Beautiful few days The boathouse provided so many little extras which were very much appreciated. Fresh flowers with basics such as bread , milk and chocolates left on our arrival. Lovely thought. Will be back again.

An amazing property with a fantastic view. Easy to access and walking distance to Bowness and a short drive to Windermere and Ambleside. The apartment was very clean and had the amenities that you need for a pleasant stay. Great to have the view so you feel like you’re on holiday even if the weather isn’t great.
