Amazing location, smart apartment

Arrangements worked well, the owner was very helpful, and the apartment was well-equipped - and at least as good as described. The adjacent hotel and its garden was a great benefit. And the scenery and walks that are possible from the door are amazing.

Lovely apartment, everything you might need and more! Quiet,dark bedrooms, well equipped kitchen, space to eat, stunning scenery, easy reach of Penrith and some amazing places to visit, I could go on and on. We stayed during a family wedding at Inn on the lake, and the apartment is in the grounds, opposite the reception bar. The only thing I could say to bring it down slightly for some people would be the entrance steps, not a problem for us and were well lit and clear. Couldn't have asked for more. Simply beautiful.

Fabulous stay at UllswaterWe had family staying in the Hotel as we were all at a family wedding. We enjoyed our stay here which was value for Money when you look at the hotel prices, everything about our stay was perfect, we couldn’t fault anything and we were a family of 5 with a baby, so not the easiest to accommodate, we will be looking to stay again if we’re ever in the area.
