  Disappointing

  Location is excellent and parking a bonus

  The damp smell throughout the flat especially in the bedroom really spoilt our holiday.. needs sorted!! Wouldn’t recommend, if we could have found somewhere else to stay we would have left.

  Love Bowness and would definitely use this property again

  Perfect for two people in a great location

  Slightly tricky access to the parking space if you have a larger car but okay providing you take your time

  Overall we really enjoyed our stay and would stay in this property again.

  The property was spacious, clean and comfortable. The kitchen was well equipped. Excellent location, a short walk to shops and restaurants, and bus stop. Located on a quiet residential street. The private parking was very convenient, only a metre from the entrance so unloading the car couldn’t be easier.

  We liked everything about the property but have a few observations that could improve it. The main observation is that the bath flexed when standing in it having a shower…a bit alarming! The bath is not properly supported underneath and could potentially crack when standing in it as it is under strain. This would not be the fault of the person standing in it, but a result of weakening over time. The backs of the wardrobes were damaged or incomplete, looked a bit of a mess. Floor level kitchen cupboards had no backs (don’t know if this was some or all…didn’t look at them all). Entrance would benefit from having an absorbent longer rug to stand on on entering. We had some rainy days (not unknown in the Lake District), and rain water soon pooled on the floor. The only other thing to mention was that at some times during the day, late afternoon, loud footsteps could be heard above. This didn’t go on for too long or too late or too early so wasn’t a bother to us, but best to be aware of it prior to booking.

  Not disabled friendly

  Bowness is lovely shame about the property

  Not disabled friendly, lane to property uneven, pot holes needs resurfacing really badly, not suitable or safe to use electric wheelchair, luckily walking sticks brought. Bath showe screen needs replacing, also no rails to help with bating transfers. Better directions to get to property needed. Sofa to low for someone disabled, also bed way too soft
