“We returned to the Gallery after a few years break - prices had become a bit more than we were willing to pay.”

However it was great to be back and as warm and comfortable as before. A superb spot to visit the Central Lakes with convenient bus connections in various directions.

“Lovely stay again.”

This is our third visit to the Gallery. Perfect location for us - excellent walking from the door. Comfortable and cosy as always.

Grace July 2023

“Wonderful week stay with our little family at The Gallery.”

Perfect location and all the amenities within the apartment that you could possibly need. The new Smart TV was a fab addition too. Lovely touch with the chocolates and wine on arrival.

Daniel July 2023

“Fantastically situated and ideal for a couple or family.”

Well-equipped kitchen with everything you need for a long stay - washer/dryer, iron etc. Bathroom has a good shower which is really important after long hikes! Lots of restaurants and good pubs in walking distance as well - we didn't need to drive all week. Smart TV was nice to have on a lazy evening after a big hike. We'll be returning.

Peter April 2023

“Overall we enjoyed our stay.”

We found the apartment very clean, comfortable & spacious. There were a few minor issues as mentioned by previous guests such as broken winding handles on a couple of skylights, TV could do with updating plus the fridge was not very efficient. Apart from this everything was fine & we would certainly consider returning, particularly if these issues were addressed in which case we would give a five star rating.

Michelle March 2023

“The apartment was just as pictured, very well laid out, and clean.”

The parking space was a bit tight with our car, but we managed sufficiently. The only minor issue for me was the mattress on the double bed, I just couldn't get comfortable, it was to soft for my liking. However, It did not make the holiday any less enjoyable, and overall, we were very comfortable in the apartment. We would definitely consider booking again.

- Michelle, March 2023

Thank you for your kind comments. We are glad that you were able to enjoy your holiday despite the mattress. The owner will see this feedback so will be able to assess the mattress for future bookings. We do hope we can welcome you back in the future. Property Owner

“Two Points: (1) No oven glove and we used the oven.”

Trying to use a new-towel as protection isn't very safe (2) Please consider supplying a Smart TV. This is, after all, 2023 not 2003!

“Loved it, such a great space in a brilliant location and really appreciate how homely it felt with more than just the basics.”

Thank you!

“Bed in master bedroom and sofa in lounge need replacing.”

Skylights need cleaning, blocking out what light there is. Opening mechanism on skylight in Lounge is missing. Parking is awkward, especially when gallery staff are parked and there are cars parked in front of garages. Response to comments would be appreciated as we would definitely consider the apartment again if we knew these issues were addressed. Guest instruction booklet needs updating to replace the covid instructions Chocolates were a nice touch. Thank you

Mark September 2022

“Super property really well appointed with everything we needed.”

Great attention to detail and easy to use. Brilliant location. Nice to have parking out the front of the property. Our car fitted on the driveway but probably worth flagging a larger car might be tight.

- Mark, September 2022
John September 2022

“Our second visit to this property and we enjoyed it as much as the first one.”

It’s location is so convenient for bus services and local walks with shops, pubs and restaurants providing everything you could possibly need close by. The accommodation is comfortable, clean and well equipped nearly home from home. We will be returning again next year.

- John, September 2022
Clare September 2022

Clean and comfortable as before and the perfect base for lots of different walks without having to use the car. Thank you again.

Clare April 2022

“We had a fabulous week in this apartment.”

Very comfortable and had everything we needed. It is as described on the website and was very clean. It is in a perfect location and we were able to walk every day from the door. We hope to return and would definitely recommend to friends and family.

“Brilliant apartment in a fantastic location.”

Cleanest let we have arrived to in a long time. One small comment would be that the mattress could be more comfy, but this is subjective! Highly recommended.

About the location

GRASMERE

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 has 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. 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.
