We were unable to stay there in December because of heavy snow and we were able to transfer our booking without any difficulty. We loved everything, the area, the comfortable accommodation and the visiting wildlife. We did struggle to lower the heating thermostat even after consulting the instructions, so it was very warm. Better than cold though. The welcome pack was also much appreciated. We must apologise for not removing our food from the fridge as we only realised it was missing when we got home.

The views and location spectacular. Bed super comfy and the shower was gorgeous. The only small negative is that the hoover had no suction at all and we even cleaned it out hoping it would help. So times when you may want to run hoover round quickly, we could not do. Other than that, a fabulous stay and we will be back.

This 1 bedroom property is dog friendly with a modern well equipped kitchen and en-suite. The bedroom has a lovely view across the lake and the lounge opens onto a decking area with seating overlooking the lake. Additional bonus is you are a member of the British Biological Association during your stay who provide a luxurious welcome hamper. Great base to walk to Hill Top and Wray Castle and a quick ferry ride to get to Bowness on Windermere to explore the shops and other walks.
