ABOUT
Charnwood is an elegant Victorian listed building offering Bed & Breakfast in Keswick, a small town in the English Lake District. This friendly, family run guest house is ideally situated in a quiet residential area, only 5 minutes walk from Keswick town centre, the lake and the mountains.
OUR ROOMS
We pride ourselves on the homely atmosphere in our family run guest house. All of our bedrooms are en suite. They have colour TV's, tea & coffee making facilities plus complimentary shampoo, shower gel and soap. We offer free Wi-Fi throughout the guest house.
Dogs
We are a dog friendly establishment. Please let us know when booking if you are bringing any dogs and to check you are happy with the rules.
There are a few rules for dogs:
They are not permitted to sleep in or on beds (so please bring a dog bed/blanket for them).
They are not permitted to be left alone in the rooms at any time.
They must be kept on a lead when going in and out of the house because we have two family cats that, while not allowed in the main house, occasionally manage to escape.
Dogs are not allowed in the dining room during breakfast times. We can provide a packed breakfast to eat in your room or you can come down one at a time so the dog is not alone. If you have a dog crate and your dog will settle alone then you may come down together for breakfast
