Riverside Cottage No 5 Reviews

Lovely quiet location. Loved the railway track walk in to Keswick. Clean and well kept area. It should be clear in the description that the holiday park is outside Keswick stating it is accessible by walking 30 minutes or driving 10 minutes.We were disappointed not to be closer to our friends this holiday.

Our rental property was undergoing renovation upon our arrival. We were upgraded to a luxury lodge instead. The lodge was exceptional in every aspect. Staff were very friendly and helpful.We had not visited Low Briery for a few years but we will be back.
Ensuite shower nonexistent, very poor water pressure meaning all 4 guests had to use one rather than being able to use both as advertised. Headboard in bedroom adjoining the ensuite very loose and away from the wall which caused disturbances through the night for all Thick of dust on top of picture frame in nonensuite bathroom, clearly hadn't been wiped for months as there was much that much dust. Cupboard door in kitchen off its hinges, hanging off which was a hazard should the door have come off. Lack of teatowels and pan scrubbers clearly a money making exercise as other towels could be rented for additional costing!? Property was excessively hot but we had no control over the heating at all and this caused a lot of discomfort for a person who has fibromyalgia sensitive to temperatures No welcome pack like you see in all other lets this was quite hostile and upsetting as you would expect to see nice little biscuits, teacoffee to welcome you....but nothing Lack of accessibility which caused huge upset for my parents no hand rails down the very slippy and poorly positioned slate steps to the entrance of the property. No guard rails for the shower facilities, which my mother needs but we didn't know there was a lack of such things at time of booking. It upset my mother's dignity and she felt embarrassed that she needed so much help around the property as a result of Lack of thought around this property. We even had to request a bath mat to make the showerbath safer but due to lack of walk in shower ensuite water pressure my mother felt this really impacted her hygiene as unable to use a shower over bath facility. The staff on site however were helpful and did offer to change us to a different let however this would have been more upheaval for frail parents with mobility issues. We will not be going back to Low Briery holiday park, for the money we expected much more for 625 for low season. A very disappointing stay but more upsetting is lack of accessibility and the fact there is no mention of this in the cottage details customers should be made aware of this prior to booking so they can seek a let with accessibility in mind. It should be detailed within the writeupspecification Please be mindful when booking and to request further information regarding accessibility should this be something you require.

Great little house, great for 2 people and a dog, probably would be a bit of a squeeze with 4 people. Clean and tidy, I took washing up liquid and dishcloths etc, but this was all provided
Jennie
The cottage in Low Briery Holiday Park was perfect in every way clean, comfortable, crisp white linen, the beautiful River Greta right outside, and some great walks right on the doorstep. We won't hesitate in coming back here.

Lake District Wildlife Park - CA12 4RD
about 7 Miles
We love this day out in Cumbria where you're encouraged to "take a fresh look".  Some of the amazing animals you will get to see include the only Canadian Lynx in the UK and you will have the opportunity to help their Lynx Conservation Project.  The Asian Fishing Cat is also well worth a look - these cats are known for diving under the water and catching fish!  Other activities include fantastic flying displays and play areas for the little ones...
Ullswater Steamers - CA11 0US
about 7 Miles
This is an award winning Lake District attraction and they have been operating cruisers on Lake Ullswater for over 150 years.  There is no better way to explore the lakes than on water and you could even combine a cruise with a spectacular walk.  For great days out in this region then this attraction is highly recommended and will appeal to couples as well as families.  Corporate groups are also well catered for.
Rydal Mount & Gardens - LA22 9LU
about 12 Miles
Rydal Mount & Gardens are wonderfully situated between Lake Windermere and Rydal Water offering breathtaking scenery. The home of William Wordsworth from 1813 - 1850 the grand home is now lived in by the poets descendents but parts of the house and grounds are open to the public. Why not take a guided tour and see the rooms where many of the famous poems were written. The gardens are beautiful at all times of the year but in the summer offer a spectacular display of colour. There is also a gallery and a tearoom. Discounts are available for group bookings.
Tullie House Museum & Art Gallery - CA3 8TP
about 20 Miles
This is a museum and art gallery in one and will suit those looking for an educational and cultural day out.  You can explore the fantastic art collection including Fine Art, Decorative Art and Textiles.  If you love nature then this aspect of Tullie House will appeal. The museum holds large and important collections of zoological, botanical and geological material. And for lovers of history there is plenty to wet your appetite here. Tullie House collects a wide range of historic materials including objects, ephemera (printed material), photographs and associated information files.  We think this museum and art gallery are excellent value for money as well.
