Bowness on Windermere is one of the most popular Lakeland destinations and The Stable Nest ground floor studio apartment is just a short stroll from an excellent choice of shops, cafés and restaurants. Located in a particularly attractive stone building, the accommodation is part of a conversion of a 19th-century former stables. The Stable Nest offers all the benefits of a hotel room but with the added bonus of a fully equipped kitchen. It is perfect for self catering, but with so many attractions, pubs and restaurants on your doorstep, you’ll be far too busy enjoying yourself to bother cooking! With dedicated parking behind the building, you can leave your car without having to worry about traffic or parking charges.
A wealth of independent shops, boutiques, cafés and superb international cuisine restaurants are all found within a short stroll along with the attraction of Lake Windermere itself. For the more energetic visitor, rowing boats are available on the lake, or you can enjoy a leisurely steamer ride on the lake to see the stunning landscape. Why not wander up to Windermere town where there is a choice of shops and eateries, as well as a traditional cinema and The World of Beatrix Potter attraction? There are regular boat trips over to Ambleside and Lakeside, the latter of which is home to the Lakes Aquarium. From here you can also take a steam train along the Lakeside-Haverthwaite railway. The bus and railway stations give scope to travel further afield and explore the wider area. Walkers can enjoy access to a variety of walks from Bowness. Take a gentle stroll to the lake, or a more strenuous hike to the peaceful valley of Kentmere, the landscape and surroundings are second to none. Shop, pub and restaurant 100 yards.
The Stable Nest (ref UK1208) can be booked together with The Round Window (ref CC128207) and The Stable Loft (ref CC128239) to accommodate up to 6 guests.

Very small and cramped even for only one person, claustrophobic and dark too with only one window so high I needed to stand on sofa to see outside, skylights made me feel like I was in a well! Maybe ok for weekend breaks but not for longer, especially if weather not good - I was there for a week and got regularly drenched walking in rain just to get out! I would have preferred some outside space but it was a late booking so I took what I could get thinking the location would offset lack of space, unfortunately, due to very bad weather, it didn't. I'm not saying there was anything wrong with the accommodation as such, it was clean and had everything I needed, it just wasn't right for me.

We had an excellent stay at the Stables Nest. Great location within walking distance of all that Bowness has to offer. The accommodation was small but had everything we required.
