Self Catering in Cumbria - Bowness-on-Windermere

Little brook
We stayed here for a long weekend Monday to Friday. First impressions is we loved the homley feel of the cottage and the extra items there that made our stay easier (washing machine, iron etc) there were a few issues with the house like the standing mirror in the bedroom doesn?t stay in a fixed position and the garden area could have a lot more done to it so it could be enjoyed more but it didn?t ruin our holiday. The location is perfect as it's walking distance from shops, pub, water front and couldn?t asked for a better position. Unfortunately we didn?t managed to get a parking permit due to our own fault but it was £15 for a weekends parking just slightly up the road. The parking was a slight issue as the cottage is directly on a single track road so loading/unloading has to be done double time and as we stayed over in June it was very hot so slept with the windows open and the noise was loud as lots of bands playing but as expected due to location. Would recommend and would stay again

Sch?nes. haustierfreundliches H?uschen im Herzen von Bowness
Bowes on Windemere ist ein idealer Standort um den S?den des Lake District zu erkunden. Es gibt Unmengen von Gesch?ften, Cafes und Pubs. Gl?cklicherweise gibt es f?r 20 Pfd Pfand einen Parkausweis f?r den nahe gelegenen Parkplatz, denn in der Stadt wimmelt es von Tagesausfl?glern. Mit diesem Parkausweis kann man auch in anderen Orten frei parken. Auf der gleichen Stra?e sind auch 2 Pubs, die am Wochenende Life-Musik hatten und dazu die Fenster ?ffneten, da gab dann die gute Nachtmusik gratis. Wochentags war es aber ruhig. Die K?che ist gro? und gut ausgestattet. Die Dusche ist sehr modern und komfortabel.

Pretty but shabby
This cottage is one of the nicest places you could stay at for a rental property. It is in the best location for all the restaurants and bars. But it left a lot to be desired about its cleanliness it looks like it had not had a good clean in a long time the throws on the furniture were dirty and thread bare.

disaster
Great location, very modern interior. Cream couch, carpets, white rug, very stained and grubby, could do with a good clean, chiped crockery. Lots of attention from tourists taking photos outside window, so no privacy. Expected noise on night due to location but holiday is being spoilt by the constant blasting of music from the white house hotel, they have speakers on outside walls, have asked them several times to turn it down but it creeps up again, so no peace. Have had quieter holidays in blackpool. 3 days to go and cant wait to get home.

Cosy, comfortable and centrally located stay
Well situated cottage. No immediate parking but permit given by cottage holiday company allowed us to park in nearby car park (2 mins walk). The cottage was warm and clean and had almost everything you'd need. It is close to pubs but if you're not usually in bed before 11:00-11:30,it's not really an issue. Back bedroom is a lot quieter than front one. Would recommend it as a good location to tour the lakes. Only 2 small requests. 1. Fix the guttering above the front door as it creates a waterfall directly above the door. 2. Nowhere to hang things up in the back bedroom at the moment. Can I suggest hooks on the back of the doors ?
