"Just wanted to say that we had a great time at Crandy Nook which we rented with you." Mrs YB, Birmingham "Great apartment, tastefully decorated and furnished throughout, wonderful location, no complaints whatsoever, would definitely return." D, Liverpool "Thank you so much. We had the greatest time in Keswick. Your apartment was such a pleasant treat, so clean that we felt very comfortable there. The weather was fantastic too. The children spent hours looking out the window and drawing. It was a magical week. My daughter is just about finished with the watercolor painting looking out the dining room window. I will make a copy of it and send to you. Thank you again. I hope some time in our lives we'll have the opportunity to return." Mrs PL, USA "Lovely accommodation, really appreciated the bathrooms. Plenty of room for everyone to have their own space." Mrs JC, Doncaster "Lovely despite the weather. Great location and everything in the accommodation great. Will definitely be back and tell our friends! Thanks." Mrs K, London "Amazing week, great weather, great accommodation, great views. Had a lovely week, thanks." SH, Wigan "Great apartment, bathrooms are lovely. Restaurant downstairs (Different Taste) is very good and worth a visit." C&D, Worcester "Well appointed apartment with great views. Would recommend to anyone. Rained all week but creature comforts and location more than compensated. We'll be back sometime hopefully in the not too distant future. Thank you." Mr & Mrs B, Northumberland "Great apartment, fab views, brilliant week. The "walks" in the black folder are good if you have children." The A family, St Helens "What a fantastic week we've had. Spectacular walks straight from the door, film, drama and dance 10 minutes down the road at Theatre by the Lake and superb accommodation. Crandy Nook is such a lovely space to be in - not just comfortable but luxurious. The views both North and South are glorious. I shall miss eating my breakfast looking at Skiddaw range - spell binding, we can not wait to return. Thank you." K&J Reading "Stayed for a month working in area, unfortunately never got to see the town. The property was great. Very comfortable and warm. We enjoyed eating in, a change from pub food all the time. his is the way forward for us. Brill. J, Liverpool "Fantastic place, great views, lots to do even when weather is slightly damp!! Stairs were a killer after a longer walk but added to the fun of the holiday. Will recommend to friends." J&M, Bristol "What a fabulous apartment, big shower cubicles, big baths, big bedrooms, stupendous views from the top floor." M,S,P&L, Hebden Bridge Lovely apartment, well appointed and good location.
