Quarry End

A great well equipped property in an ideal position for enjoying Bowness and Lake Windemere.

A very well equipped house which was perfectally situated just a couple of minutes from the high street.

The house was spotless and modern and every need was catered for and more.

First rate accommodation in very close and easy walking proximity to Bowness and Lake Windermere.

Plenty of restaurants and shops on the doorstep, and delightful towns and villages within easy travelling distamce. Our 4th stay. Hghly recommend.

We were all pleasantly surprised at the accommodation.

Perfectly situated in the town centre but out of the way from traffic and away from the hustle and bustle. The accommodation was beautifully decorated and clean and had everything you could ever need. It also had a wellstocked tea and coffee tray. To top it off it had its own private parking space.

This was the second time we have stayed at Quarry End.

We enjoyed staying the first time but owing to bad weather did not see a lot of the area. The house was as well equipped and maintained on our second visit when the sun shone and we visited various areas around Bowness. Would highly recommend Quarry End for both the house and the location.

The property was in a lovely quiet street, but a short distance to the main road with shops/ restraunts, bus routes and Lake Windermere itself.

The designated car parking space was a real bonus. The property itself was exactly as described.

Quarry End was spotless and had everything you needed.

All furnishings were comfortable and high end. The location so close to all amenities was great. Would highly recommend this property.

Just back from our second visit to Quarry End which says it all.

A spacious, very clean and comfortable house in a perfect situation in Bowness on Windermere, (in the thick of it yet very quiet and with two parking spaces!) The owner, Janet, is a lovely lady who is always happy to help yet very discreet, leaving you to enjoy your holiday. We are aiming to return next year!

Wonderful house to stay in bowness.

Great facilities. Attention to detail has been made on this property. Great location. At the start of main high street. Have recommended to family and friends.

Quarry end is in a perfect location easy reach of everything well recommend and we will definitely have a 3rd visit love the lakes full stop.

We enjoyed a really lovely week at Quarry End.

The house is very warm and comfortable and in walking distance of the shops and the lake. We look forward to returning next year.

Our second stay and just as good as we remembered it last time.

The accommodation and location within the town centre are exceptional and the host Janet could not have been more helpful. This is the best holiday accommodation we have stayed in and we most definitely will be returning,

Our second time at this wonderful property and if anything we found it to be even better than our very positive recollections of the first visit!

The property is tucked away in a peaceful location but is also so handy for the Lake and all the facilities in Bowness - in very easy walking distance. Good on site parking for two cars is also a real bonus for Bowness! The house is superbly equipped, is very well decorated, clean, light and airy. We met Janet (the owner) who was most helpful and friendly without at all being intrusive. She deserves real credit for all the lovely generous finishing touches which adorn this property .We had a super holiday and would have no hesitation in coming back to this wonderful house. Superb!

Had an wonderful holiday in this beautiful home from home property.

The house is set in the perfect location,just a few minutes stroll away from the centre of Bowness. The property consists of everything you could possibly need for your stay,with extra attention given to make your stay here more comfortable and welcoming. We had the pleasure of meeting the owner briefly, whom could not make us feel more welcomed, lovely lady! We will definitely be returning again!

Quarry End is a lovely modern and airy property with lots of space including outside garden area.

It has private parking which is a bonus in windermere and central to shops, cinema, restaurants, leisure activities and bars. The property was clean the beds were clean and comfortable the bathroom had a bath and separate shower, we did feel that the wash hand basin was very low given that when you bent down to wash your face your forehead came into contact with the glass shelf this is one to watch out for. If we had one criticism it would be on entering the property there was a heavy lingering rancid food smells in the lower hallway, kitchen and living space. After a quick look around we identified three areas where the smells were coming from. The cooker hood and filter were greasy. We decided to give both a good hot wash. The oven door, elements, sides and top were needing a deep clean. We decided not to use the oven as there were old food particles sticking to the elements. All three kitchen window pull down blinds were stained and had turned from i assume white to a old food smelly brown, they definitely need changing. If you're asking clients to pay top end prices then the accommodation should reflect that price point.

We had such a wonderful week at Quarry End.

A fantastic house, so clean & comfortable. Very kind & generous treats such as cake, milk, biscuits, teas, coffees, toiletries were a lovely surprise & very much appreciated. We were lucky to have amazing weather so we were able to enjoy the private outdoor space. A great location, just a few minutes walk to the centre and the lake. A huge bonus to have private parking too. We have been to Bowness a few times before and this is the best place we have stayed. We hope to return in the near future.

Lovely property and a great location

Great property, very clean and very well equiped, Welcome pack was well apprecialted, we would gladly stay again.

This is an extremely well appointed property in a great location for Lake Windermere and beyond.

We would strongly recommend this property and would be happy to book again if we returned to Bowness. The welcome packs - kitchen, coffee station and bathroom toiletries - were very thoughtful. On a very small point, whilst the kitchen was very well appointed, including lunch boxes which were very useful, it would have been helpful to have clingfilm and foil for our stay.

Fantastic house in the centre of Bowness, the kitchen has more utensils and crockery than a restaurant, large open living and dining area with a patio door leading to the outside sitting area.

Two lovely bedrooms and a bathroom with a great walk in shower. Decorated to an exceptional standard and very well maintained.

We had a wonderful stay here and could not fault a thing.

The property is perfectly located in Bowness with the added bonus of the two parking spaces. It is light, bright, spacious and beautifully decorated. The owner really has thought of everything with the design and decor with lots of special touches. The larger of the two bedrooms has a large comfortable bed and the room is spacious with lots of light and ventilation from having the doors to the Juliette balcony. It was a joy to come back here every day after exploring The Lakes and we will definitely stay here again.

This was our 2nd stay at Quarry End and so we knew what to expect after our 1st visit back in October 2019.

Having stayed in Bowness on many occasions over the last 15 years Quarry End is the best property that we have stayed in. Perfectly located with a 2 minutes walk into the town centre, the property is immaculate and simple has everything that you could want in a home away from home. Janet the owner has set very high standards and the welcome pack (including cake!) gives you a strong idea of how comfortable the staff will be. The 2 parking spaces are a huge bonus given the location and the house is kitted out beautifully. We will certainly be back again in the years to come - ideal base for exploring the Lakes.

Enjoyed our week at quarry End beautiful cottage in the right spot for a bit of peace?

Cottage excellently equipped with every thing you could want even down to Extras a lovely carrot cake,milk,flowers,etc and it goes on Janet is a lovely person and very helpful nothing to much trouble at all, we will be back ,and would definitely recommend to friends and family Wendy&Colin (Jones)

Wonderful place everything needed for our stay .

..wonderful host helped with a problem we had taking a parcel in while we were out...very helpful...lovely lady. Will definitely visit again so near to all amenities but the accommodation was outstanding

A wonderful holiday let.

The house was very comfortable and well equipped and the cleanliness and attention to detail 5 star. Everything had be done to make us feel welcome and our stay hassle free. Would definitely recommend it to friends and family.

It was one of the best properties that we have stayed in.

Everything was there to make you feel you were at home. Also very close to the shops and in a quiet area.

Very nice property and great location within Bowness Little issue with Wi-Fi but dealt with effectively by the owner

Excellent property, so clean and had everything you need.

Great location just 5mins from the shop.

Lovely property located in an ideal position.

Everything needed was supplied. Little extras were appreciated. Janet is a lovely person. Only thing for me was, small towel too small to wrap around wet hair, next size far too big for this purpose. nice towels though. Would return again if staying in this area.

An excellent property - well situated and wonderfully equipped.

If anything your descriptions do not do it full justice!

Comfortable and well appointed Janet ensured everything went well Great position and good parking

Beautiful apartment.

Very quiet. Everything you need. 5 minutes walk from central Bowness. We will be back!

Excellent property, very comfortable, great location and equipted to a high standard.

Highly recommended.

Fantastic property and location!

Quiet, tucked away right behind the shops in Bowness so great to grab fish and chips takeaway easily! The home had everything you needed, was comfortable and of high quality. When we arrived we weren't sure exactly where to park - it's Quarry End, which is right next to 37 Quarry Brow, just go up the hill and it's near the end of hte left! hth. Would definitely return.

We really enjoyed our stay, cottage very clean and Janet has provided everything you could possibly need for your stay.

Great location near to shops, lake and a good selection of pubs and restaurants. We would recommend this cottage and are already planning to return!

Quarry End was a lovely place to stay.

It was comfortable, clean and modern with everything you could need. Ideal location for exploring the area, lots of places to eat and drink. Having a place to park the car was an added bonus. In fact we only went out in the car once as we walked and used the ferry and cruises to visit different places. We would definitely stay here again. Highly recommend.

Beautifully designed.

Conveniently located - a couple of minutes from the lake and High St, yet pleasantly quiet in itself, with good parking space. Very well equipped (we even picked up a couple of houseware tips for home). The perfect place to kick back on a rainy day, and a great base to explore the area. Plenty of local info available - leaflets, walk books, a fab book about the Lakeland poets that had me roaring with laughter at its description of the early "picturesque" tourists. Owner nearby, helpful without being the least intrusive. Hard to find a better place to stay, I should think.

Well appointed, elegantly furnished, comfortable and in an excellent position relative to the town.

Will come again.

Property is well maintained and fabulously clean.

Well situated for restaurants, bars, walks and short walk to piers and bus routes. Possibly needs another standard settee if more than 2 adults are holidaying as 2nd sofa is too low. Overall a lovely holiday home and would stay again.

Quarry End was everything we wanted and more!

My wife and I spent 7 nights here and found to be excellent. It was very fresh, spotlessly clean, very comfortable and extremely well equipped. Really, it has everything you could ask for. The kitchen is superb and the smart TV was a nice touch as we were able to watch a few movies on Netflix in the evenings as the nights are now drawing in. It is situated at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac with pedestrian routes to shops and restaurants only a couple of minutes walk away. It really is so handily placed for getting into Bowness town and of course Lake Windermere. Janet was really helpful and there to answer any questions that we needed answers to when we needed them. We travelled to the lakes in an electric car and although there were places not far away to charge, Janet allowed us to use her 7KW charger and we paid her for her costs to do so. Really convenient and very thoughtful of Janet to allow us to do this. I'd thoroughly recommend Quarry End if you are looking for somewhere to stay in the area. We'll be back again soon!

Wonderful accommodation, clean and tidy.

Great location, close to all amenities. Owner was warm and welcoming on arrival, lovely lady. Really enjoyed our stay, would recommend to anyone reading this review.

Fantastic accommodation in a perfect location.

Our second visit to this cottage and not our last.

Great accommodation, great location, every facility within the accommodation.

Fantastic place to stay.

Great location for shops restaurants and the lake. Felt at home with all the high quality fittings and furnishings. The kitchen was well equipped with everything we needed and more. Lovely welcome from Janet with a plate of tiffin and milk in the fridge. Clean and well looked after property. Would love to stay again.

This is a modern property which has everything you could possibly need.

It is superbly located

We booked Quarry End for our honeymoon.

We were not disappointed. Location is fantastic - just a minute's walk from the main street, but tucked away in a quiet road. The accommodation itself was excellent. It was immaculately clean, the fixture and fittings were all very high spec and it had absolutely everything we needed. We highly recommend.

Superb location.

Was met by the owner who gave us a warm welcome. Nothing was too much trouble. Accommodation was outstandingly clean and equipped. Would recommend this accommodation to anyone wanting to stay in Bowness.

A good location and a well equipped kitchen.

Photographs of the second bedroom were very misleading. The bedroom represents a health and safety hazard with severe sloping ceilings which mean that not only do you have to duck immediately on entry to the bedroom but also it is impossible to move around the bed without contorting your body. We invited a friend to stay with us for three nights and were embarrassed that she had to sleep in this room. She suffered hard bumps to the head on two occasions. The bathroom is very small with a ridiculously small wash basin. The extremely low red seating in the lounge area is totally unsuitable for more elderly guests and we really didn't understand why it was there as opposed to a proper settee since no children are allowed. There was a very unpleasant smell of drains coming from the utility room. This was reported and the owner was responsive in calling a plumber the next day. A leak was found and fixed but the smell remained. It is disappointing that the owner was apparently oblivious to this fault and had not had it resolved before our arrival. We are great fans of Sykes but this property has let you down.

Fabulous modern open plan well thought out property,right in the centre of where you need to be, 1 minute walk to all the amenities of bowness ie restaurant,shops,pubs, lake.

yet still giving you the quiet and secluded feel when in the property, Parking spaces added bonus. Everything you need to be able to stay in and cook and entertain with every modern item and facility required. Janet the lovely lady owner always close by if needed for her knowledge of the surroundings otherwise she’ll happily let you get on with your stay. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this place to family and friends,and would return to this home from home in the future.

We managed to book Quarry End at very short notice, having been let down by a previous booking because of Covid regulations.

We arrived a little early and Janet was there, and gave us a lovely welcome. Quarry End is an impressive property and deserves its five tick rating. It is situated literally two minutes from the shops/restaurants and give minutes for the lake shore. It's modern but with a comfortable twist. Ample parking directly outside the property is a real bonus in Bowness. It was absolutely spotless (I've never seen such a shiny set of cutlery!) with extra Covid controls at the forefront of the pre-arrival cleaning procedures. It had so many personal touches (cake, milk, tea and coffee for our arrival, lovely soft towels, crisp bedding and hand soap by every sink). It was warm, comfortable and so well thought out. With Covid regulations, we were limited on going out to eat, which is what we would normally do, but we spent at least half our holiday cooking and eating at Quarry End as it was such a lovely place to be (not to mention the great kitchen facilities). Netflix and Amazon Prime were a real bonus! We wouldn't hesitate in recommending this lovely home and will definitely be back. If you are thinking of booking it - do it - NOW!

We stayed at Quarry End Cottage for 5 nights and we will definitely be returning in 2022.

The property was clean, beautiful and in a prime location with shops, pubs and activities only a short walk away. Janet is an exceptional host, easily contactable (not that we needed to) and the facilities had everything we could have hoped for. All in all the trip was delightful, we were in a great location and was presented with a great deal of information about the surrounding area. We can not recommend the property enough.

Great spot with parking for two cars, well appointed property that was super clean

Quarry End is a gorgeous, well laid out house in a fantastic location, and had everything we could possibly need or even think of and much more.

Janet welcomed us on arrival, and little extras awaited us inside. We cant recommend enough. It was perfect and we very much enjoyed every moment here.

A truly superb holiday letting which is perfectly equipped and ideally situated in terms of its proximity to local amenities.

A perfect base for the beautiful Lakes. Very highly recommended.

We have just returned from a week at the fantastic Quarry End Cottage.

Everything about the cottage was perfect, the location, although literally 2 mins from the shops and restaurants of Bowness, its position is very quiet and private. The cottage itself was beautifully furnished and had everything you need for the perfect staycation. Although we have been to the Lakes many times this was the first time in Bowness and definitely won’t be the last. Janet was extremely helpful and made sure we had everything we needed. Highly recommend for those needing a base camp near to all amenities and in easy reach of the rest of the Lakes. There was even bike storage and parking for two cars! Recommend a day at Grizedale on the Segway or take your bikes. Have fun!

The house was lovely and was equipped with everything we needed to make sure we had a great time.

The off road parking is a bonus.

We loved Quarry End, it was a home from home and was in a great location, with fantastic access to all the amenities.

Janet was the perfect host and we’d definitely recommend this accommodation.

Great location.

Central to the town yet quite and private.

Wow!

What a wonderful place to stay. Great base for exploring, and so convenient with on site parking and a spacious bike shed. It was less than 1 minute’s walk away from Bowness centre and only a few minutes to the lake front, yet the courtyard garden is such a peaceful, sheltered spot to relax. The standard of the accommodation deserves its 5 star rating… modern, spotless and airy - a very comfortable place to stay. A very well equipped kitchen made self catering a breeze - whether you’re making sandwiches to go or a full blown evening meal. Our host, Janet, was friendly and helpful - on hand for any questions and very knowledgeable about the local area. One of our party is a coeliac and she even went to the trouble of providing some gluten free treats for us on arrival which were very welcomed! The whole place was absolutely spotless, and the extra measures Janet is taking at this time including a complete clean between guests by using an antiviral misting process (the same as used in hospitals and ambulances) gave us extra confidence. I would thoroughly recommend this as a great place to stay in the Lake District.

What a find, we have used Sykes 4 times now and we would say this has been the best property yet.

Our host Janet was most welcoming, and the small touches of cake and milk was most welcome. This is a gem of a place centrally located a stones throw away from the shops and attractions yet in a quiet area. It comes with the all important parking spaces which are a must in the lakes. We would thoroughly recommend this place and would would definitely go back.

Fantastic week away in the Lakes and our first stay in this lovely property.

We have been to Bowness many times before over the last 10 years and stayed in a range of different types of accommodation (caravan, lodge, hotel, cottage etc.). Quarry End could not have been in a better location as it was only a 5 minute walk into the heart of Bowness. The property interior was modern and has been maintained to a very high standard. Janet greeted us on arrival even though we did not get to the property until quite late on the Friday. The photos in the brochure certainly do the property justice and we had a really comfortable stay for the week that we were there. We will certainly come back to Quarry End again as it was perfect for the 3 of us and priced fair for the quality of the property, especially when considering how close it is to the town centre.

This property knocked the socks of any property we have stayed in previously , very spacious,full equipped kitchen,comfiest bed we ever slept in,janet was a lovely host welcoming us warmly an leavng us milk cakes an biscuits was a nice touch,this is in an ideal location for the lake, shops an food,would definitely recommend booking here, and we would definitely rebook here

Beautiful house very modern clean and spacious.

It's tucked away behind Bowness shops and restaurants and a 2 min walk to the centre and 5 mins to the lake. Janet the owner kindly left milk cakes biscuits tea and coffee. The amenities are well equipped and a high standard.There is a courtyard with Table chairs and Sun lounges. Highly recommended.

This accomadation was first class with everything you could want, the best holiday home we have stayed in.

Janet is a lovely lady friendly and welcoming, we would definitely stay here again.

The accommodation was exceptional.

It had everything you would need and was the best holiday home we have stayed in. It was close to the town but still in a quiet corner. Having off road parking was great as we did not have to find somewhere to park when we came back at the end of the day.

We enjoyed this beautiful accommodation total perfection and quality through out.

Positioned in the centre of Bowness two minutes from all the lovely shops and restaurants, you will not be disappointed. Flowers and cakes on arrival, a lovely personal touch thank you Janet. We will have no problem in recommending this beautiful accommodation to all family and friends and hope to return very soon.

This holiday property is one pf the best we have stayed at, it is extremely new and very modern if it had a swimming pool it would be like a 5 star hotel.

The lady owner was charming and could not do more for us to make us feel at home and comfortable.

One of the best places I have ever stayed.

Location is spot on and the house is basically perfect.

We were one of the first set of guests to stay in the newly built Quarry End property.

Can't recommend this highly enough, and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The home had enough parking for our two cars which is a rarity right in the centre of Bowness. It was extremely well equipped with everything you would need for a few days and even longer, and the fresh cakes, biscuits and array of teas, coffees and hot chocolates was a lovely touch. Being new, everything has been built and decorated to a very high standard and the house had all the mod cons. The owner was very helpful too when I had a question before arriving and was on hand if needed.

Clean modern property.

Ideally situated with good parking facilities. Would not hesitate to recommend to friends and family. Hope to visit again in the future

The accommodation is first class , the location is ideal to access the main facilities in Bowness and travel throughout the Lake District .

I would not hesitate to recommend the property to others .

Quarry End is a little gem!

The house is impeccable and the landlord has thought of everything you need. Location is brilliant, off the main high street so very peaceful, but two minutes walking distance to local shops,restaurants and bars. We had a very relaxing stay and would highly recommend this lovely rental property to everyone. Even cakes on arrival!! Fab!!!

The cottage was extremely bright, airy and comfortable, very well equipped and finished to a high standard.

Having dedicated parking spaces was a real bonus and the outside private courtyard was a sub trap. We had a great holiday there and will certainly return. Would highly recommend to others.

We had a brilliant holiday in this property that was a real home from home.

The owner had thoughtfully left milk, a selection of tea, coffee, hot chocolate and cakes(!) for our arrival (very much like you would find in a hotel). Although the pictures of the property on the website showed that it was very modern and new, we still expected there to be a catch - there wasn't. The property was perfectly located (1 minute from Bowness high street via a secret path), yet tucked away from the hustle and bustle. There is no view, but you can find those every day of the week just outside your door with a little effort. There was a great attention to detail in the property, it was tastefully decorated and furnished to a high specification, there was plenty of storage (including a large sunny boot room as you came in to store all your walking/outdoor gear) , the kitchen had everything you could possibly need(there were even utensils for baking, if that is what you like to do to relax!), and there was a handy utility room that boasted a heated towel rail. We loved the kitchen area which had a large island with a lowered section that 4 could sit at to eat, which we liked, even though there was also a proper dining table and chairs too! There was sufficient seating for 4 in the lounge(which we always find an issue with 2 older children). The bathroom had a small bath but an amazing, large waterfall(?) shower that is not pictured. We were lucky enough to have wall to wall sunshine when we visited, but had the weather been worse, this property would have been the perfect bolthole. The owner was lovely and happy to help with any issues of which there was only one (we couldn't get the brand new washing machine to work, but we then realised the water had not been turned on, as we were the first to use it!). We would thoroughly recommend this property and will stay there again if our plans to get a puppy fall through.

A great property in a great location!
