Guests say

Geltsdale Garden Apartment is frequently praised for its beautiful decor, homely feel, and stunning views. Guests appreciate the peaceful location and the property's proximity to local attractions and amenities. The apartment is well-equipped, offering a comfortable stay and a sense of being a home away from home. While some guests mention minor issues, the overall sentiment is positive, with many expressing a desire to return.

Most guests found the apartment to be clean and well-maintained, contributing to a comfortable stay. However, there was a mention of uncleanliness and cobwebs, which suggests room for improvement in this area.

The location is highly regarded for its tranquillity, beautiful views, and easy access to local attractions, including historic sites and convenient transport links. The village's charm adds to the appeal.

Guests often describe the apartment as comfortable, with luxurious bedding and a warm atmosphere. Some guests, however, noted the sofas could be more comfortable, indicating a slight deduction in this category.

The apartment is praised for being well-equipped and providing a hassle-free experience. Criticisms include intermittent Wi-Fi, a lack of HD TV, and some maintenance issues, which suggest that while facilities are generally good, there is scope for enhancement.

While some guests missed a welcome pack, which is a thoughtful touch often appreciated, there is not enough consistent information about gifts or additional thoughtful gestures to accurately score this category.

    The perfect setting for peace, quiet & tranquility, which was just what one of us needed following a very difficult time. The ground floor setting, throughout, is ideal for anyone with mobility difficulties; even the front door & path are step free! Parking is right next to path too, which is also all level. Very well equipped apartment indeed; want for nothing. Beds are extremely comfortable; luxurious linen, towels & hand soaps/lotions. We had a small query, which the very accommodating owner was more than happy to instantly help us with - thank you. Geltsdale Gardens is a great place to relax & unwind or a base to explore the Lakes & over the border into Scotland. Highly recommend & certainly won’t hesitate to return. Thank you for a lovely stay.

    The setting is beautiful and the apartment lived up to expectations. We had everything we needed including comfortable beds and a lovely view! As bird lovers we were pleased to watch the resident sparrowhawk patrol her territory, and we even picked up a kingfisher on our birdsong app (sadly didn’t see it). Having planned to drive, we ended up taking the train at short notice and were pleasantly surprised by how much we were still able to do. The station is 10 minutes walk and the service was remarkably efficient. Supermarket and takeaway deliveries were easy to arrange which helped! A very pleasant week altogether, I would certainly recommend the area and the apartment.

  • Nicky

    The apartment was spectacular with stunning views across the northern Pennines. Everything we could need was provided for to make our stay as comfortable and relaxing as ever. It is a great 'base' to explore near and far as well as being on the edge of Wetheral - a quintessentially English village with a wonderful little shop/post office and coffee shop. We can't wait to visit again - our week at Geltsdale flew by all too quickly.
