Great location
While it was a great location. The lack of parking at the property was disappointing as other units in the complex had parking but none for our unit.There was no sound proofing from the unit above.As we were there for a week a washing machine would have been useful- no extra towels or linen availble.

Cute apartment
The apartment is very small but nicely decorated and clean.
The walls are thin so you can hear everything from the neighbours!
The apartment is centrally located for easy access to Windermere but there is no parking at the property. The nearest all day parking is a 10 min walk away and cost £20 for 3 days, which as car parks go is quite reasonable.
Stay was amazing loved every minute .
Lost key code when we first arrived called VRBO
They just were not interested in helping told me the would call back didn’t happen luckily found code or we would have still been waiting

Incredibly cheeky checkout process
Considering you can check in until 16:00 and your expected to check out at 10:00 (both of which are very un generous) you are expected to empty all your own bins and strip the bedding

Central location fully equipped
Only one problem main bedroom light not working
Only a very dim lamp struggled to put make up on and do hair after mid afternoon
Contacted agent straight after we got in to see if someone could come out and replace it NO JOY
