    Flat is 3 floors up , so climbing stairs.

    A large comfortable flat with all the facilities to make our stay easy. Plenty of room for all our gear (bikers). The secure parking was very useful.

    Oven instructions would be helpful.

    Apartment is airy, spacious and very homely as the photos show. Well equipped and the washing machine and drying rack were very useful with even washing powder and conditioner supplied plus tablets for the dishwasher. Lovely park view from windows. Location was great with a bus stop close by as were two small supermarkets. Larger one, Booths, by train/bus station. John very kindly collected us from the train station and returned us which we much appreciated as even though not far it wouldn’t have been fun in the rain with our cases. We enjoyed apartment as a couple but a family with children would also be comfortable and relaxed in the apartment. Excellent value.

    If you're bothered by the decor then this place needs an update.

    A decent size flat right in the village and with proper off street parking. There was plenty of space for our toddler to run around. The kitchen had everything we needed. The beds were comfy and the flat spotlessly clean.

    Nothing to dislike.

    Perfect location within walking distance to shops and restaurants. The apartment had everything we needed as a family of 4. Really nice touch with the netflix and amazon tv. The kitchen was fully equipped with dishwasher and washing machine. Bowness is only a few minutes drive or roughly 30 minutes walk to visit the shops and the lake.

    John was there to meet me and show me around which was very helpful. Great to have secure allocated parking. Large, comfortable flat with all you need for a self catering stay. Quiet considering it was quite a central location. Very handy for popping out to shops and to access lots of lovely places further away in the Lakes or just nearby in Windermere area.
