We had a relaxing stay at Burnside and would recommend here for a place to stay in Keswick. Great access to the lakes, and Sharon is a fantastic person, and had plenty of local information to share - we could have spoken to her all day. Hopefully we will stay here again in the future!

Highly recommended! Sharon is a lovely lady with a warm and friendly personality. The B&B is decorated to a high standard with lots of William Morris touches in keeping with the style and age of the property. Sharon clearly has very high standards of cleanliness as there wasn't a speck of dust or dirt anywhere, and bedding and towels smelled and felt clean. Breakfast was gorgeous with homemade jams and a wide selection including pancakes and waffles if you're not a full English person. Sharon has obviously thought about every aspect of the customer experience from the moment they come in the door. Could not recommend this place enough; it is a hidden gem!

We were met on arrival and every morning with morning with a cheerful welcome. The high quality breakfast was cooked to order with a good selection being offered. The room was spotlessly clean and comfortable which laid the base for a wonderful stay in Keswick. I would definitely use this B&B again.

Great little find

We stayed for 2 nights. The room was very nice, clean and well decorated. A bit of traffic noise as we faced the road but I had ear buds which solved this issue. The breakfast was substantial and very, very good. The hostess was friendly and helpful and made us very welcome. We will return.

Sharon is a wonderfully accommodating host, very friendly and professional, and eager to share useful local knowledge. The room was spacious, warm, quiet and comfortable. The breakfast options are variable and delicious. There is on street parking opposite for people with cars, we had no problem parking and the car was visible from our room. We would definitely stay at the Burnside again and can highly recommend it.

Very Enjoyable stay

We stayed at Burnside for three nights. We had a lovely breakfast each morning, with wonderful homemade vegetarian sausage,marmalade and jam. The host Sharon was very helpful with lots of local knowledge. Our room was clean and spacious with a very comfy bed. Enjoyed having a sofa in the room to sit on. Walkable distance from B&B to Keswick via old Threlkeld railway line.

Sharon was really warm & welcoming, informative & helpful. We stayed in the cosy double room which was well decorated & contained everything needed but was compact. We would've prefered a bigger room with kingsize bed but it was the only room left when booking but this did not spoil our stay in any way. Then breakfast was plentiful with good quality ingredients & Sharon's homemade jam & marmalade were delicious. Off street free parking was available across the road & slightly up the hill. There is a lovely walk along the cycle path in to town also.
