We particularly enjoyed walking the trail into Keswick which ran behind the Apartment block. The Apartment itself was comfortable and very clean, few little niggles with water pressure and lack of cupboard space in the kitchen but overall didn't effect our stay and we would stay again.

The only negative is the shower unit in apartment 3. It's not fit for purpose. Impossible to get a stable or safe temperature and water flow is poor to say the least. Other than that, everything was great.
