“A very well located apartment with excellent access to the Lake District.”

It is very well equipped and provides a great base for exploring both locally and beyond. We were a party of five adults and found the seating arrangements for both eating and watching the TV tight; it would be best suited in our opinion for groups of four or less. We enjoyed our week in the Lakes, with so many interesting places to visit with such a dramatic landscape. We would highly recommend National Trust membership as car parking across the Lakes is expensive and many are owned by the Trust.

“We had a wonderful stay and the property was very, new, comfortable and clean.”

The kitchen was well equipped and sofas were comfy. Ideal accommodation and was perfect location to explore. The property owners were quick to change timing of hot water on our request as we are ealy risers. On leaving the property my nephew who was on his way back to Germany forgot his ipad and the property owners were more than helpful to give access to the property to retrieve after departure. We woukd definitely stay at the property again.

“Stayed the week at rivers edge near Newby bridge Lake District and what a fantastic holiday experience it was.”

The apartment was over two floors with kitchen and living room on the ground floor and a handy toilet and sink also in the hall as you come in through the front door. The living room was fantastically equipped with top brand equipment throughout with lg targe screen tv and Bosch kitchen appliances which for me was a great help as I have the same type at home . I noted that there was a washing machine and dish washer but I didn’t use these as I was on my own and found it easy to wash and dry as I went in the superb double sink with pull out tap that was a great feature to help clean the odd plate and cups ect. The corner settee was wonderfully comfortable and well made with loads of scatter cushions and warm throws to snuggle under for that cosy feeling while watching a movie on the tv. Here again the owners have thought about their customers by fitting the tv with a chromecast device so casting Netflix and Amazon ect was as easy as tapping the cast tab on my mobile phone. Such a great feature to have so no need for cables and connectors to try linking your phone to the tv as we have all tried before. Upstairs the great experience continues with lovely clean (looked brand new) carpeting to the stairs landings and bedrooms with bathrooms and en-suite all tiled on walls and floors. Bathrooms were well equipped with cabinets for toothpaste/shower gels ect and also shaver sockets hidden away inside to keep that uncluttered look near the sinks. Fantastic waterfall showers were a lovely way to get ready for the day ahead and we’re a very nice touch to add to the lovely bathrooms. Bedrooms were plush and relaxing with bedside lights and dressing tables all adding to the sumptuous feel of the rooms . Nice tv on main bedroom wall opposite the bed a great touch for that lazy morning watching the news ect. The bed was super comfortable and sheets and pillows were spotlessly clean and soft and extra pillows available with pillowcases fitted in the wardrobe. Loads of hanging space with hangers available. in the downstairs toilet a hoover and ironing board and also a mop and bucket. Hoover especially good to catch those bread crumbs when making toast or sandwiches on the kitchen worktop and easy to use on the nice wooden floors with rugs at settee and worktop area. Outside the river passes by the bedrooms on the back of the apartment and the main window in living room with nice landscaped views from master and twin bedrooms from balcony in each room. Lastly two car parking spaces allotted for you to park so no worries with larger groups using two cars or if you worried about your new car being marked by a neighbouring car door as you could park with loads of room either side. In short a fantastic holiday in a fantastic holiday apartment where the utmost care has been lavished on the property to give the holidaymaker a holiday to remember. Thank you so very much for all your hard work you have done to this stunning apartment. Can’t wait to come back to rivers edge again . Mr A Smith.

“A beautiful property presented to a very high standard - the furnishing and finishes are exceptional and has inspired me to update my home!”

It’s in a fantastic location - the view of the river is spectacular! It’s an easy car drive to Windermere, Bowness and Ambleside so ideal for us to take our baby granddaughter without a long journey in the car. We celebrated my daughters 30th birthday and the owner left a complimentary smash cake, wine and beer which I thought was so thoughtful! I would highly recommend this property and we will definitely be going back!

The property

Rivers Edge is a contemporary apartment located next to a rushing river in the picturesque village of Backbarrow, which is part of the Lake District National Park. This duplex apartment is great for a family or six friends seeking a break to the Lakes, with its contemporary décor and terraces to take in the scenery. When you arrive, look for your designated parking spot before visiting the lush common garden. Be welcomed into the open-plan living area, which features a bright and spacious layout as well as a matte charcoal grey kitchen with an electric oven, halogen stove, and microwave for culinary delights. Use the washer/dryer and dishwasher for a hassle-free clean, and you won't have to worry about making a mess when you're cooking! When dinner is ready, settle down at the dining table to dig into delectable dishes, and celebrate your getaway with a bottle of bubbles. Unwind on the grey corner sofa and additional new chair, in front of the wall-mounted TV after dinner; snuggle up with your loved ones with popcorn and have a movie night-in. Open the patio door to reveal a secluded decking area with table and chairs, where you can savour a hot chocolate as the sky grows darker and the stars appear. As your eyes begin to glaze over, travel upstairs to a family bathroom where you can indulge in a blissful soak in the tub or a quick rinse in the overhead shower. Choose from a king-size room with its own en-suite or the double room, both with balconies to take in the landscape or take rest in the cosy twin room. Why not start your day with a pleasant walk along the river before rustling up a home-cooked breakfast with the kitchen's appliances? Explore the nearby attractions, such as Lakeside and Haverthwaite Railway, Lakeland Motor Museum, and Cliffhanger Rooms, where you can travel back in time on a traditional coach, learn about historical cars, and put your escape skills to the test. Visit the Predator Experience to get up close and personal with wolves, the Lakes Aquarium to marvel at aquatic life, or Hay Bridge Nature Reserve to take a calm stroll. Visit the vast town of Bowness-on-Windermere to relive your youth at The World of Beatrix Potter or put your golf skills to the test at a fantastic golf course before setting out on an adventure around the beautiful Lake Windermere. Bring your favourite people to Rivers Edge for a much-needed vacation.

About the location

NEWBY BRIDGE

Bowness-on-Windermere 8 miles.

The small village of Newby Bridge takes its name from the five arched stone bridge built in 1651 over the River Leven. The famous Furness Railway, one of Britain's oldest working standard gauge steam railways, runs between Haverthwaite and Newby Bridge. Visit the Lakeside Hotels and enjoy magnificent views across Windermere and the surrounding fells, or enjoy the Aquarium of the Lakes, where the naturally themed habitats, bring the history of the Lakes vividly to life. Bowness-on-Windermere provides a lovely day out, plus the picturesque village of Hawkshead still retains the charm and character that so endeared it to its most famous residents - William Wordsworth and Beatrix Potter, and admire the views at nearby Gummer's How.
