Bowness Central Reviews

Angela

Our stay was very pleasant and we had the best time away for my partners 50th birthday surprise. I treated my partner to a 5 day 4 nights stay here at Bowness Central. Our accommodation was just perfect. it was an absolutely beautiful stay many thanks we shall stay again very soon

Sheena

Perfect location although car was parked in public car park. All you need for a short stay was in the apartment and fittings to a very high standard. Possibly noisy in the warm weather with windows opening directly over main pedestrian street. No information provided in the apartment which was a shame, particularly for first time visitors to the area, so make sure you do your research before arrival.

Zahida

This property was in a perfect location. It was great to be so near Lake Windermere, local transport and local shops. We had a fantastic time here, and would loved to have stayed longer. All amenities were available and it was a really lovely experience.
