    “Fantastic apartment.”

    3 good size double bedrooms. Very clean. Very high tech and all mod cons with Fantastic facilities in kitchen.although on TV in bedroom had front speaker cover missing but this wasn't a problem as we didn't use TV in bedroom. Very spacious. Small balcony very nice. The apartment is reached by out flights of stairs at least 3 flights. Great location steps down to the main road and straight into the heart of bowness. We thought it was a fantastic apartment apart from the stairs up to it .
