Brigham Farm Apartments

Paw Rating 4.0/5 — drawn from 7 confirmed pet reviews. A solid pet-friendly mid-range choice with a known pet policy (£30 per stay, three specific ground-floor apartments only), set in self-catering apartments near Keswick.

Brigham Farm Apartments sits on the outskirts of Keswick, about 10–15 minutes' walk from the town centre via the old railway path (avoiding the main road). It is a small cluster of self-catering apartments rather than a hotel — three of them (Eamont, Greta, Duddon) are designated pet-friendly, all on the ground floor with garden access. The property requires you to flag a pet in advance and charges £30 per stay.

Pet-traveller experiences are honest rather than uniformly glowing. Positive notes recur on the practical side: free on-site parking, ground-floor access straight to the garden for early-morning and late-night dog needs, the apartments themselves warm and comfortable. The Greta apartment in particular drew strong pet-traveller feedback, with multiple guests appreciating the easy garden access and short walk into town.

Negative feedback exists and deserves flagging. Some pet-bringing guests reported cleanliness gaps — a sofa that smelt of dog, dog hair from previous stays — pointing to inconsistent turnover between stays. The garden, while useful, is not fully enclosed, which one reviewer flagged as a problem for dogs that don't reliably stay close. The property is dated overall and several non-pet reviewers raised the same point.

Brigham Farm Apartments is best suited to dog-owners who value self-catering independence and garden access over hotel-style polish, who can accept some inconsistency in turnover cleanliness, and who don't need a fully-enclosed yard. Confirm one of the three pet-friendly apartments at booking and budget for the £30 pet fee.
