“We were very pleased with this property and it’s location as it was situated in the middle of Windermere 50yds from the Main Street of shops and restaurants .”

The provided parking was a real plus as parking in this area is limited .The relatively level walking to local facilities was a bonus as we had an elderly relative with us.The property itself had been refurbished to a high standard and included a fully equipped kitchen and was made really homely in its decor.Defiantly will visit again

“No16 was ideally located on a side street in Windermere.”

The main st was at the bottom of the road, but it was very quiet. A 20 minute walk down to Bowness-on-Windermere. Parking space fits a medium family size car. The house has good facilities, though just one shower. This didn’t cause us a problem though. Washing machine & tumble drier in an outhouse, just steps from the backdoor. Beds very comfortable, tv in all bedrooms and living room. Supplied with 2 keys which is handy when you’re with teenagers. Nice welcome pack of jams & fudge on our arrival. Owner super helpful.

Mr Devine February 2020

“Fantastic house for us to spend a few days away in a lovely part of the country.”

Our host Mrs Davis was fantastic with our requests and queries prior to our arrival. The house we stayed in was in a great location for all the local amenities in Windermere and local bus services to the other towns and areas.

Dr Crossley January 2020

“Loved the location of the property.”

The property was very clean and cosy, and the addition of the games room was fantastic. Could not have asked for a better property and will definitely be coming back.

Miss Sheldon January 2020

“The location of this property could not have been better - right in the centre of the gorgeous shops & restaurants in Windermere.”

The house was beautiful and finished to a high spec. It was clean, warm & a pleasure to stay in. Beds were super comfy & bed linen felt very luxurious. Plenty of towels provided, good Wi-Fi signal & the lovely addition of a welcome basket. Parking for our one car was easy, and the owner Rania was very helpful and responsive on text. I literally have nothing negative to say or suggestions to improve - it was a truly beautiful house.

“Perfect location in Windermere, 30 seconds and you are on the Main Street with all the amenities at hand.”

Parking the car was a bit tight but a total bonus of not having to find somewhere to park. The accommodation had everything you require for a stay and a lovely touch of welcome pack.

“We had a fantastic time at the cottage.”

In terms of location it was ideal and on the doorstep of all the shops, restaurants and bars. The house itself was beautiful with everything you needed, this trip was with the girls but I will definitely be returning with my family.

“Great Location in Center of Windermere”

This is a fabulous cottage with plenty of room and car park at front of the house (plus additional parking on street with permit for 1 additional car). It is a hop and skip away from shops, restaurants, butcher, supermarket. Windermere train is within walking distance. The cottage is equipped for cooking and laundry. The owner is very responsive and helpful. It has 2 renovated and modern bathroom. Lots of closet and drawers for clothes if you are having a long stay. There are guest pass for nearby health club where there is a pool. We did not have time to go but is a nice plus. It is a nice 20-30mins walk to the lakes. Would recommend leaving your car at the cottage and just have a nice stroll to the lakes as it is difficult to find car park. This was a perfect location for us to explore different parts of the lake district as Windermere is quite centrally located.

“Superb property and great value for money”

Loved this Cottage, (No16) When we arrived we had a complimentary gift of jams a lovely gesture we thought. It was like a tardis inside, the bathroom & shower room both had toilets which was a bonus for 6 of us staying there. had a parking permit for 1 car as only one space for a car wasn't too bad to get a space from Sunday had 5 roads to park but most where taken on the Saturday, the owner let us park at the back of the property. Mrs Davies was extremely helpful. We also had a pass to the spa hotel used the swimming pool there & you didn't need to take towels. Quite a few pubs, restaurants, shops & supermarkets close by but quite a walk to the lake parking was a nightmare by the lake. I would definitely recommend this Cottage to anyone.

“Felt like home.”

We love this cottage. It is ideally situated to visit the Lake District area to its fullest. The convenience of being in Windermere makes it ideal for shops, restaurants, bars and cafés. This cottage is immaculate. It is like a tardis - there is so much room. The decor is modern and neutral which I like. The two bathrooms are beautiful as are the three bedrooms and the beds are soooooo comfortable. It is a very quiet street - my only bugbear is that a car parked opposite our driveway on double yellow lines on numerous occasions which made it difficult to get in and out of our space without lots of effort ! We love 'The Prince of India' and 'The Little chippy'. We will definitely be back - don't hesitate in booking this cottage.

“Excellent”

Excellent location literally a stroll away from all the facilities you need but very quiet at the same time. The Cottage was decorated to a high standard and we were very pleased with kitchen bathroom facilities and bedrooms were comfortable. The only small suggestion we would make is to include a of folding chairs for use in the lounge as it was a little tight on sofa space for 6 people. We had a lovely break. thank you

“Lovely family break”

We visited No 16 with our daughter, her husband, baby and toddler who had travelled from Orkney. We had come from near Bath,so everyone was tired. We arrived to lovely welcome pack, a warm house and our host visited to make sure we had all the information we needed, which was very considerate. The house was great for our 2 year old grandson who was safe to run around downstairs. The town cente was seconds away, which was useful when we needed milk etc at the last minute but our house was nice and quiet. Even out of season there was loads to do and we would definitely stay there again.

“Amazing Christmas Break”

A truly memorable Christmas break in this superb cottage. Location - fantasic, walking distance to everything . The house itself is full of charm, decorated beautifully, and has everything you could possible need for a berak. We made christmas dinner here and had 6 of us round the table comfortably. We used the washing machine , DVD player, and bbq on boxing day and all to a high quality standard . Beds are soft and comfy, and a great shower! We used the facilities at the spa/gym which was included in the rental package and was a real nice touch to our wonderful stay! The swimming pool here looks on to the lakes and is def worth exploring . The owner could not have been more helpful to our requests, and was easily available at all times. I have recommended the accomodation to family and friends , and will def be back .

“Simply The Greatest Holiday Rental in the Lakes”

This house in the centre of Bowness,Windermere is amazing, superbly decorated and complete with all the utensils you would expect of a luxury holiday rental. Being in the centre parking is at a premium but we found the space at the front and then the parking permit for the surrounding streets perfect. The village is quaint and full of interesting and quality products. If you are going to the lakes look no further, book now!!!
