A great 5* all round holiday! The apartment was immaculate and perfect in every way! We especially enjoyed the balcony in the afternoon when the sun deemed to come out.Location is great, not far from National trust sites and just a short walk to the bus stop for a trip through the Lake District. We also enjoyed a walk along the canal path to Carnforth.

An amazing stay, its in the ideal location for Windermere and local places. Lots of nice historical places nearby too. The apartment had everything and the balcony was ideal with a book and a glass on a cool evening. Plenty of parking spaces too so I wasn't stressed about that. I will definitely be returning in the future
