“Property was very well furnished and excellent for two people and a dog.”
Loved the welcome pack which was a nice surprise.
The bathroom could use a toilet brush and small bin to make it perfect.
Could also use a cafetière in the kitchen as some like to use ground coffee.
Had some issue with the Wi-Fi buffering but I think that’s a local service issue.
Will look to stay again one day and will certainly recommend to others.
Thank you for you kind comments, it's our first season so it's gratefully received.
Thanks also for the recommendations we will provide those suggested items straight away.
I hope the fibre line being installed the week of your stay improves the wifi too.
Glad you enjoyed your stay, hope to see you again soon. Property Owner

The property
Settled at the heart of Windermere, a popular tourist destination in the Lake District lies the stunning, ground-floor apartment of The Sunflower. With an enclosed furnished courtyard, immaculate interiors, and a superb location close to nearby amenities and the eponymous Lake Windermere, this wonderful holiday property welcomes a couple seeking a refreshing, self-catered escape in the beautiful county of Cumbria. Park up roadside next to your new abode, and step inside to discover a collection of well-appointed living spaces. An open-plan living area comprising a fully-equipped kitchen invites you and your loved one to whip up a delicious, home-cooked dinner that you can savour at the breakfast bar. Alternatively, head outside with your meals and a glass of your favourite tipple to enjoy the ultimate alfresco experience as the sun shines overhead. In the evening, settle down for a film marathon in the sitting area, where you can kick back and relax on the plush blue sofa as the day rolls into night. When sleep finally calls, be sure to refresh with a rejuvenating shower before you settle down for a well-earned rest in the sumptuous king-size bedroom. If you can tear yourself from your peaceful new lodgings, head out on foot to discover what your local area has to offer. A brief stroll will bring you to Heathwaite’s convenience store, where you can stock up on essentials, whilst a hearty pub lunch can be had at the Brookside Inn. In town, you’ll find a range of things to do and see, whether that’s snapping shots of The Baddeley Clock Tower, enjoying exhibits at The World of Beatrix Potter Attraction, or coasting along the crisp waters of Lake Windermere with the Windermere Jetty Museum. Further afield, head by car along the Lake to Ambleside, a lakeside setting housing the noteworthy attractions the Ambleside Roman Fort, the outstanding Stagshaw Gardens, as well as the breathtaking Stock Ghyll Force waterfall. Whatever you get up to during your next stay in Cumbria, do it from the base of The Sunflower.
Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £200.
