Great base to holiday in the Lakes

Overall great. Ray and Margaret showed us round the apartment and made sure we knew how everything worked. Very good information pack provided. Access to apartment is via an outside metal fire escape style staircase which was slippery when wet. Bedrooms and bathroom have sky lights only and to see the best view from lounge requires you to stand at the window due to the height. It would be a great addition if if there was decking or balcony to use from the patio doors in the lounge.

schöne Ferienwohnung am Rande des Lake Districts

Die Ferienwohnung ist gemütlich, sehr gut ausgestattet und gut als Ausgangspunkt für Ausflüge ins Lake District oder an die Küste geeignet - perfekt, um einen ruhigen, erholsamen Urlaub zu verbringen. Der Kontakt mit den Vermietern war herzlich und unkompliziert.

Lovely clean, cosy apartment.

The owners were very helpful, even rang us on the way there to let us know of a road closure and to give us new directions. The apartment was lovely, clean, cosy and warm. In a good location for some lovely walks.

Perfect base for north Lakes

We were absolutely spoilt. The accomodation was superb especially the little touches like the bird feeders! Superb location for some of the quieter areas of the Lakes. Thank you

About the host

Loweswater apartment was originally our holiday home in the Lakes, where we spent many enjoyable holidays before retiring to Cumbria in the Western Lake District. Loweswater offers a feeling of real homeliness not just a holiday rental, a great place to relax. The apartment is full carpeted throughout , ( kitchen floor and bathroom excepted which have tiled floors ) and is fully furnished with all those little extras to make your stay a very pleasant experience. From the moment you walk in to the apartment you will appreciate the light which floods in through the large floor to ceiling French doors.
