"Far exceeded expectations"
"It’s rare to find a holiday let finished and presented to such a high standard – far exceeded expectations and highly recommended. Best walks: Glenridding to Howtown (Ullswater) and return journey via steamer boat, and Hampsfell (Grange-over-Sands). Recommended drive: Honister Pass via Buttermere." - October 2010

"Up there with the best"
"Thank you for a lovely stay and especially for your attentive personal service - the birthday card was a lovely touch. We have stayed in some excellent (prize winning indeed!) accommodation over the years and yours is up there with the best. We will recommend the apartment without reservation." - October 2010

"Forget 5 star hotels"
"Forget 5 star hotels, this apartment is so much better - more spacious, more comfortable and with no balcony supplement! Best food - The Dalesman in Sedbergh. Best drive - Hardknott Pass." - October 2010

"We rebooked for next year as soon as we got home"

"We stayed in this spacious apartment in early October and had a fantastic holiday. We stayed as a couple but two couples or a family of four would be equally comfortable. The facilities are first rate and, being almost brand new, are high quality and comprehensive. The kitchen equipment even includes a rolling pin! A nice touch but I imagine that if I had suggested to my wife that, on holiday, she prepare a meal involving rolling out pastry, she would be more likely to brain me with said implement. Altogether a highly recommended holiday home - we rebooked for next year as soon as we got home." - October 2010

"Top notch in every way"
"Lovely apartment. Top notch in every way! We had a wonderful time and really enjoyed Kendal. Loved the balcony! Highly recommended: Deja Vu and New Moon for food, and Brewery Arts Centre for drinks. Will definitely be back! Thank you!" - September 2010

"...this is easily the best!"
"We've stayed in several such apartments around the county and this is easily the best! Especially the balcony! Wonderful place and holiday. We would recommend a visit to Blackwell House - a stunning Arts & Crafts house in a beautiful setting." - September 2010

"Superb - 10/10"
"Paul, your service from the start has been exceptional. To you and Becky, you have both created a wonderful place. Superb - 10/10. We've all had a wonderful week with lots of sunshine. 2 highlights: the Settle to Carlisle train journey and lunch at the Masons Arms at Cartmel Fell - great food and views." - August 2010

"Apartment is excellent"
"Apartment is excellent. Very well and thoughtfully equipped. Very relaxing aspect. Could watch the river for ages." - July 2010

"Very lovely town to explore"
"A wonderful apartment. Very calming by the river. Had a lovely week. Very lovely town to explore as is all the majestic countryside of the Lakes. Thank you. Hope to come back." - July 2010

"The balcony wins Gold Award!"
"Wonderful week, in every way – the balcony wins Gold Award! All so comfortable, even weather perfect. Warm welcome was nice. The apartment was perfect for us; central location, closeness to bus station (we buzzed about in the open-tops all over the place!), but above all the easy, informal comfort of the beautifully furnished apartment. The balcony made our visit feel as if we were abroad, in the sunshine, watching the river below! The friendly helpfulness shown by Paul and Doreen was much appreciated. Hope to be back!" - June 2010
