    Lovely, homely flat. Highly recommended

    We did not, not like anything; overall, felt it was a fabulous place and very good value for money. Another set of keys (to the flat and building) would have been really useful (or a key safe outside). Sometimes we did different things and were left hanging outside waiting for the person with the keys (in fairness, we didn't ask if another set was a possibility, and I can see routinely giving multiple sets of keys has more risk of getting lost). Also, some lamps in the lounge/dining area would add to the coziness. Saying that, loads is provided, for example fans, cushions and blankets. I'm just a fan of lamps rather than the 'big lights'. Thanks, we hope to come back soon :-)

    Lovely, relaxed, homely feel and we had a fantastic holiday, thanks. John was a great host. Amazing weather helped, too. Fantastic location. Spacious flat and very comfy sofas/chairs with lot of the latest movies available to watch. Also, books, games, DVDs. Loads of towels/towels etc, and plenty of soap/washing up liquid/dishwasher tabs/toilet roll etc. Kitchen well equipped. Felt a safe area and the car park is gated. The gym and pool access was a super added bonus. Lovely little gym with great facilities :-) We didn't have a dog, but it is great they are welcome at no extra cost. Also, I could see or smell no evidence any dogs have been there, no doggy smells or hair. Very good value for money and we would definitely recommend, and we hope to return ourselves.

    Nothing – everything was great!

    We had a lovely stay in Windermere! The location is perfect — close to shops and the park, which was ideal for walking the dog. Having private parking made a big difference, and the access to the pool was a great bonus, especially with kids. The place was clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed. John was very friendly and helpful throughout our stay. We’d definitely come back!

    A little repainting would make a world of difference. But that’s nitpicking

    The location is perfect, 5 minutes from the station. Large 2nd floor flat, quiet road.

    Couldn’t use the parking space due to having a roof box on. Managed to get a space out front but perhaps mention this in the listing.

    Good space for us as a family of 6.

    We loved the location, central yet quiet. It has lovely views. There's everything you need, such as extra towels, lots of cooking utensils and even dog bowls and dog bed. It was really cosy and comfortable and had enough space for our family of 6 plus the pooch. We also enjoyed the spa passes too. There's also games and books for all ages. John is lovely and knowledgeable. We hope we can come again.
