Claife Heights Reviews

Ideal location for travel links, shopping and walks.
Alison
We have stayed in this block previously so nice to return. Ideally located for a stroll into Windermere itself and about 20 minutes to walk down to the lake. Added bonus was our own parking bay. Would highly recommend and will definately return
Beautiful property with wonderful views, really enjoyed my stay. Good public transport links. Thanks so much, hope to return again sometime.
Barbara
Nice modern flat, well equipped and comfortable. Good location in Windermere and having the allocated spot in the car park was great.
Michael
The location was good , near pubs , restaurants and shops nice walk into Bowness or catch the local buses . The apartment was nice and had everything you needed , very comfy beds and plenty of hot water but needed some TLC outside
We had a fabulous week at your lovely apartment and will definitely be booking it again in the near future thank you
Hilary
Clean modern flat, with everything you need. Good location, very accessible to trainbus station. Bonus having a parking spot. Good views. Unfortunately both bedrooms face the main road, which is not publicised in the listings. Without double glazing, it is very noisy with traffic from early morning through till late at night. Definitely not for light sleepers. Nor does it have blackout blinds, which are needed for the street lights that shine through the unlined curtains. The bath drains need to be unblocked to allow the shower water to drain away quickly.
The flat was lovely and spacious and in the perfect location, near all the local shops, cafes, and train station. We loved having the balcony and enjoyed drinks in the evening sunshine! A lovely stay, we cant wait to come back
The accommodation is really great. Nicely located near the train and busstation and the town centre. At arrival it was difficult to find. We had to phone to LakeLovers. The problem appeared to be that we came by train and didnot look into the instruction for cardrivers. The address only is not enough.

Well located for Windermere and the lakes, the stairs way be a problem for those with limited mobility, but we didnt have a problem ourselves. Property is well equipped and comfortable, clean and with everything working. Special mention to Sykes who arranged our stay at 24 hours notice when our original booking was cancelled at the last minute.
A lovely flat that was perfect for our weekend in the Lake District. Email communications prior to arriving and the app meant the property was very easy to find and access.
Andrew
Lovely flat Close to railway station and shops. Parking space outside. Great base for a holiday in the Lake District
Christopher
Very nice apartment. really enjoyed our stay. Close to everything but quiet too, great position in the village.
Darren
The apartment was perfect. Clean, spacious, lovely views and 2 minutes walk to Windamere Town centre. We loved it.
We were very pleased with the position of Claire Heights. It was a lovely apartment and facilities were excellent. We would just like to point out one thing. Although there is a note in the main front door asking people to make sure the door is closed completely, but the last two days we were there this did not happen. The door needs to slammed to for this to happen so perhaps a better note might help.
Fantastic property in the perfect location for exploring the lakes. Lovely restaurants and shops on your doorstep also.
The apartment was spotless and every touch thought of. It was lovely and cosy and warm after a cold February walk. Great TV and wifi provided, ideal to catch up on those series. Walking distance to all amenities and train and bus station. So ideally located we didn't need to use our car for the duration of our stay. We had a great week and will look forward to returning. Thank you
Great apartment for a friends' get together. Very wellequipped kitchen for four people. It was lovely and warm which was very welcome after some bracing walks. We loved the fact that we could walk to the local pubs and restaurants having a great choice just 5 minutes from the apartment. Great for a walking or sightseeing base and you can use the bus to get further afield. Thank you so much, Beverley girls
Andrew
Lovely apartment with a nice balcony and view. The shower was fantastic with plenty of hot water. The television and WiFi were great. The kitchen and equipment were excellent. One allocated car parking space right outside the front door. The apartment was spotlessly clean and tidy.
