“The cushion on one of the chairs was very saggy, so wasn’t that comfortable to sit on, really needs to be replaced.”

Fridge wasn’t that clean inside, so we gave it a clean. A few cobwebs around the place. The hoover didn’t pick up dirt, seemed to be nearly out of charge but there didn’t seem to be a charging unit for it. Another baking tray and a measuring jug would have been nice to have. We were happy with the accommodation and the view from the window was amazing.

“The photos on the advertising do not reflect the actual cramped size of the apartment.”

If the weather had been poor we would have been stuck in a very small space without even a settee and the easy chairs provided were not at all comfortable. There was no space even for a chair to put clothes on in the bedroom. Very disappointing if we'd had to stay inside for the holiday. There was no dishwasher which had been listed as available. Using the hot shower set off the smoke alarms in the whole building so everyone staying in all the apartments at the time had to evacuate the premises until someone arrived from the company to check the property. There were crumbs on the kitchen bench area which should have been sanitzed before we arrived so we had to sanitize everything before using it for our own safety. The cost for this very small apartment was equivalent to our usual stay in a two bedroom chalet which has a lot more space.

Ambleside 5 miles; Windermere 9 miles; Keswick 13 miles.

Situated in the heart of the Lake District National Park is the lovely village of Grasmere, probably best known as the home of William Wordsworth, a place he once described as "The most loveliest spot that man hath found". Any visit to Grasmere needs to include The Grasmere Gingerbread shop, where the Wilson family have been making gingerbread for over 60 years. Also in the village are a number of shops, pubs, a church which dates back to the 13th century and Grasmere Lake, plus Grasmere Sports takes place every August, where you can watch participants compete in a variety of sports, including Cumberland Wrestling. Just five miles away is the town of Ambleside and Lake Winderemere where you will find shops, pubs, restaurants and the 17th century Bridge House, which is one of the most photographed buildings in the Lake District. Cruises, boat trips and watersports can all be enjoyed on Lake Windermere and the towns of Windermere and Keswick are also within driving distance. Grasmere is a wonderful base for your Lake District retreat.
