What an amazing quiet and very comfortable B&B that is a few minutes walk from keswick town centre. The owners made me and my friend very welcome. They were first class super hosts. The breakfasts were superb and we were even treated to some yummy cake which was such a nice touch. I will definitely be staying again :)

Forth time at Goodwin House.

I have been visiting Keswick for a good few years and always been very happy with any B&B I used. However, this was my forth consecutive stay at Goodwin House, either as a solo traveller, or more often with my partner, but always thoroughly enjoyed my stay there. I'm looking forward to my next visit with them.

There was nothing not to like! The owner was lovely and obliging. The room was very comfortable, quiet with a lovely view across the town to the mountains. The room was clean and well decorated. The bed was comfortable, and the en suite was bright and clean. Breakfast was perfect.

Fantastic Stay

Liz and Chris were fantastic hosts, we had a wonderful stay and the room and bathroom were absolutely spotless. Lovely quality duvet, and fantastic breakfast of yoghurt and fruit, homemade granola, cereals, tea, coffee, toast and local jams, and a full English breakfast. They also offer vegetarian options and avocado and poached egg on toast. The options were vast and high quality. They go above and beyond for guests, and catered specifically to my partner being gluten free by providing gluten free bread and granola at breakfast. We will certainly be back and will be recommending Goodwin House to family and friends. Thank you!

The thing we most enjoyed at the Goodwin was the breakfast. There were really good breakie options (Vegetarian/vegan) the coffee was great too! Chris and Liz were so warm and welcoming. There was even a slice of cake on arrival. The room was clean, tidy and spacious. Everything was in walking distance and we parked outside on the road for free. I'd definitely recommend and would love to come back again. Thank you both for a wonderful trip. Polly and James x

Cosy rooms with modern bathrooms and set in a perfect location (only a short walk from the centre of Keswick). Felt very welcomed on arrival and throughout. Plenty of options for breakfast and set us up perfect for a days mountain biking. Thanks Liz and Chris for having us!
