A very clean property, ideally located to enjoy the centre of Bowness only 5 minutes walk away. Would definitely recommend and will visit again in the future. We didn’t receive the check in details but thankfully Paul was able quickly sort this for us.

Very comfortable accommodation, five minutes from the centre of Bowness. Parking not provided but never had any trouble finding any very close by. Everything we needed for our short break, with the added bonus of two bathrooms, although the shower pressure not great but wasn’t a problem. Would definitely book again.

Ellie's View is very clean and tidy with great decor, a great view & immediately felt at home! Only downside is the steep steps up to the property which were a bit tricky to go up & down with a heavy suitcase & may be a challenge for some people.

Stayed with our two adult children. We thought this accommodation was perfect! Good location. Lots of space and very clean. We had a wonderful Christmas in Bowness. I would recommend this property and would definitely stay here again. The only minor suggestion I would make is improvement of showers which were quite cold and had no real power.

Ellie's View is a lovely property in a quiet residential street and close to the shops at the end of the street, don't forget the shortcut. You can just see the Lake. It is immaculate. The beds and bedding are very comfortable.. Please note the only way to the property is at the rear and there is an outside iron stair way to the front door. The key safe door doesn't drop down when you have put the code in, and after fighting with it for a few minutes I had to call Paul who said to use your finger to gently pull the door down :) The street is on a hill if you have mobility issues. I would definitely stay again. Shame it rained the 2 days we were there but we had a lovely time.

Excellent communication from the host made everything hassle free. Master lock key system meant no problem accessing the property. Comfortable living arrangements and excellent location. Pet friendly too .... only downside would be the parking.

Nice apartment in a lovely area

Nice apartment in a lovely area

Had a nice few days here. The beds were super comfortable and clean, the shower was lovely and the bath upstairs was a nice size. There was no plug in the downstairs bathroom though, which was a downside with a mixed party both wanting baths at the end of a very taxing day. The towels in the main bedroom were also not very pleasant, they had more of a blanket like texture and we found long hairs on them. That said, we had no other issues with cleanliness. The kitchen was nice and decently equipped, although when preparing food the knives were rather blunt. The view from the bay window in the living room was lovely, perfect in the evenings.

Bowness Retreat

Bowness Retreat

While the access to the retreat is a fair climb, it is well worth it. The rooms are quaint and full of charm. Directions given by the owner were well stated. The views from each of the bow windows were exceptional. Ellie’s View is close to bus routes and delightful tea and breakfast spots. The town is full of lovely dogs of all makes and sizes.

Great location and a massive well equipped apartment for a holiday let.

Great location and a massive well equipped apartment for a holiday let.

Let’s get the fact the decor is a bit out of date out of the way. It looks like it does on the pics and is clean, we had no qualms. Also that will be a reason the price is so reasonable. The apartment is located 5 min walk to Bowness itself. It’s in a quiet part a couple hundred yards off the main road. Have a cup of tea in the Bay window. Lovely view. It has everything you’ll need for a great holiday. There are stairs and Bowness is built on a steep hill. So think about that if your walking isn’t what it used to be. We’ve stayed in a few apartments over the years through homeway formerly owners direct and Airbnb. Pound for pound this was amazing value for money. We will be back. Happy holidays.

Disappointed

Disappointed

We were extremely disappointed with the state of cleanliness of the property. We had our 3 months old with us. It felt so unhygienic when we saw the beds, toilets and kitchen. Toilet had dirty marks. Family bathroom wasn't draining water from bathtub. Beds were not comfy at all. Towels were filthy. Found hair in between duvet and bedsheets. Regret highly for booking this place... Couldn't rate less than 1 star. Or else I would have.

Good basic stay

Good basic stay

This property had all the basics we needed except the pots and pans were very used and minimal and there was no dish soap. The strange thing about this property is that the advertisement is as if you can walk Ellie the dog and the people who own it are nearby and it is going to be a cozy and personalized place to visit. It is not that. We never heard nor saw the owners, much less the dog. There was no welcome of any kind. The place is basic clean: basic bedding, basic dishes, and off site parking. There are no real touches to make you feel welcomed to the property - which is fine as long as its billed that way. It is incredibly convenient to get to the town center and also has nice views . The furniture and beds were comfortable. the pictures of the place are accurate and that is really important and valuable. It would have been helpful to have a fan as It was incredibly hot. It was so hot in fact, it was uncomfortable to be in the living areas from mid day till about 18:30. I know the weather was extreme, but it would have said something if the owners had brought over a fan with a note. Again this kind of touch says they care about the people who are staying. Honestly, a few little personal touches would have turned this "fine" place into something special/memorable. This was the consensus of our whole family rather than just mine. I was the one paying and did not note the cost.
