• "We are elderly, and found the shower tray excessively slippery."

  Suggest provision of anti-slip mats is absolutely necessary. Crockery provided was all very large with no smaller plates, bowls or mugs; nor sufficient to enable proper use of dishwasher capacity. Microwave is old and has no provision for timing other than whole minutes. We are sure the owners would see the need for various changes if they stayed there for a week themselves.

• "The photos need updating, especially for the sitting room."

  The right hand springs in the sofa have collapsed, I had to put a cushion under the seat. The parking space is very tight. There’s quite a lot of noise from the very busy bus stops opposite the flat. There was a very unpleasant smell in the downstairs lavatory; i had to spray it numerous times. The flat is very conveniently situated for the town and for visiting the area. The views from the flat are good. A coat rack would be very useful.

  Spotless apartment, well equipped, felt very relaxed as soon as we walked through the door, only small negative for us was the sofa was to soft

• "We really enjoyed our stay at the Bowery."

  The location is excellent and off street parking was a definite bonus. Very clean and well presented. We would definitely go back. The only change I would make is to add a larger sofa as its nice to put your feet up after a long walk.

• "The Bowery is a fantastic place to stay in Ambleside, centrally located, clean and comfortable with ample room for two."

  It was perfect to return to after a day's walk - cosy and warm with the best shower in the Lakes! We will be back.

• "The Bowery was a great place to stay."

  Ideally situated in Ambleside.On arrival,the car parking is a little restricted but adequate.The apartment is a delight.The decor and design are very well done.It is extremely clean and also very comfortable.Everything you require for your stay is there.A vacuum cleaner and a brush would be a useful addition.My only complaint would be that there was a lot of banging coming from one of the premises underneath during the day.They may have been doing some renovations!I would definitely recommend a stay at The Bowery and would definitely book again.

• "Lovely central location, very handy for everything."

  Apartment was nicely furnished and had everything for your stay. The balcony was lovely in the afternoon sun. Would be useful to have somewhere to hang wet clothes to dry when coming in from a walk.

• "A fantastic base to explore Ambleside and surrounding areas with a car parking space, wifi and decent kitchen."

  Facilities are fantastic, the balcony is nice to use and my only minor gripe is no bath (which we knew about when booking) which would make it even more ideal after hikes to have a soak :) and the limited wardrobe space. Overall, a fantastic stay, great weather and good food/restaurants in the area and this is our second and most likely not our last visit. In addition, it is above Luigis restaurant which has great food and service however you should book - both are recommended.

• "We have had a lovely weeks holiday, helped a lot by the glorious weather."

  The accommodation was better than we could have hoped for and met our needs. Hopefully, if The Bowery is available, will be visiting again next year.

• "Had a very good week thanks."

  Excellent holiday apartment. The only extra thing I could think of was that it would have been useful to have some coat hooks. A photo of the patio area would also be useful.

  The only negative is the sofa is not very comfortable.

  Just the settee lets it down. Its not the one pictured and isnt comfortable at all especially after a long day walking.

• "A lovely central property in Ambleside."

  Very convenient for shops and transport. Even though in centre was pretty quiet. Comfy bed, excellent shower. Reasonably good wifi -dropped out occasionally but able to steam film. Lovely view of fells from bedroom window. Very well equipped kitchen with sharp knives. Would rent again. Would not be suitable for someone who struggles with steps and stairs as metal staircase up to apartment and apartment on 2 levels. Only other minor comment, apartment could do with a new sofa as one there was pretty saggy.

  .. Really central, which was a bonus, so you don't have to jump in the car all the time! The weather was perfect! Would have been nice to have had some milk to make a drink, Been to lots of places that have provided a small hamper with eggs, biscuits, tea coffee, bread....

• "This is not the first time at the Bowery Thru have redecorated the living area, looks a lot darker but very nice."

  Everything there that you could need. Very clean and warm during our stay and we’re already planning when we can come back

• "Great property in a great location."

  We stayed 4 nights and place was very clean. Best shower ever. Only problem was there wasn’t a washing machine which means we probably wouldn’t go for longer stay in future as we always have walking clothes that need washing on longer breaks. Also the bathroom is a great size and a bath would be a real bonus for a soak after a day of walking. Finally, it is a different couch in property than in photo, now a leather one and not very comfortable for sitting watching TV. Would I go back, absolutely for a 3 or 4 night stay but no longer due to the reasons above

• "Excellent central location."

  Great views of surrounding hills. Well equipped kitchen, superb shower & spacious bathroom. The only negative is the small & uncomfortable sofa (not the one shown in images).

  Lack of facility to dry/air jackets etc, a clothes horse would be ideal. Otherwise well equipped in good location.

• "Our second stay at The Bowery & it just as lovely as our first visit in 2019."

  Great location in the centre of Ambelside with the bonus of a parking space, spotlessly clean, great linens & a shower to die in at the end of a day on the fells. The downer for us is the price increase for the same week next year 2022 of nearly £200!!…….so sadly this has been our last visit to the Bowery.
