That something special @
Pros:

From the initial message from the owners with a massive amount of information, to the front door, the inside aesthetics and the sheer size and amenities within the apparently. The place was better than staying in any hotel room or dated floral converted accommodation . The place just felt Special

Cons:

The place had 2 showers and both temperature controllers didn't work. One was too hot, one 2 cold. I informed the owners so they can get it fixed for the next people but I would have liked this to have been picked up before we arrived as one of the issues was very obvious .

Perfect location
Pros:

The apartment is in an excellent location in the center of Bowness. There are numerous cafes, restaurants and shops on the doorstep and Lake Windermere is a 5 minutes stroll. The apartment is very tastefully furnished with lovely big comfy beds and beautiful bathrooms.

Pros:

Good location, generally nice quiet apartment with well equipped kitchen. The beds were clean and comfortable. The theme and history of the place is interesting and made it a quirky place to stay

Cons:

The apartment seemed a bit tired. Bedrooms are quite dark, there are some things which need to be repaired or just maintained a bit better (I'll contact the host with the issues)

Gem of a find!
Pros:

Good refurbishment of an old bank with lots of nods to its past industry. Great location. I did sort private parking prior to my stay. So many luxury touches, particularly lighting. Cinema size tv. Easy entry.

Cons:

Could have had a bigger French press. That’s all.
