We stayed here for three nights. It was fine - very friendly and helpful approach and clean well equipped room. £198 for three nights twin room B&B seemed good value, with wifi too. The town centre is only a few minutes walk away.

Just back from a last minute, four night break at Squirrel Lodge. A most enjoyable stay. Pat is a very friendly and accopmmodating host, and cooks a superb bowl of porridge. The breakfast was first class (the menu even had Kippers!!) and the room was spotlessly clean and well equipped, with a powerful shower. You even get decent internet access.... More

As is usual for me, I didn't have the foresight to book a B&B for my trip, and had a bit of difficulty finding a place to stay - it seems very few B&Bs in Keswick have single rooms, but luckily this one did. The room was clean, warm and comforatble, with a TV, tea-making facilities and its own bathroom... More

I have stayed at Squirrel Lodge 3 times over the last few months. On my first visit I likled the fact that the room had lots of little personal touches that made it feel like I was staying in someone's home, not their business. The room had a personality and I had everything I needed for my stay. Pat and... More

My friend and I had a busy weekend planned. We planned to do a few hikes including Blencathera and Scafell Pike and had no idea on how to go about them. Pat was extremely helpful when she let us into the room at 10:00 a.m. to drop off our heavy load and pointed us in the right direction with a... More

I stayed at the Squirrel Lodge for 3 nights in a twin bedroom with a friend. It truly defined the vision of a cozy Lake District B&B. Pat was extremely accommodating and the breakfasts were DELICIOUS. We arrived early Friday morning in order to begin a long hike up Blencathra. Pat welcomed us inside so that we could dump some...

Me & my Brother stayed here for one night as a base to sleep after walking Hellvelyn. We were greeted pleasantly by the owner Pat at the b&b and shown to our rooms. The rooms were typical of a standard b&b and were clean & tidy. After freshening up we went out for something to eat and drink... Upon our... More

It saddened me to read this review, as being an accommodation provider I aim to please and want my guests to enjoy their stay with me. The reality of this situation was down to a lock mechanism failure and although I got the blame for it, it was totally out of my hands. The chain of events which followed, led... More

We had one night with Pat at Squirrel Lodge. Pat was very friendly and gave us ideas on what to see and do. Our room was nice, clean and tidy with a comfy bed. Pat served a very nice breakfast in the dinning room where we enjoyed chatting with other guests.

I stayed last night, on my first time in Keswick .firstly pat accommodated our arrangments tremendously and we were ever grateful and due to this fact I did not expect the earth as it was a last minute arrangment. On arrival I found the bnb quirky and quaint. As long as you are not stuck up and expecting a swish... More
