Windermere Central Reviews

Gina and Phil
This is in a perfect central location & we managed to park up a couple of streets away for the whole time we were there. Everything on your doorstep & bus station a short walk away. A bit noisy from the cafe downstairs but would stay again. Thankyou
Fantastic property great communication for check in and check out Location was perfect !
I found the bed very comfortable and the shower room excellent. The ovenhob and TV are ultra modern, so if you are hitech, you will no doubt love using them. I am not, so it was either eat out or the microwave. The bistro table is a small high table, so you have to clamber on to a high chair in order to eat a meal. The TV requires a wifi connection. The router is hidden behind the TV. I used my laptop, rather than spend time trying to understand the TV. There is an attic above the flat, which seems to be used as a storage room perhaps by Mo's Cafe next door. If you are inside during daytime. you will hear the thud of heavy objects being dropped.
The apartment was in a good location, just a short walk from the train station. It was quite noisy at times as obviously its on a main road and above shops. It was nicely furnished, comfortable bed and a good shower. My only suggestion would be more kitchenware as the pans were quite old and unusable,
Victoria
Loved our stay in Windermere! Apartment is in a great location, handy for shops, bars, and restaurants. Parking was easy. It was everything that we wanted.
Lovely stay in convenient location
Great location
Michael
Ideally situated right in the heart of Windermere, lovely and clean, with everything needed for a holiday for two in the lakes, very convenient for shops, pubs, restaurants and take always, plus very close to railway station and bus depot, and twenty minute walk to Bowness and lake Windermere.
Philip
There were no instructions on the use of the electric Cooker or the Microwave. We notified your office on Monday regarding the above, but we were disappointed not to receive an acknowledgement from you or the owners. We also felt that a heavier curtain in the bedroom would provide more comfort.
