“The flat made a great base for our walking holiday.”
Mr Wyatt April 2019

“A very nice apartment that I stayed at between moving homes.”

It is clean, well furnished with a modern but cosy feel. Very quiet with a nice balconies front and back, the back overlooking green fields and woods. Very happy with the stay. It is up a steep hill. Windermere is a nice size, small, but with stores and restaurants.
Mrs Stewart February 2019

“The holiday flat is in a brilliant location, however if you find walking difficult, the hill up to the accommodation is very steep when walking from the town.”

The flat is warm and comfortable. Everything was provided in the kitchen even tea towels, soaps cleaning products, cling film bin bags , tinfoil etc. If you intend to eat in and cook a lot, the fridge is quite small and is difficult to store food in. However there is a local coop and a tesco down the hill. The beds are super comfy and plenty of storage for clothes bags and a cupboard for coats and shoes. Brilliant walks around the area. The flat was warm and cosy and well worth the money we paid for our weeks stay. The car park at the back is very tight but after a little practise we found it not too difficult. The views are stunning. If you are an able walker then this flat is definitely well worth a stay.

“A warm, comfortable and very clean, modern apartment in a quiet residential location.”

Views of Lake Windermere are in the distance, through the gaps in the opposite properties but still providing good interest, especially with a sunset or low mists settling just above the Lake's surface. The bedroom balcony overlooks a tumbling stream and wooded hillside; a deer was visible in the early morning. Parking access and space is tricky with a larger car and the description does not mention the very steep walk from Bowness town; not comfortable for everyone perhaps.

Loved the apartment and location and would definitely be back, The only issue is the parking, felt better parking on road at the front

“We have stayed here many times and are always totally happy with our holiday.”

Extremely helpful representative on the telephone when booking holiday any questions that we had were answered clearly and fully, excellent holiday flat well described in the review and met all of our needs,
Mrs Wood June 2018

“The property was listed as having off road parking however this was behind the property along a very steep, narrow single track and the actual parking area was far too small for an estate car to park on.”

A small hatch back may be able to park on it . Therefore I had to park on the pavement at the front of the property and was shouted at by a neighbour. Everything else was great.

“Stunning weekend away!”

“FANTASTIC”

Lovely to arrive at a property and find it to be light, airy and clean. All the rooms were lovely and spacious and the property was located in such a peaceful area. We were lucky with the weather and enjoyed having breakfast on the bedroom patio and a drink in the evening on the lounge patio, while admiring the view of Lake Windermere. The only drawback that might affect some people would be the location as the property is located up quite a steep hill - ok if travelling by car but if walking, this would not suit everybody.

“Stunning and Relaxing Apartment if you rent a car”

This apartment is stunning and relaxing with nice views from all windows. It has 2 balconies where you may eat or have a drink al fresco while enjoying the spectacular views. It was clean and everything was found in good order. We did have a mishap during our stay but both the owner and Cottage Holidays Ltd. (from where we booked this property) handled this as best as they can.The apartment is child-friendly with plenty of space where the children can play but it is located on a long steep hill, so a car is recommended.

“Excellent accomodation”

Close to the resort of Bowness. However, it was a walk down a steep hill and back up again which didn't bother us, but might if disabled or had children in pushchairs. The flat was very clean and had a balcony to the living room and the master bedroom. There was a bath and a power shower with plenty of hot water and central heating. A real home from home which i would recommend to anyone.

“A wonderful stay at Lower Brantfell”

The apartment was very clean. It was comfortable. The view from the apartment was amazing overlooking the Windermere Lake and the otherside a bushland with a small creek. The location was convenient for shopping and the walking distance to the Windermere pier. There were two toilets which was great and the kitchen has all necessary utensils. There were good books to read about the Lakes. We all enjoy the comfortable stay at the nice location.

“Warm, clean and modern apartment!”

The apartment was great, very modern (looking as if it has recently been refurbished), central heating with radiators in every room including the coat cupboard! The kitchen was very well equipped, it even had a small freezer which is useful. Both bedrooms have double beds and flat screen Tv's and built in wardrobes. Bowness town is a short 10 minute walk away, with lots of nice places to eat, drink and shop! Didn't realise there was parking around the back until our third day, but there is. Would highly recommend, and would go back again.

“The Lakes, Amazing.”

This was the first time we went with this company and we enjoyed every minute, the apartment was lovely every thing was clean and very tidy, the beds were soft and a joy to sleep in, it overlook the lake with great views, the lakes are stunning, shops just down the road and plenty of places to eat, We will be back for another holiday as soon as we can.

“A light and comfortable apartment in a great location for explor”

The apartment was spacious,well equiped,clean and well maintained, with a very pleasing decor. The location was good, being close to shops and having a view to the lake. The heating and shower were great and it was good to have 2 toilets. The key box arrangement worked well, meaning we didn't need to meet up with anyone to let us in to the apartment.

“Perfect bolt hole for lake district exploring”

The information sent prior to our visit was clear and simple and told us all we needed to know for our visit. The layout was perfect, clean and well equiped. 2 double bedrooms a bathroom containing bath and shower facilities, a kitchen and living room with excellent views looking over Windermere. The accomodation is located a short distance up a steep hill but close to the centre of bowness, with plenty of pubs, restaurants and shops to meet most needs. I can only speak highly of our accomodation, it was perfect in every way.

“Excellent, contemporary accommodation”

We couldn't fault this accommodation. The flat is spacious, very nice kitchen/diner, absolutely fantastic leather sofas, the spare toilet/bathroom was spot on (no queues). Fully equipped kitchen, responsive central heating for those colder days, spacious garage for one car and a space for another one. Nice view from the balcony. No garden though so don't take badminton with you ;) Short stroll down the hill to the lovely angel Inn and a few more steps to the great Hall in 't Wall. If we liked going back to the same place twice we'd definitely book this flat again. No doubt.
