    I have zero complaints, if I had to pick one thing I would say the bed had a little uneven feeling and made noise but was comfortable enough all the same

    Beautiful, well equipped, and fab location

    Nothing, it was faultless

    Everything thank Steve and Vicky for making our stay so special with the balloons and bits for my birthday. It meant so much and the card was the icing on the cake. Location I cannot fault. Walking distance to two lovely towns and some amazing views if you want to venture out further

    No issues at all. The only downside is that there's no view to enjoy from within the apartment, as you're just in the back garden of the main B&B, but that's the compromise of staying in the dog friendly studio and just encourages you to get out and about more!

    Friendly service, great location, suits the dog very well with the small courtyard. Good base for exploring nearby towns.

    Nothing really. Only slight thing was fencing didn’t look fully secure on one side, so we didn’t risk letting our dog off lead just in case.

    Facilities, quiet location, off street parking. Well thought out accommodation. Perfect for couples and dog. Easy to manage booking; Steve & Vicky excellent hosts and on hand if necessary. Particularly liked location; 10 minute walk into Bowness with plenty of places to eat and drink. Slightly longer walk to Windermere. (15 minutes) Both bath and shower facilities; underfloor heating; tv in both lounge and bedroom.

    We liked everything except having to leave.

    This apartment is spotlessly clean, and perfectly located between Windermere in one direction and Bowness in the other so you can reach everything. The hosts were extremely welcoming and helpful during our stay. The kitchen is well-stocked with all the appliances you might need. We had everything we needed for a quiet Lake District long weekend and can't wait to go back again!

    Nothing, I would happily stay again

    Property was easy to find and I always like hosts who get in touch before you go to check you know where you are going. It has it's own private parking spot and there is street parking also if need. It was modern and clean with plenty of kitchen items to use for self catering needs. It's a 10-15 minute walk into Windermere depending on your walking speed and it's pretty much a straight line so it's easy to get into nice walk back up some steep hills always good for the legs!

    We liked the whole set up of the house. It felt secure with the location of the house and had everything needed for the time we were there. We really enjoyed the spa bath that was a big highlight of our stay. The hosts Steve and vicky sent us a text to welcome us and were available to answer any queries we had whilst there. This was further reassurance for us and made us feel more comfortable. Thank you for being such great hosts.
