Guests say
Bowness Apartment in Windermere is highly praised for its prime location, spacious living area, and quality amenities including a sunny balcony, well-equipped kitchen, and top-notch beds and linen. Guests appreciate the added touch of Prosecco in the fridge, though some noted the living area could benefit from refreshed furnishings and attention to pet odours. The bustling tourist area means some noise is to be expected, but overall, the apartment offers a clean, comfortable stay with the convenience of parking.
The apartment is described as extremely clean by a reviewer, but there is a mention of pet smells in the living area, suggesting a slight deduction in cleanliness.
The location is consistently praised for being great and convenient for exploring the area, both by car and on foot, despite some traffic and pedestrian noise.
Comfort is highlighted with mentions of a roomy living area, sunny balcony, and excellent beds and linen, although the presence of thin walls and ambient noise slightly impacts the overall comfort.
Facilities are generally well-regarded, with a well-equipped kitchen and good technology. However, the need for updates to the carpet and sofa suggests room for improvement in maintenance.
While the Prosecco in the fridge is a thoughtful touch, there are not enough reviews mentioning similar gestures to accurately score this category. Please note that such gifts are not guaranteed.

Great location for exploring the area (via car)or easily walk into the town on foot.Roomy living area and sunny balcony. Great equipment in kitchen , tech and gadgets up to scratch and lovely shower. Excellent parking space, beds and linen top quality. Also extra points for Prosecco in fridge!Only negative is carpet and sofa pretty tired in living area and heavy pet smells in this area too.Be warned, this is a busy tourist area so lots of traffic and pedestrian noise (balcony is high in trees but over main road and entrance to Fallbarrow) also walls pretty thin, comes with the territory as long as you understand this it’s great.
