  Really nice place to stay.

  Right in the centre of everything from walking / driving distance. The apartment was clean and tidy upon arrival and instructions how to collect the keys from the apartment prior to arrival was very clear. The apartment has the basic things you need for your stay. To access the apartment you need to go up around 30 steps so if you have walking difficulty’s or mobility issues I would check this prior to booking. Salt , pepper , oil , hand soap , washing up liquid , cloths , tea towels and limited dishwasher tablets was also provided what we was unaware off. Also a welcome box with tea bags / coffee / biscuits / sugar / milk sticks was in the apartment kitchen , this was a unexpected nice touch. The allocated parking spot was available the whole time we arrived although upon check out there was a car blocking us in behind our car , but lucky we could get out from a tight squeeze down the other parking space next to it as there was not a car there. If there was we would have not been able to get out. The night before the same car was also blocking us in but by time we went out late afternoon it was gone so had no issue getting out. The only thing I would say and it has been mentioned on another review is maybe a welcome pack , as we was not sure where to put the rubbish and instructions on the Wi-Fi code and maybe how to use the hive and what to do with used towels / if we was required to strip the bedding etc. Overall though it was a lovely stay and would definitely recommend Windermere Crescent , brilliant for small family’s or a couple.

  First impressions were good, but sadly that’s where it ended.

  It would be a good idea to wash the bedding and towels in a non-bio, non-perfumed detergent as I spent my entire stay itching as soon as I got into bed, so didn’t sleep during my time there. The bedding also needs changing, when I stripped the bed upon departure as requested, there were many questionable stains on the duvet and mattress protector. The sofa and armchair also need replacing, as they’re old and now uncomfortable. This meant, there was no comfortable place for me to sit or sleep, which was far from ideal. The whole place needed a deep clean e.g. there was still curry split from the last occupant in the microwave and their hair in the bathroom. The flat is on the top floor, up 2 steep flights of stairs, so think about how much you bring with you. The lack of parking and the one way system is also something you should consider. Leave yourself a minimum of half an hour to walk back to your car and navigate this system on the day you’re checking out. Also, although the location is great in the day, who knew at night Kendal “comes to life.” From around 10pm-1am the Tesco Extra opposite becomes the hangout spot and there’s a lot of shouting, so pack earplugs! Also, pack an eye mask as the blinds don’t fit well either. There is no reception, only an emergency contact number. As none of the above constitutes an emergency, I had no one I could contact about these matters. Sadly this was not the restorative trip I’d hoped it would be.

  This apartment has an ideal layout and is furnished and decorated to a very high standard.

  The bed is extremely comfortable with quality bedding. The shower with a choice of heads, is powerful and the water hot. We liked the luxurious towels and the Miniml toiletries. Thank you for the treats. When booking, one of the items we requested in the search was parking. “Unallocated parking” is in the list of features on the website and is referred to in 2 reviews. This should read no parking available, Pay and Display car parks very close by, to avoid confusion. The only other point would be a small frying pan and baking tray would have been useful. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend this apartment for anyone wishing to explore Kendal and the surrounding area.

  Great property, very spacious and well equipped.

  There was plentiful hot water and modern central heating which was great for our February stay. Found the toilet fiddly to flush, it has to be pushed quite hard, so could imagine anyone with arthritic hands would struggle. Church bells close by seem to go off regularly and at random times but do stop overnight. We got used to it but some people might find it bothersome. Very well located close to shops/restaurants but still very peaceful overnight. Perfect hub for exploring the lakes, and bonus that the parking permit can also be used in some other locations. We had an excellent stay and would consider coming again. Thank you.

  This property is fantastic!

  It’s in an amazing location right in the heart of Windermere with amenities on your door step. Despite being so central it’s extremely quiet and the owners have clearly invested in new windows to minimise noise. The property is so clean and lovely decorated (nicely modernised with a twist of traditional features), it has everything you need. It is dog friendly and a great price. This property is on the top floor, as advertised, however, is up several flights of stairs, it’s worth assessing if you struggle walking. Overall, I can’t recommend this property enough and we look forward to visiting again.
