We spent 3 wonderful nights at the Babbling Brook and I can’t praise the hosts or the accommodation enough. The guest house is excellently situated just a 5 min walk from the center of Keswick and all of its facilities, the rooms are very clean, the breakfast is perfect and the whole stay was great value for money. Keswick is... More

We spent 3 nights at the Babbling Brook over Easter. Don't be put off by the fact it was once a shop, the rooms have been very nicely renovated. Your host Paul is a font of knowledge with regard to all types of sporting activities. I mentioned that I didn't eat egg whites, but liked scrambled egg yolks, and that... More

My boyfriend and I stayed for three cosy nights and had such a lovely time, we were sad to leave. The warm welcome, flexibility over things like check in times and dietary requirements (we are veggie/vegan) were much appreciated. The location is perfect, as all Keswick has to offer is a stone's throw away, as are those enticing mountains, which... More

Stayed a night with my husband during the Keswick Convention, and everything was ok. Just that, ok. Nothing wonderful, just ok. The coffee at breakfast was instant - which I dislike - and the room wasn't very quiet as it faced the busy road. Otherwise it was very clean and the price competitive for high season. Won't be going back,... More

Lovely greeting from very friendly host, we arrived at 12 and were able to check in early which was excellent. Our host took time to advise us of nice walks in the area and ask if we had anywhere booked for tea (which we did have) as he had recommendations of where we could go. The room was spotlessly clean... More

The host was incredibly welcoming and helpful in every way - from recommending places to eat, to giving directions, to helping plan a fantastic walk for the next day! We turned up quite late and out of the blue on a Saturday evening, yet the welcome could not have been warmer. As for the room - it was a generous... More

My boyfriend and I stayed at the Babbling Brook in January this year. We were looking for a cheap but nice room in Keswick. The Babbling Brook was lovely inside and out and we were greeted by the owner, Paul, who was a very genuine and friendly person. Our room was cosy, clean and the bed was very comfortable! The... More
