The accommodations were great and the food was excellent
Highly Recommended and we hope to return soon
Excellent, high quality B&B. The welcome and check-in set the tone for a first class visit. Our room was spacious, immaculate and comfortable. The breakfast choice was great, really liked the option to have a lighter avocado on sourdough as a change from the full English, which was also lovely! Thank you, we will definitely be back!!
Super guest house in Keswick - friendly and helpful owners - excellent accommodation. Will stay there again.

Really enjoyed my stay. The room was quiet, warm and comfortable, and the breakfast was excellent. Liz & Chris were warm and welcoming, and gave good advice for exploring the area. Wouldn't hesitate to stay here again if I'm back in Keswick.
We had a fab 2 night stay at Goodwin House and would love to go back again one day. Stayed in the Skiddaw Room at the top of the house and the views were amazing. A lovely and exceptionally clean and comfortable room with everything you’d need for a stay, including the most gorgeous smelling toiletries! Chris and Liz were really lovely hosts and made us feel very welcome. Breakfast was delicious and plentiful and the homemade granola scrummy! We’ll be back! X
Superb hosts great location and fantastic guest house excellent breakfast and couldn’t recommend more.Keswick is a stunning place to visit and will definitely be back sometime soon.
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 :)
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.
Hosts Liz and Chris are lovely, very welcoming. Breakfast options are amazing. Highly recommend Liz's homemade granola and the avocado on sour dough. Would definitely recommend this property and will definitely visit again, great location.
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.
Immaculately clean and tidy in all areas.
Food was excellent, fresh and locally sourced
Proprietors were very friendly and helpful.
Downside was availability of parking- had to find onstreet.
