"Bar staff were friendly and talkative. Housemaid was terrific she also served us a delicious breakfast… she worth her weight in gold. We would definitely recommend and go back."
"Lovely property and location. Everything you could possibly need in the property. Fan a bit loud in bathroom. Parking little tight when full but doable "
"Visable damp on the bathroom wall by the shower and a very strong smell of damp in the downstairs area including bedrooms. The owner tried to disguise the smell with air fresheners and by leaving the windows open but the smell of damp was still immediately apparent on entry.
Had we been staying longer than 2 nights and not arrived so late in the evening on the first night we would have left.
It was a real shame because everything else about the property and surrounding area was beautiful, but...
"I really enjoy the place . If you planning to stay here I recommend this. But there is no near by shop if you came to enjoy the weather you will like it. "

"What a great find .tree top apartment. Loved the apartment very comfortable. The area may seem out in the sticks but just at the bottom of the hill if you turn right from the estate is a trusty bus service 516 taking uou to ambleside where the bus services there can take you all round and opentop buses.Just by the bus stop iin skelwith is a lovely pub with really good food .then up the other road to your right from the bus stop is a great cafe with yummy cakes .a walk up from there is skelwith force with a moderate walk to nearby villages with amazing views and great food serving ..so all in all really good place to stay and enjoy the views and sample good lake district hospitality.

"Perfect place for a getaway. We were warmly welcomed by the host who straight away recommended places to go for dinner. Our room was lovely with a beautiful view of the countryside. We had a full English cooked for us which was spot on as we departed to climb scafell. We definitely would stay at this hotel again when we next visit the lakes "
