Liked: Room comfort, communication
Amazing views from the place and a very cosy little apartment for two maybe a little bit less clutter and wires around the house would’ve been nicer. There is no need for so many gadgets like sky box BT players CD players music hi-fi.

Liked: Check-in, communication, listing accuracy
Excellent location with a beautiful view from the property. Stayed very cool inside during a heatwave (but could be cold if not so hot outside!). The apartment itself has a good space and a full kitchen. However, there is quite a lot of clutter and lots of unnecessary electronic devices (such as multiple sky boxes, Alexas, wifis, entertainment systems etc). The apartment was clean enough but generally could do with a bit of updating and a clear out of the cupboards, under the bed etc. There is a friendly duck that visits for snacks! The estate has a small indoor pool and table tennis table which can be used. It is walking distance from lovely walks and Loughrigg Tarn which is perfect for a dip! The local pub is 5 mins walk and has good food and outdoor seating options.
