We would not come again at this time of year due to the Mountaineering festival and Borrowdale run as everywhere so busy and parking a nightmare!! but would recommend... More

Amanda works hard to run this place and it pays, everything was... More

This B&B is well worth a stop, the family that run the B&B are incredibly organised, friendly, welcoming and helpful. (The little guard dog is beautiful!) I am Coeliac and the owner looked after me well and was clearly aware of dietary requirements. We had to be up at 3:50am for the annual Keswick to Barrow charity walk (40 miles)... More

Fresh milk was put in the room in a flask in the evening & was left a home made sponge cake each - very nice touches. Breakfast was good with home... More

My girlfriend and I stayed for three nights in March 2012, our first time in the lakes. We could not fault the Dolly Waggon at all. Very tasty breakfasts (including perfectly-poached eggs), comfortable beds, and an excellent location on a quiet street -- that is still very convenient or wandering into central Keswick. Our hosts were very friendly and helpful,... More

Our stay at Dolly Waggon was extremely relaxing and enjoyable. It was a perfect place to begin exploring the northern Lakes, and right in the centre of Keswick for something to do in the evenings as well. Cannot begin to explain the size and brilliance of the breakfasts...the perfect beginning for a day on the fells. Definitely recommended, and we'd... More
