Very nice apartment right in the centre, everything you need for a self catering break and also close to many restaurants. It is up 2 flights of stairs so maybe not for you if you struggle with stairs. The only problem is parking on the website it says parking space but there’s only 3 spaces for the block and it is first come basis. Other than that would recommend.

Excellent apartment! It's in an extremely central location and an excellent base to explore the Lake District! Functional host (with some very generic responses) Parking is excellent! Just park anywhere that says 'residence parking' because it's not clear in any of the literature or replies from the 'host'. But don't let that detract from an excellent property! As a family of 4 we had an excellent stay!

The location of the apartment was perfect, right in the centre. It had all we needed. Parking was confusing so I called a few times the agents were lovely but unsure as they were not local, I. The end we spoke to two other holiday makers who had asked around - you park in any place that says resident parking only and there is a residents parking lot on the site with a barrier in front which is open in the day. These instructions were in the welcome pack in the apartment :). The apartment was lovely on the surface it was clean but could do with a deeper clean . Ive mesaged separately to the company. Didnt spoil our stay.
