With trees as a backdrop, cast off your shoes and relax on your own private balcony. Only a short stroll from the centre of the bustling town of Bowness, on the edge of Lake Windermere.

Bowness-on-Windermere is a great place to enjoy browsing the shops and perhaps stocking up on picnic supplies before hiring a boat on the water or hop on board one of the leisure cruises which run up and down Windermere at a relaxing pace. Lake Windermere is an easy walk away for lake cruises, boat hire and there are numerous walks from the door including Orrest Head and many more.

Head outside to the balcony from the lounge, where you can sit and relax and enjoy being the same height as the leaves on the trees. There is parking available to the front of the property for two cars.

We loved this upside down house, especially the two boys (aged 8 and 10) It is retro but this adds to the charm, but don't be fooled! it has every mod con you could wish for! There isn't a single thing that hasn't been thought of. Great fridge freezer, fabulous oven. We didn't use the dishwasher but I'm sure that was fabulous as well. Beds and beddRead moreing extremely comfortable, top class bedding and super comfy pillows. Lots of games to play and a smart tv to keep you entertained. Hide

This apartment far exceeded our expectations. Yes, it is a bit 70s retro, but it is exactly as seen in the photos. I absolutely cannot fault it. It is well maintained, spotlessly clean and very well furnished. The kitchen was so well equipped, I dont think I could have thought of anything that wasnt there. Beds and pillows extremely comfortable, anRead mored I often have issues with pillows. Very nice welcoming touch of tea, coffee, milk and cake. Would definitely return. Hide

Perfect location for our trip to the Lakes, property well equipped but (excluding the shower room) very dated, slight musty smell. Beds - the two doubles not overly comfortable, bath towels old and way too small!!

This property is extremely well situated in easy walk of restaurants, pubs and shops, and Bowness and Windermere itself and having off road parking is great. Some may think the property a little outdated but it met all our needs. Plenty of space and extremely clean.

Property needs updating. Also we were not made aware of road noise, we couldnt enjoy a drink on the balcony because of constant traffic noise and exhaust fumes.
