Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
If you have submitted a review for a holiday rental property, we may also ask that you provide us with proof of your stay to ensure that your review is attached to the correct rental property.
Holiday rental reviews collected via the VRBO website (formerly Homeaway) and syndicated to the Tripadvisor website are not currently subject to Tripadvisor’s standard moderation processes.

Warm, stylish accommodation in a great part of town.
Brilliantly located, tastefully decorated and surprisingly cosy for such a big house. This is the third of the Townhouses I've stayed in over the years and I'll definitely return.

Beautiful house
High quality furnishings, beds and sofas comfortable. Excellent location right in the centre of Keswick. Excellent and quick care by Keswick cottages when items needed to be replaced/repaired. Slight downsides are; The narrow kitchen, especially difficult around the door area. We made the suggestion to remove the door but understand that this might not suit everyone. Very narrow en-suite in first floor room makes the toilet a bit awkward to use but still better to have the facility than not and therefore not really a criticism. House situated on a busy road but the sitting room is completely private and quiet.

Dear Voyager, thanks so much for your lovely review. The 5* hotel-standard bed mattresses are made in the NE of England by a company that has 60% of its workforce with some form of disability, so we are particularly proud to support them. Glad that you found them comfortable, and so pleased you enjoyed the house. Looking forward to seeing you again.

Perfect for location, modern with good decor.
The property is in a great location, only a very shot walk from one of the main streets with both shops and restaurants. The house itself is spacious and suits the need of a large party. The property is pet friendly, but at a cost. We paid £15 for our dog for 3 nights. Upon arrival, the welcome book stated that the property was last cleaned 3 weeks before hand. The oven, dishwasher, remotes, plates, glassware and surfaces were dirty. The oven and dishwasher need a good clean asap. Once the oven got hot, it produced a disgusting smell which I could only assume was because of its cleanliness, which lingered until the next day even though we opened all doors and windows. Above the bathroom in the first floor en suite is a ledge which was caked in dust. I hope the cleaner can rectify these. The WiFi was also temperamental. The overall finish and the decor of the property is good. Each room had a different color scheme, ours being green. You are given one parking permit with the property which can be used in the car park just down the road, which was ideal. Overall the property was a nice place and I would stay here again.

Dear H D, we are delighted that you enjoyed No 9 Townhouses and look forward to welcoming you back. The green room is certainly a favourite in that property, especially with its en suite shower room. We note with concern your comments about the kitchen and we are really sorry that you found the cleanliness below standard. We make cleanliness one of our priorities at the Townhouses, and so we are naturally concerned by the experience you received. Although we think it may have been a one-off error on our part, for which we apologise, please be assured that we are investigating it with our cleaning team to ensure that all guests receive the same high quality experience. We thank you for taking the time to leave your comments with us. Best wishes from all of us in Keswick

Brilliant stay
Loved this cottage. 8 of us went ( 4 couples) very spacious and everything there that we needed. Only a 2 minute walk into the centre of Keswick also which was very handy.

Met our requirements perfectly
This is our first booking via Keswick Cottages and hopefully won't be our last .we were a party of 6 adults one little 4 year old and two infants . We found that the accommodation met our needs perfectly.The two ensuites and family bathroom meant no queuing and waiting for each other to get ready. We were extremely lucky with the weather having 5 glorious days out of the seven so not inside very much at all. Having said that the nice large dining room enabled us to have family meals together and the lounge provided enough seating for all of us.The kitchen has more then enough supplies of plates, glasses cups to allow a full load in the dishwasher and still have plenty to use.The location is ideal a short walk to town and on the door step of Fitz park and the leisure centre. We received a quick and curteous response from the agent over a minor query regarding the infant cot we hired .Had no problems at all , we all enjoyed our family time together and our stay at 9 The Townhouses and hope to book again.

Not as described
Booked the property through Keswick luxury cottages. Very comfortable not luxurious by any stretch of the imagination,oven and grill wouldn't work,wood burner just fills house with smoke,10 guests no glasses in the property even though explained was for birthday party weekend,furniture tired and dated,sofa all ripped around the bottoms. Pillows in bedrooms all flat and worn and on further inspection not clean !!! Could I recommend pillow protectors? If you are going to charge the money you charge you should re invest in the property,just a thought. They ask in the brochure for you to leave the property in the same condition as when you arrive,I am so sorry I couldn't do that !!!! So we have cleaned it to the best standard we could with the very little resources you provided,one dish cloth,one tea towel,no toilet cleaner,no bleach,sorry if I offend you with my review but to be honest very dissatisfied with 9 the town houses.

Mr Lawton, I can only apologise that you feel that you were dissatisfied with your stay with us. It seems to come across that you were expecting 5 star luxury accommodations and of course 9 The Town house does not fit into that bracket it is a 4 star Visit Britain property. The rate you paid of £25 per person per night is reflective of this and I believe a fantastic rate for the level of accommodation booked. We do have many 5 Star and Gold awarded properties that I feel would satisfy your requirements but of course would be more expensive. The property was very recently fully refurbished to a high standard, and as you can see from previous comments people have been very impressed with the house. As you became aware our customer service is second to none. After reporting that you did not have enough glasses in the property for all 8 guests you were visited by a member of our team within half an hour who brought you the additional glasses as requested. We do have large parties who book more than one of the Townhouses at a time so often the glasses, kitchen ware etc. do get moved from house to house and while we do try to keep an eye on this and check the inventory in between guests during the busier changeover days it is not always possible but as you know we are on hand within minutes if anything is not perfect. While there we also asked if there was anything else that you needed and were told that everything else in the property was great. So to complain on TripAdvisor that you did not know how to use the oven, grill and fire when you were very aware how quickly problems are dealt with I find bizarre! A simple phone call and we would have come to show you how to use these (the instructions are in the property). The pillows could have also been replaced for you and of course have now been. Thank you for taking the time to clean the property on departure, however, in the brochure we just ask that you leave the property in the same state of general order as you found it to allow us to fully prepare the house for the next guests. At no point are you asked to clean the property, we don’t leave bleach or toilet cleaner for health and safety reasons. We are a small local agency and our customers are always of upmost priority in everything that we do, we always try to ensure a positive experience from booking to departure. Indeed we have close to 100 reviews and only 2 (including yours) have fewer than 4 circles! So yes it is upsetting and damaging to brashly slate a property without good reason or thought. I hope this will change your thinking towards us and the Townhouses and we hope we can welcome you back for another stay in Keswick safe in the knowledge that if you have any difficulties, questions or requests that we are always on hand to offer assistance.

Spacious and great location!
We had a lovely stay in the townhouse. It was very clean and really spacious. We were able to enjoy a couple of dinner parties in the dining room! It's a great central location to explore Kewsick and the Lakes. The views from some of the bedrooms on the upper floors are impressive. We would love to return!
