hosts and always able to offer advice about walks, pubs/restaurants and local activities. Even more lovely choices on the breakfast menu for our latest visit -... More

I can only echo the reviews already on tripadvisor. David and Karen are wonderful hosts and really made my wife and me feel welcome. This was our first stay at Oakthwaite House, and our room was the double, which had a nice view to the hills. The bathroom looked very new and was spotlessly clean, as was the rest of... More

If you want to stay in a fantastic B&B then look no further than Oakthwaite House. This was our 4th year and we will be back next year. Both David and Karen are perfect hosts, rooms always immaculately clean and fresh, with excellent quality bed linen, towels and tea & coffee facilities. The little chocolates on your pillow are just... More
