Arriving rather late with disabled farther in-law, set of drums, piano, amplification system ( to perform at Keswick Jazz festival) we were warmly and calmly welcomed and greatly assisted by Jason. The immaculate room had a view over the rooftops to the hills and the sun shone all the time ( at no extra charge). There were guide books and... more

This was our second stay at The Ravensworth- this time we spent four nights there for the Jazz festival. We are surprised by the negative comments recently posted on Trip Advisor. Both Jason and Alison have always been very welcoming and generous hosts- with plenty of advice about local amenities etc if required. The bedrooms and public areas are immaculately... more

My wife and I have have stayed at the Ravensworth on several occasions over the past few years. We consider ourselves to be quite fussy regarding where we stay for our holidays and short breaks away. The fact that we return to the Ravensworth each time we visit Keswick speaks volumes. The first time we met the proprietors, Jason and... more

My wife and I stayed here for 2 nights in Apr 09 (along with friends) and generally had a very nice time. Keswick is a buzzing little town with more than enough pubs and restaurants to cater to all tastes, and of course, is surrounded by beautiful scenery. We opted for the Ravensworth, and picked their best room , "Derwentwater"... more

Not recommended if you require a relaxed friendly atmosphere. Proprietors try to appear welcoming but come across as anxious and fraught. Risk getting your breakfast order wrong or forgetting your front door key at your peril - you will incur the wrath of the potentially very rude and aggressive landlady! more

My boyfriend and I needed a break since neither of us has had a proper holiday in years. Much to our delight, The Ravensworth was perfect - great location and just within our price range. As many reviews before mine have said, this B&B is fantastic. We stayed in the Walla Crag room, with a huge comfortable sleigh bed and... more

I have just returned from a two night break at the Ravensworth House to celebrate my wifes 40th birthday from 21st to 23rd November 2008. I booked the Derwentwater Suite which was absolutely superb. So comfortable and welcoming, it was an absolute joy. Jason and Alison are the best hosts one could wish for and nothing was too much trouble... more

We had a wonderful stay and the owners Jason and Allison are to be congratulated for their great establishment ! It was "bril" as Jason says ! They were happy to make reservations, answer questions and nothing at all was too much trouble. The room 4 poster suite was wonderful, quiet and spacious. Breakfast was wonderful and you submit your... more

Stayed in one of the attic rooms which had a spa bath, great after a long day. It is up 6 flights of stairs so be warned! Very good location right in keswick. The room was comfortable and had a lovely view. Breakfast was ordered the night before which I can't say I had a problem with and we requested... more
