About this property

Mona House - a pet-free, family/group friendly house in central Keswick

Mona House is a 4 bedroom Victorian terraced house sleeping 8 people in 4 bedrooms with flexible sleeping arrangements. It is a 3 minute level walk from the town centre, 10 minutes from the lake and within a short walk of the play parks, cycle track etc. We have set the house up to be used as we use it - as a base to enjoy The Lakes' outdoors. There is storage space in the house for kit, lots of walking and cycling guides together with things like local weatherproof maps, picnic boxes and flasks etc. We also provide information to help you make decisions on where to go and what to do which saves you valuable time, especially over a weekend. Free wifi. No loud music / partying allowed in the house at any time and sorry no pets.

Great location for our stay in Keswick
Excellent communication from Nigel (the owner) and the house is very well presented and in a fantastic location close to the town centre, Fitz Park and the Lake. I would have no hesitation in booking the house again!

Golfing and sightseeing visit to theLakes
The property is in excellent conditions and under 5 mins to the town centre. Located in a residential street with good on street parking. The bedrooms were all good size and the owner had left lots of maps and leaflets for activities in the area including walks , cycling, lake activities etc. This was an ideal base and Keswick is a great town with lots of restaurants/bar meals to suit all budgets. For groups or 2 families this would make an ideal base.

Wonderful property in the heart of Keswick, clean, comfortable and very well equipped
We loved our stay at Mona House. The property was large and really well equipped for our two families, totalling 9 people. The beds were super comfortable and the bathrooms were lovely. Everywhere was very clean and tidy. The property is also well located, very near to the centre of Keswick with all its charming shops and facilities. Thanks so much, we are already planning our return.

About the host

Hosted by Nigel Ezard

Host profile image
I live in Yorkshire with my wife and 2 young children. I have spent the last 15 years primarily caring for the children and Mona House is the result of one of my several 'projects' which have helped keep me sane during that time! Keswick is a place I have known since childhood - first as a camping destination, later for its mountain biking and fell walking and now as a great place for family adventures.

Why they chose this property

The house came to our attention primarily because it's sale kept falling though. When we bought it in 2009 it had rising damp, a leaking roof and many other problems which needed attention - which meant we could afford something we'd never dared dream of. Undeterred by the work we bought it and employed a local builder to drag it back to life...and I myself spent many evenings camped out on the building site floor. For us, the main attraction of Keswick is that it's a place where we can access all we'd want to do without having to travel more than 15 minutes in a car (if at all). In the immediate area there's walking, cycling, boating/watersports, a climbing wall, play park, cinema, theatre, swimming pool, shopping, eating and of course endless rounds of crazy golf!
