About Avondale Guest House

Avondale Guest House occupies a Victorian home on Southey Street, spread over two floors and kept small with just six rooms. The period character remains in the warmly decorated bedrooms and a bright lounge, giving the place a settled, homely feel rather than a hotel one.

Each room comes with an en-suite bathroom and in-room drinks, and breakfast is included to set guests up for the day. Packed lunches can be arranged for those heading out walking, and there's a garden with outdoor seating for quieter moments. Reception is staffed around the clock, luggage storage is available, and the whole property is adults-only, which suits the calm atmosphere. There's no parking on site, so those without a car will find it straightforward, but drivers should plan ahead.

The location puts Keswick's market square and Derwentwater within walking reach, alongside cycling and walking routes into the wider Lake District. Golf, fishing and watersports are all nearby, and the town's pubs, restaurants and entertainment are close enough for an easy evening out after a day on the fells.

What guests say

Yasmine

We really enjoyed our stay at Avondale guest house. It's ideally located, the rooms are clean and well thought out and there's everything you need. The breakfast was really good and added bonus of homemade jam, marmalade and bread. The hosts are really nice and you might see them also enjoying the fells whilst out and about. 100% recommend and we'll definitely come again!

Fantastic stay. Great hosts who made us feel welcome and nothing was too much of an ask. Great location. The room was very well presented, very clean and full of local and sustainable products. We would definitely look to book here again in the future.

This is an excellent place to stay. It's very clean, comfortable and just a short stroll to the main square. The quality of breakfast is outstanding and Amy and Chris certainly know what they're doing. We will definitely look up Avondale on any future trips to Keswick.

Great place, nice rooms, owners are lovely and will do anything for you. A must try is the home made sourdough bread. Located two minutes from the centre of Keswick. Been there twice and will certainly be staying there again.
