The property is well-equipped and serves as a great base for exploring the Lake District, offering a comfortable and peaceful stay.
Cleanliness
Most guests found the property to be very clean, with several positive comments on its tidiness. However, a few guests mentioned issues with cleanliness, such as dog hairs and unwashed dishes, which slightly lowers the score.

The location is highly praised for its stunning views and convenience to the ferry, making it an ideal base for exploring. Some guests noted traffic issues related to the ferry, but overall, the location is considered excellent.
Comfort
Guests find the property comfortable, with a particularly comfy bed and tranquil setting. Some guests suggested improvements like additional seating and non-slip mats in the bathroom, indicating room for enhancement in comfort.
Facilities
The property is well-equipped, but there are several mentions of maintenance issues such as a broken blind, ineffective can opener, and a need for better kitchenware. These points suggest that while facilities are good, they require attention.
