Stylish Apartment in Stone-Built Former Rectory

Despite being cold when we arrived it warmed up quickly and stayed warm. The apartment had everything we needed and the bed was really comfy.

Although there was parking, it was quite a tricky space to negotiate into and out of. It was still very convenient though.

Quirky, but lovely old building kitted out really nicely. .

What's not to like? It's 2-3 minutes from town centre, and en route for the Drovers Festival.

This is a lovely apartment at the top of an old rectory. It was spotlessly clean, very comfortable, warm and with everything we needed for a week's stay, with the added bonus of glorious views over the Autumn hills surrounding Penrith. The host, Darren, was superhelpful and welcoming, (we had a van and kayaks that wouldn't fit in the garage space allocated to the flat, and he made it seem like no problem at all). The apartment is in a great location for walking into town but still quiet and peaceful. It's at the top of the house, and there are 34 stairs up an outside fire escape to navigate, so you need to be able to manage stairs, but they are well-lit and not at all slippy even in the wet weather we experienced!

All good.

Lovely apartment. Great location, just a few minutes walk into town. Very well equipped.

Nothing not to like, but access is via a metal staircase so not for the less mobile people.

comfort and cleanliness and central location

little warning about steep external staircase could cause problems for some. i found the lack of upright dining table a little difficult
