Has log burner but no fuel provided. Difficulty accessing wi fi code via e-mail with no wi-fi! Tv is via Fire stick which was lost when internet was lost. However this and one or two other issues were dealt promptly by the maintenance people. Excellent comms with Graythwaite Estate.

Location is beautiful and the apartment was warm. Several maintenance and housekeeping issues including thick cobwebs across the ceilings, large stain on the sofa, dirty bath mat, lights not working (bathroom mirror and oven hood) and no batteries in kitchen clock. Oven dials have worn away and are impossible to read, so cooking was challenging. A shame that nothing is provided for the fireplace - I would think it normal to provide matches and the first set of logs for guests, and we would have expected to buy any more than that. Similarly only 2 dishwasher tablets were provided which was disappointing as we didn't want to waste money buying an entire packet for 3 days. 4pm is too late to check in, especially as it was dark by 3.30 and there is no street lighting. Otherwise, we had a good stay and were glad to discover Beatrix Potter's village - but we would choose alternative accommodation in future.

Great space for children to play. Apartment was comfortable and had everything you'd need. Bathroom heating was on when we arrived, despite it being a heatwave! Also, it was a little stuffy as all the windows had been shut. Bathroom had some cobwebs and was a little tired, but overall we loved it and would stay again.
