A few days in the Lakes

This was a beautiful property, a great setting with lovely views. I could have sat there all day watching the beautiful little birds. Easy to reach the western/ northern lakes with lots of walks to tackle. Beds very comfortable. All you could need in the cupboards. Plus some home made cookies that my son and husband drooled over! Thanks a lot.

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.

Lovely clean, cosy apartment.

Great Week Away

This apartment exceeded expectations: everything was clean, comfortable and most importantly - affordable! The living room was a particular highlight as we enjoyed the great views from the balcony and the light from the ceiling windows, with bird feeders giving us morning entertainment during breakfast time. Ray and Margaret were always a phone call away, though we never found ourselves in want of anything. Cockermouth, Keswick and Whitehaven are all about half an hour away from the apartment which means it has great access to the highlights of the Lake District. Overall, I would highly recommend this apartment and would definitely come back again.

Exploring the area

Loweswater Apartment. We were met on arrival by our hosts Margaret and Ray who welcomed us and provided a comprehensive tour of the apartment and all of its amenities and equipment also kindly providing us with local information about the area places to eat and we may wish to visit which was very helpful. The photographs on the web page do not capture or provide a true reflection of this accommodation and we were both pleasantly surprised as it far out passed our expectations. The fitting and furnishings were of the highest quality with everything we required and would wish for. The place was warm and comfortable and provided a superb base for our weeks stay. If you are looking to visit the lakes and wish to avoid the busy areas around Windermere this places provides easy access to the National Park without the hassle that other areas can experience. Margaret and Ray were always available if required at the end of the phone but other than on our arrival we did not need their help. I would highly recommend this apartment and would not hesitate checking availability if we are intending to revisit the area.

Beautiful home from home in a peaceful setting

This apartment has everything you need ,and some lovely extras,for a comfortable and relaxing holiday.perfect location to explore the areas of loweswater, which is now our favourite Lakeside walk. And Ennerdale water. Even though we were there over a bank holiday the area was not heaving with tourists as the central Lakeland areas always are.so for us a perfect holiday. Thanks to Ray and Margaret for making us feel so at home when we arrived.
