This isn’t a large or very classy apartment but overall it was OK. It’s best feature for me by far is it’s very close proximity to central Bowness. I also enjoyed the balcony on warm sunny evenings. There were some minor downsides but they did add up. There are 28 concrete steps in the stairwell that accesses the apartment and another 100 steps to the residents shared car park. On arrival the main electric heater in the lounge didn’t work. I got it going by cleaning a burnt contact in the plug and fitting a new fuse. The toaster also had a mind of its own – I usually had to hold the leaver down for four minutes. Cleanliness was hit and miss with the bathroom being very clean but the main bed was a bit smelly on my first night. I discovered that while the main bedding had been changed the mattress protector hadn’t been washed and changed and had long black hairs on it and a urine stain. My socks also picked up a lot of dog hairs during the first few days. The bathroom sink was slow to drain and the kitchen sink was a bit whiffy from the overflow pipe but some cheap bleach from the very nearby Co-op soon sorted out these problems. It’s a shame about these cleanliness issues as without them I would have given four stars instead of three as the apartment is otherwise quite nice. During my stay I ordered several Amazon parcels, one of which will not unfortunately arrive until tomorrow (I am now back home). I have informed the property owner and am waiting to hear back from him.

A lovely little apartment. Very close to the town centre. We had a slight hiccup with access but it was resolved. It might have been quicker if the property manager answered the phone but Vrbo customer services got hold of the owner.

Beautiful apartment Andrew the manger was so kind and so helpful

The property was discribed as with parking. On arrival followed instructions for parking but there was no parking space available, contacted agent who said it was a known problem was told to park in public car park that was also full. After a 5 half hour drive, you just want to relax, not go looking for parking. It means every time you go out do not expect a parking space on your return.The flat could do with a deep clean especialy the cooker and hob, do the agents ever check it? The location is ideal, the flat is small and access is via narrow concrete steps, that would not be suitable for anyone with limited mobility. The parking issue means I will not return and willpoint this problem out to others.
