We stayed at this apartment in low season (November). We are a family of 4 and the apartment states on the website that it is family friendly, however this is not the case! The apartment was very cold and we were told upon arrival that the owners charge extra for the gas fire and told not to have the lights on especially not to put the fan on in the bathroom, which actually powers the main light in the bathroom!!

The owner said this is because it was low season and we were getting it at such a cheap price. When I researched the average price I found that it was only £10 cheaper than the usual rate, (we paid £197.00 for two nights accom. I don't consider this to be cheap compared with other apartments we have stayed at in the Lake district. We only had 2 toilet rolls during our three night stay and couldn't contact the land lady to get anything we needed on the first night!

The owners were far too controlling and I spent most of the stay worrying whether my children would break something! You have to do all your own cleaning, even down to the vaccuming and when it came to check out time she asked us for more money for the gas fire stating that we had had it on all day, when this was incorrect!!

I fail to see who this apartment would be suitable for. It was noisy and definately not family friendly but I also couldn't see why it would be suitable for young groups as the landlady lives next door and is very particular about the treatment of her apartment.

The apartment itself is average but nicely decorated however it is too small for a family of four and it was furnished with lots of china which I feel is not very safe when you have young children! The plates were chipped, towels old and I wouldn't consider this as a 4 star apartment more like a 3 star. I wouldn't recomend it to anyone!
