Bowness-on-Windermere, United Kingdom

We were greeted with a lovely lady who turned out to be Nick's (The Proprietor) sister and immediately loved the ambience of the property. The quality of breakfast was superb and the choice was more than adequate. The locality to the main shops was perfect as it was far away enough not to be in the hustle and bustle of Bowness, but near enough to walk. Nicks garden is a rarity in Bowness in its size, so it was a real treat to sit and enjoy the serenity of it. Being May, the rhododendrons and azaleas are in full bloom, not only in Nicks garden, but all over Windermere. Bedroom could have been a bit bigger, but for the money it was very good value for money. Nick left homemade cakes each day, which were delicious, available communally with a welcome jar of home made biscuits in our room. I would certainly visit again, hopefully with a bit better weather, but that's England for you!

I felt that the room could have been more thoroughly cleaned, i.e. the skirting had dust on it, and the shower waste perhaps needed a little attention.

For the price I thought it was excellent value for money. Sure the walls could do with a lick of paint and there was a strange stain on the ceiling but for the price it was better than I expected.

People shouting outside at all hours of the early morning (I was woken up on my first night by someone banging on my door at 4am, and there was some argument going on my last night that woke me up at 2am and at 4am) This of course was beyond staff control.

Friendly host, gave us lots of suggestions for where to eat in Dingwall. Also knowledgeable about nearby attractions and places to visit. A hearty breakfast was provided.

The shower head was broke so there wasn't much pressure in the water as it was just pooring down the handle instead. Also the TV had no signal so we couldn't watch anything or play the radio through it either.
