Guests that stayed at this property said
The property is consistently described as clean and well-maintained, with several reviews highlighting its tidiness. The presence of a dedicated cleaner and the provision of ample towels contribute to the high standards of cleanliness.
The location is highly regarded due to its proximity to the beach, local shops, and pubs, all within walking distance. The area is described as friendly and the property is conveniently situated for exploring the Lake District.
Guests find the beds comfortable and the central heating effective. However, some guests mention the need for blackout blinds and better quality bedding, which suggests room for improvement in ensuring a restful sleep for all visitors.
The property boasts modern facilities, including a well-stocked kitchen and comfortable lounge area. However, some reviews point out maintenance issues such as a leaky shower and the need for more kitchenware, which affects the score.
Guests are pleased with the thoughtful extras provided, such as welcome gifts of wine and chocolates. It's important to note that while these gifts are appreciated, they are a kind gesture and not a guaranteed amenity for every stay.
