A great stay in a beautiful and fully equipped apartment. The only down side personally was the location on a busy road. We found the noise loud but we are not used to noise at home. Great location for getting about and seeing the beautiful Lake District. The owner is very helpful and available if you need help.

We loved the location: walkable to a good selection of restaurants and pubs as well as a choice of supermarkets. The apartment itself had a well equipped kitchen and was very clean.
