Summary: Wonderful accommodation, overlooking the gorgeous scenery of Lake Windermere. The apartment had everything and more than you needed. The location is second to none. I would heartedly recommend and will return myself, without hesitation.

Summary: We enjoyed staying in the apartment and it has a stunning view over the lake. Overall we had a great stay but there were teething troubles including finding and switching on the WiFi, hooking up the telly and making it actually work, switching on the heating and warming the apartment. On the plus side, once warm it was very comfortable...

Summary: We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here (3 nights in Nov 2019). The apartment was clean, comfortable and very well equipped. Also the situation right on the edge of the lake with beautiful views across to the mountains beyond was just fantastic. If we are in the area, we will definitely come again. Highly recommended!

Summary: On the whole a really lovely location and of course the view makes it special. The negatives were not a major problem but if I had the bedroom window open at night there is a generator noise and also the smell of cooking early in the morning from the YHA. Also the towels are brittle and could do with replacing and my pillow smelled of a previous guest. But the positives fully outweighed the negatives. I found the place comfortable and well equipped, with lots of bathrooms too. A great base for our holiday.

Summary: Fantastic break. Only reason I dropped amenities to a 9 is there isn't a grocery store nearby.

Summary: A beautiful place, well equiped. The owners have thought of everything. The views are stunning to say the least. Loved that there is a washing machine and dryer in the cellar. The only slightly negative comment is that the bed felt cramped due to the built in bedside tables.. but l think thats quite a personal thing for me. Otherwise it is a stunning comfortable and well placed holiday home. The kitchen is fantastic!!

Summary: Advised by office to park second car in car park 0.6m away, which we did, costing £30 for the week. Then discovered their was a free visitors space attached to the flat! Not best pleased.

Summary: We had to leave early due to illness in family back home, but I would rate the flat a full five stars. Overlooks the lake, and also about 100 yards from boat trip quay. Only drawback we found was no local shops. Nearest in walking distance is Ambleside, but very little there. Best place is Windermere aboout 3 miles in the opposite direction (5 minutes by car). Everything you need is there. Car parking right outside flat door. A word of warning. When you arrive DON'T look for Mereview, as you won't find it - there is NO SIGN. The flat complex is called LAKE VIEW, or LAKE SIDE, or something similar (above the door). We spent half an hour in the rain looking for it and asking locals - none of whom had heard of it.

Summary: Excellent location and obviously a property well looked after. The views of the lake were stunning and what price your own parking space right outside. I would recommend this to all as a great place to stay
