Lovely apartment in a very quiet location but close to everything we needed. Walks out the door are great, we used the buses which leave on the main road down the hill. The place was spotless and well equipped. A really nice stay.

Beautiful location - well equipped and very clean apartment. The balcony up in the trees with views over a pretty pond and woodland was gorgeous.. Enjoyed walks straight from the apartment with great views too Thank you
Exactly as advertised. Lovely views from the balcony. Great value for money. Leaving us some milk, oil for cooking and biscuits was greatly appreciated. The kitchen was fit for purpose and zero complaints from us
The apartment had everything needed and more. Excellent location with Loughrigg Fell on the doorstep. The entire apartment was very well equiped, games, books, maps to plan walks. I would definitely book again.
This is a lovely well equipped apartment in a great location in the heart of the South Lakes, with wonderful walks straight from the door & well positioned for exploring further afield. The owners are accommodating & quick to respond to queries. I’ve stayed here a few times now & will definitely be back.
The appartment has everything you would need for an extended stay. It was so comfortable and well equipped. We adored the view from the lounge and main bedroom, overlooking the small tree-lined lake with ducks and birds in abundance. So peaceful and relaxing. We will be back!
The location was perfectly situated central to most places we wanted to visit but it was quite hard finding it at night, the apartment was very lovely and nicely decorated. We were equipped with everything we needed .

Very clean property in charming but very remote surroundings. The scenery was stunning, we were driving distance from any shops though so unfortunately as the weather was terrible we were isolated.The outside stairs, as reported , could be slippery when wet, and were also quite high steps - impossible for our dachshund and I also found them difficult.For a younger, fitter family with either no dog or a big dog this would not be a problem and the property is full of character and very well equipped.
Lovely stay despite the weather. Our second stay here and it's always good to know you have the pool as a back up plan to entertain the children if the weather is poor. Great walks from the front door. Comfy beds. Idyllic location.
I definitely recommend staying here. Perfect location and all the amenities are spot on.
Thank you for such a lovely place to stay. We will be coming back very soon!!!
Apartment well-equipped and very peaceful site. Great location with some good walks available next to the site too. We had awful weather, so it was great to have decent heating and ability to dry our clothing in the flat.
This was a very comfortable and well equipped apartment in a great location. The owners communicated in a helpful and friendly way. With a little redecoration and upgrade of the shower it would be 5 stars.
The flat is in the perfect location for exploring the area. Very easy check in and the in-door pool was perfect for the kids. Perfect size for our family with two kids under 2. The local walk up hill has great views.
