Snaptrip says

Bownessys Retreat is a well-regarded holiday home praised for its prime location near Lake Windermere and local amenities. Guests appreciate the property's cleanliness, ample indoor space, and good internet. While the bed comfort received mixed reviews, the overall experience is positive, with guests willing to return.

Guests that stayed at this property said

Guests consistently described the apartment as spotlessly clean, indicating high standards of cleanliness.

The property's location is highly praised for being close to Lake Windermere, local shops, and walking routes, making it an outstanding choice for explorers.

The comfort of the property is generally well-received, though there are comments about the bed not being very comfortable and noise from upstairs guests.

Facilities are regarded as lovely, with good internet and space to relax indoors. However, no specific maintenance issues are mentioned, so the score reflects the positive facilities feedback.

There is no mention of gifts or special touches that would indicate thoughtfulness from the host, so it is not possible to provide a score in this category.
