Snaptrip says

Guests are generally impressed with the Stone Cross Mansion, particularly praising its renovation, luxurious vibe, and historical charm. The property's location in Ulverston is appreciated for its proximity to shops and attractions. The apartment's cleanliness and comfort, especially the mattress, receive positive remarks. The terrace and observatory are standout features, offering spectacular views and a unique experience.

Guests that stayed at this property said

The apartment is consistently described as clean and well-maintained, with only a minor mention of a mess left in the oven by previous occupants, which was quickly addressed.

The location is highly praised for its impressive surroundings and convenience to shops and tourist attractions, making it a prime area in Ulverston.

The comfort of the apartment is well-regarded, especially the bed. However, there is a mention of a humming noise from the boiler and personal preference regarding mattress softness.

Facilities are generally good, with a few issues noted such as Wi-Fi signal problems, a non-functional coffee maker, and stiff windows. The lack of television signal and difficulty with the windows are concerns for some guests.

While the reviews reflect a positive experience with the apartment's arrangement and amenities, there is no specific mention of gifts or special thoughtful touches that would warrant a score in this category.

    We loved the apartment and were blown away by the quality of fittings and furnishings. The observatory (on our one clear night) was amazing, we imagine it is superb in the warmer clearer months. The mansion is beautiful, the hall breathtaking and we all enjoyed playing pool and table football. We hope to return again in the future.

  • Lou

    We loved it, so well equipped and in a beautiful location. We do however have some feedback on the ladybird infestation. We hoovered them up every day but our only concern was if the plug in insect repellants were safe with the baby. We googled it and they are but maybe mention before people arrive? And the mattresses are very soft but that’s just personal preference. This is still one of the best places we have ever stayed and we will be back!

  • Andrew

    Big thank you to Mike and April for making the stay warm and welcoming, Christmas decorations were lush. We will be back, beautiful.
