Guest review

10.0

The apartment is in a great location and is very well appointed. The host was very responsive and helpful. The beds were comfortable and there are lots of windows so you get a good cross breeze in the summer. There is a small Co-Op grocery store next door to pick up breakfast or lunch basics.

Bowness can be a bit noisy on weekends so bring ear plugs if you want to keep the windows open at night.

Well appointed, clean and tidy.

Stairs up to apartment with luggage are killers. We unfortunately suffered from very noisy neighbours. Partying till 3 a.m. two nights.

Beautiful, clean apartment. Everything you could possibly need is there. Perfect location also.

Nothing to dislike.

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

10.0

Excellent location. All Windermere adventures, water sports activities, good walks, bars and restaurants are on the doorstep. The apartment was very clean, fully equipped, well furnished with comfortable beds. Communication from the owners was excellent and I would stay again.

Could have done with more water pressure in shower. Although we had no difficulty, some visitors may struggle carrying luggage from rear car park to front of building.

Clean and in a great location but very basic and not great value.

6.0

Great location, clean and comfortable

It’s really basic. The WiFi is nonexistent so the TV doesn’t work and can’t use on phone etc. Not essential to have TV for us but could have had a working DVD player (the one provided didn’t work) or some games when having downtime or with children. Be good to have some essentials - oil, tea, coffee, sugar, basic toiletries provided. Coffee machine there but no filters so you’d need to go and get everything. Looking at reviews, this isn’t new feedback which is a shame that they haven’t been considered.
