We had a fabulous stay at Briarwood. The apartment was a real home from home. It was immaculate and cosy with all the facilities you could possibly need. It is located just a 5 minute walk from beautiful Bowness, so there is immediate access to all the amenities whilst being just off the main stretch for a delightful and peaceful holiday. What a perfect place to spend Christmas! Would recommend to anyone!

The accommodation was ideal and Bownes is a lovely place to base for walking and cycling. On-site parking was an added bonus and the walk to town is easy.
