    “This is a unique property, with a lot of history (built in 1874) and incredible accommodation.”

    The apartment was absolutely superb (Apartment 3 - Wilfred). The most spacious living room we've stayed in - which used to be the dinning hall, still showing some of the original features. Cosy bedrooms, spotless bathrooms, luxurious welcome pack. Warm, welcoming and comfortable. Great attention to detail and wow factor. It was nice having the book to read about the place and Ulverston. Good location for the Lakes, short walk into town where there are lots of shops and the Laurel & Hardy museum, ...

    The apartment was absolutely superb (Apartment 3 - Wilfred). The most spacious living room we've stayed in - which used to be the dinning hall, still showing some of the original features. Cosy bedrooms, spotless bathrooms, luxurious welcome pack. Warm, welcoming and comfortable. Great attention to detail and wow factor. It was nice having the book to read about the place and Ulverston. Good location for the Lakes, short walk into town where there are lots of shops and the Laurel & Hardy museum, pubs & restaurants. The outside space of the property is well-kept, with games, but also quiet spots. Thank you for a fantastic stay!
