    Excellent location on a hill, 5 mins walk from Lake Windermere and shops/restaurants. Parking is available at the property. The property was excellent, clean, spacious and equipped with more than the basics. It's ideal for a family. Host was excellent, responded immediately to a sink leak and cleared it. He even allowed 5 people to stay with the fifth being an infant. The Netflix account was a bonus.

    we have just returned from a 3 night stay with a toddler and 10 week old baby. The host provided us with an array of child items which made travelling so easy and honestly the apartment has it all. NOTHING at all that hasn’t been thought of here! prime location and exceptional finish.

    Staff were so friendly. Particularly Hazel and Frank. We had a lovely time. The hotel is very clean our family room large and amazing. The pool was clean and the kids enjoyed it too. The restaurant, the food was very tasty and well presented. The breakfast was also very good with an option to order off the menu, instead of having the buffet breakfast which we did. The whole place was lovely and all the staff friendly and loved the children,. Would highly recommend and we will be back. Thank you.
