“A beautiful apartment.”

Well equipped and very comfortable. Ideally located down a quiet private road , 5 mins walk from Windermere. A great location for exploring the rest of the Lakes. Highly recommend this property.

“Great apartment in great location.”

Some slight attention required to loose bedroom door handles. This is just info for routine maintenance. The apartment is great, well equipped and looked after.

“This is a beautiful apartment in an ideal location.”

Right in the centre of Windermere with off road parking and really quiet as it’s off the main high street. The apartment is stylish, cosy and comfortable. We have stayed here 4 times now and will definitely be back again. You can catch a bus easily to visit Ambleside or Grassmere and Bowness is a lovely 20 minute stroll away. The perfect place for a stylish and relaxing break.

“We so enjoyed our stay at Wandsfell at Lipwood.”

It is beautifully furnished, in a fabulous position and so very peaceful. The only two minor things were the lack of terrestrial tv, and no caffetiere. Would definitely stay again.

“This was our second time we have stayed at Wansfell at Lipwood house and again it did not let us down and we are looking to book for next year as it is a great apartment with plenty of space and very comfortable if your looking for a place to stay in Windermere to stay then this is the ideal place to have as your base for your stay in the lakes.”

The only niggle we had is that it could do with a shower tidy in the en-suite so you have somewhere to put your shampoo/body wash when taking a shower and in the kitchen it could do with a proper seated bread knife. other than that it is perfect.

“Wonderful condition of the apartment.”

It was very new, very modern equipments and decoration. Spacious rooms and fully functioning. Fantastic location to explore the Windermere town and access the entire Lake District! It was a shame that we had to leave this lovely apartment in just 4 days. Small problem with the fire alarms, it is a bit too “Sensitive”.

Paul March 2024

“Excellent apartment, location to Windermere and Bowness perfect, and great base for exploring the rest of the lakes.”

Apartment is high quality and well equipped. Our only suggestion would be to improve the TV availability as there is no terrestrial access, where it seems a cheap cost cutting measure to avoid a licence at odds with the overall quality of the apartment

Ideally situated for all amenities. We are planning on returning next year.

“We had to get the agent out to let us in on arrival - the plate on the front of the lock means the key does not fit.”

And we had no hot water on two mornings - fault with boiler. Again the agent came out on the day in the middle of our stay but it went wrong again on our last day. This is not what I was expecting from an expensive rental. I understand the issues need to be taken up with the owner so I hope this will be forwarded.

- Judith, September 2023

Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry to hear of the issues that you experienced during your stay but we are glad to hear that we were able to help resolve. Thank you- The Lakelovers Owner Relations Team Property Owner

“Receives my very highest recommendation.”

Absolutely the highest grade accommodation we have ever stayed in, with everything you need. Perfect location close to Windemere centre, but so very quiet and comfortable. Felt privileged to stay and wished we had booked more time; already looking at coming back.

Step into the welcoming hallway with warm oak parquet flooring, where you can discard any coats and shoes after your journey. Look forward to pouring in the bubbles and enjoying a soothing soak in the bath in the traditional Victorian-style bathroom, blended with a contemporary monochrome décor. Further along the hallway, you will find two well-presented bedrooms, a super-king-size (zip/link) and a king-size with en-suite shower room, where you can indulge in a refreshing shower under the twin heads, one of which is a monsoon shower head. At the end of the hallway, you will find the social hub of the apartment, an open-plan living space, where you can conjure up tasty feasts in the well-equipped kitchen, with handy dishwasher for keeping your space tidy! Gather around the dining table to savour a tasty meal and uncork a bottle of wine to toast a wonderful getaway with your loved ones. Retreat to the sitting room where you can sink back into the plush sofa and select your favourite film from the Smart TV. Awake from a leisurely slumber and enjoy your morning coffee before setting out to explore the communal grounds. Venture into the local town, where you will find an excellent selection of pubs and restaurants just a stone’s throw away, perfect for those evenings where you fancy a night off from the kitchen. The walkers of your party will delight at the superb selection of scenic walks on offer, including the ones up Queen Adelaide’s Hill and Orrest Head which offer magnificent views over Lake Windermere. For the thrill seekers, Lake Windermere is the place to be, with a wide variety of watersports on offer including sailing, wakesurfing and kneeboarding to name a few, as well as the regular boat tours which frequently take place. Be sure to make a stop at Blackwell Arts & Crafts House, an impressive 19th-century house filled with an array of furniture and objects or head to the National Trust Claife Viewing Station where you can soak up the fantastic surrounding scenery on a 4-mile ambling trail. Just a little further is the town of Kendal, where you can delve into the local history at the Kendal Museum, learn more about the town’s rich tapestry heritage at the Quaker Tapestry Museum or explore the fascinating remains of the former Kendal Castle which features ruined towers and hidden vaults.
