    The location was simply stunning, providing a picturesque backdrop to our weekend break. The apartment itself was not only clean and beautifully appointed but also matched its description perfectly. What truly set this place apart were the thoughtful touches from the owners. Their attention to detail didn’t go unnoticed and added an extra layer of warmth and comfort to our stay. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Highly recommended!

    Most other systems operation are self explanatory. The entry door to the apartment block could be confusing to individuals who are not adaptable or understanding. A net curtain at the front bedroom would be beneficial for privacy. Hope this helps, but as you can see we were very happy with the accommodation

    Negatives? The email detailing how to enter was not really accurate. "PLEASE NOTE...... That due to the Government plan for easing covid-19 restrictions. The communal door is now not in use. There are two private entrances to Leven Reach situated at the front and rear of the property." The communal door is actually in use and needed to be used as we are only given that key. Also the fob only works while pulling the door first. The combination of the meant it took a while to gain access but once in , wow , such a nice apartment. Everything was clean and new . We would definitely come back for any South Lakes trip we do .

    The quality of everything is top notch. Only downside was that the local restaurant and bar (part of the hotel as you approach the apartment) was only open to residents because of Covid so everything was a car journey away. However, that would not stop us returning - the place was immaculate. There was even a nice table and chairs outside so you could sit with your drink and listen/watch the river go by - perfect.

About the location

NEWBY BRIDGE

Bowness-on-Windermere 8 miles.

The small village of Newby Bridge takes its name from the five arched stone bridge built in 1651 over the River Leven. The famous Furness Railway, one of Britain's oldest working standard gauge steam railways, runs between Haverthwaite and Newby Bridge. Visit the Lakeside Hotels and enjoy magnificent views across Windermere and the surrounding fells, or enjoy the Aquarium of the Lakes, where the naturally themed habitats, bring the history of the Lakes vividly to life. Bowness-on-Windermere provides a lovely day out, plus the picturesque village of Hawkshead still retains the charm and character that so endeared it to its most famous residents - William Wordsworth and Beatrix Potter, and admire the views at nearby Gummer's How.
