What guests are saying
We had a wonderful 3 nights at Wanswell at Lipwood house!
The building is lovely with plenty of parking, superbly situated just off the main street and NO ROAD NOISE whatsoever even sleeping with the windows open due to the heat. You can easily walk to all the pubs and restaurants, and Bowness is a short 20 min stroll down the road. Few points for the homeowners, nothing to detract from the stay but more observations we would fix - Toilet seat in main bathroom needs replacing, a cheap fix and not sure why this hasn't been done? Certain areas dusty, especially main bedroom, but easily overlooked by the cleaners and wasn't awful. There was a sign on the en-suite door to say to keep the door closed as the steam would set the fire alarm off, but the extractor fan wasn't working, so the room quickly became damp and smelly. Fix the fan or the fire alarm? "Pod" coffee machine in the kitchen but no pods provided, how are we supposed to know which ones it takes to buy from the shop? Pillows not the best, again a very cheap fix, but is personal preference and we would prefer down pillows at this level of cost. Overall a wonderful stay and we would definitely stay again, the above are just comments that we hope are helpful. Thanks!
A wonderful modern, comfortable and spacious apartment in a great location just a few minutes walk to Windemere town.
The beds are very comfortable. It’s an easy walk to Bowness on Windermere, which takes approx 20 to 30 minutes. Bowness has lots of shops and eating places. From Bowness you can take boat rides around the lake. We really enjoyed staying at the apartment.
Wansfell was perfect for our three day break in Windermere.
Very comfortable and spacious with lots of extras that made it very comfortable and relaxing. The location is a short walk into town. Excellent parking also meant parking was trouble free. I do have to say the stairs may not be suitable for anyone with mobility issues. Overall, excellent.
