"We had a week at this beautiful apartment with sweeping views across Bowness towards Lake Windemere and on to the hills and mountains beyond."
Looking out over the view was a great way to start and end the day, and provided an instant weather update! The apartment was spotlessly clean, very well furnished and presented, and with a well resourced kitchen. It was a joy to stay here and provided a comfortable space to relax and unwind. We very much look forward to staying here again some time in the future.

"A lovely apartment, clean, well equipped and comfortable."
We really enjoyed are stay, great location to walk to shops/restaurants. Great to have private parking.
Couple of improvements would suggest are curtains in the bedroom. Additionally, I would personally rather have a washing machine/tumble dryer than a dishwasher. Especially if going hiking and staying for longer. Would benefit from a clothes airier to dry wet clothes.
Thank you for a lovely holiday. Hopefully can stay again in the near future and would highly recommend.
Hi Lauren, really glad that you enjoyed your stay and we hope to see you again soon. Interestingly we actually replaced a washer dryer with the dishwasher following mutiple guests feedback. Unfortunatley we cannot fit both - the typical stay is a week (or less) and guests who were using the kitchen (which we have equipped so people can properly self cater) frequently asked for a dishwasher so they could spend more time out and about and less time washing up! Ideally we would have both.

"Second stay in the Tethera."
We love this apartment! It is clean, spacious, comfortable and had everything we needed to enjoy the stay. Great views from the living room. Parking easy with space for a visitor if needed, and you can't beat the location in the middle of Bowness. Thanks to Sharon who was very helpful and gave us a call to let us know the apartment was ready earlier than expected - great service! Highly recommended - we will be back.

"Three quick negatives - no cafetiere, no washing machine (should possibly be flagged up more, absolutely not an issue for us however), and the flat was cold when we arrived."
This didn't give a good first impression, but once the heating was on it stayed warm and cosy all week. Those are little things though, overall we loved the flat. Great location, easy parking, lovely view of fells + a bit of Windermere from the dining table. The size of the flat is great, it's very well furnished, and it has a great shower - very important after a day's walking.
Hi David,
Glad you enjoyed your stay. Apologies for the heating not being up to temperature when you arrived - you were our first guests of the season - we have asked our housekeeper to ensure that it taken care of going forward and we are looking to install a Nest / Hive thermostat so we can check/do it remotely.
The washing machine is an interesting and fair point - we actually replaced it with a dishwasher (only space for one appliance) following previous guests feedback! The average stay is a week so we took the view that a dishwasher was the more convenient option. Glad you liked the shower - we are big walkers and our first job when we bought the apartment was to fit a new bathroom and hot water system!

"It was a really nice apartment and we would definitely stay there again."
However there were a couple of oversights by the cleaning staff. Firstly, the water in the bathroom sink was not emptying so I removed the plug and found a massive clump of hair and soap scum. Once this was cleared it emptied properly. The second thing was the half empty bottle of apple juice and the 4 week out of date bottle of milk in the fridge. This made me wonder how clean the kitchen was and as I have a germ phobia it led me to do a thorough clean. Also there were a lot of dirty crockery in the cupboards. Just think the cleaning staff need to be a bit more thorough.

"The apartment was very nicely furnished to a high standard."
It is a pity the second bedroom is small. It was very clean. The kitchen was equipped with all the necessary equipment apart from oven gloves. The information in the folder said press the blue booster button on the towel rail, we did several times but nothing happened. That was a pity as wet towels were a problem. The instructions for the key safe should be more explicit as we thought our flat was at the front of the building like the photo on the information
Ann Thompson
Hi Ann, thanks for your feedback. We have replaced the missing oven gloves (3rd time this year!) and have asked our housekeeper to ensure they are replaced if they go missing. We have checked the towel rail - it is working - we wonder if the previous guests inadvertently switched off the fuse switch (in entrance corridor) by mistake when using the adjacent plug socket. Again we have asked our housekeeper to check going forward. We hope you enjoyed your time in the Lakes.

"Gorgeous property, ideal for 2 adults and 2 children as 2nd bedroom is quite small."
Everywhere else very spacious, clean and modern though. Up a steep hill so no good for people who struggle with walking inclines but very central and only a very short walk into village (walk back seems longer!).
Great that there is easy parking and so much to do nearby. The views from the living/dining room were beautiful too.

"This was wonderful for us."
We loved the view, the large bedroom and the big living room.
My only suggestions would be:
1. The cleaner needs to go under the beds and settees where there was a coating of dust.
2. The kitchen bin is slightly broken and will only get worse.
We loved it.
Thanks.

Spotlessly clean with everything you need including well equipped kitchen and brilliant selection of walking books/maps.

The 9.30 exit from the property is too early. There is ample time to clean bearing in mind 5.00 pm arrival time. I appreciate it is a deep clean.
Thanks for your feedback. We hope you had a great time. Unfortunately the check in times are driven by acute staff shortages in the cleaning industry in the Lake District. These are being slowly addressed and we should be reverting to ‘normal’ from November.

"Sound transmission between ground floor apartment into Tethera not good."
Sound transmission from 2nd floor apartment into Tethera (1st floor) totally unacceptable. I do not believe there is any sound absorbing materials used in the floor / ceiling meaning that you could hear everything from the apartment above. When you then have noisy people in occupation it is unbearable and I mean unbearable! We therefore could not recommend this property due to the sound issue and would not return ourselves. The fixtures and fittings however were wonderful.

"Lovely apartment in central location."
It had everything we needed apart from a washing machine,if we had been staying longer than a week we would have struggled.
unhappy at 5pm entry from sykes impossible to find a way to get intouch with sykes to discuss.essentially lost first day of holiday and when we left we still had to strip all the beds etc so not sure why do much extra time is required.
Thanks for your feedback. We actually installed the dishwasher in response to customer feedback - unfortunately there is not room for both a washer dryer and a dishwasher. I understand your frustration but on balance we felt most guests would prefer the former. The check in times are driven by staff shortages in the cleaning company due to COVID. The times will revert to normal from November.
