- Zoe (10/5): Loved it, will definitely be back - Really clean and well equipped. Perfectly sized for a couple and 2 cav’s. Ideally situated between Windermere and Bowness.
- Stacey (9/5): Superb -
- David (8/5): Very good - Nice apartment well located and nice a clean, check-in could be sooner. Unfortunately the bed was uncomfortable and just a double. The bed
- Anonymous (9/5): Superb -
- Recina (10/5): Lovely flat, perfect for staying with dogs - Lovely closed self contained flat with patio, excellent for attending with dogs
Sadly we were in Windermere for my father in law's funeral, so we didn't get to appreciate the flat for long, however we would stay again
Having a washing machine and cooking facilities also was a bonus a lock for the gate would of been handy, due to having dogs and to ensure nobody could get in whilst they were out
- Lesley (6/5): The lake was beautiful the property was in a good location sofa in property very uncomfortable - Location good The sofa in the property was so uncomfortable not able to relax after a lovely day
- Alan (10/5): Exceptional -
- Whittaker-smith (8/5): Very good - Was a good little cottage, met all our needs as we brought our dog, everything to hand, the only downfall is the settee wasn't comfy, everything else was great thanks
- Suzanne (9/5): Hidden gem - Bigger than expected with its own enclosed garden area, ideal for sitting out with my dog. Very tastefully decorated, handy information folder detailing local walks, I.e. Sherrifs wood across the road, ideal for dog walks off the lead. Parking was easy and free. Bus stop across the road for trips out so the car never moved. Ideal location half way between Windermere and Bowness. Would stay again!
- Plant (10/5): Exceptional - Really nice stay, location was spot on!
- Maureen (8/5): Loved it and would stay again. - Had trouble with the lock box.Instructions need to be more explicit
- Joanne (10/5): Great location - Very clean and location was great You can hear the people above walking around, it wasn't too bad but that would depend who was staying there.
- Adam (10/5): Clean tidy cosy comfortable ideal location perfect for dog walkers. - The Snuggery is the ideal location at a really reasonable price!
The location is perfect. It’s a 5/10 min walk to Bowness but what makes this location spot on is that it’s away from the busyness of the centre meaning loads of free on street parking and next too no noise on an evening.
The property its self is really cosy and the bed was also really comfy! The property comes with all necessary facilities and a really nice touch was a book of local walks that the owner had provided. Just across the crossing over the zebra crossing following the road towards Windermere there is a walk called “Sherifs Wood or walk?” Really good for walking the pooch. The owner supplied plenty of towels and the place was really clean and tidy.
Overall I’d 100% recommend this place. Definitely be booking to stay here again. No complaints!
- Rachel (10/5): Exceptional - Lovely apartment, warm and cosy with everything we needed. Nothing to dislike
- Sophie (7/5): Good -
- Emma (9/5): Superb - Great facilities, very clean and good location. Nothing

- Vincent (9/5): Superb -
- Marshall (8/5): Very good -
- Karen (9/5): Modern, cosy, comfortable, everything we needed - Location was great, a short walking distance away from the high street. Apartment had everything we needed, was cosy, comfortable, modern and dog friendly the reason for booking. Would highly recommend. Host responded quickly to messages, with easy lockbox access.
- Michele (10/5): We loved it at the snuggery, we shall be back - Was very easy to find and access, beautifully clean and well equipped.
Location great for both Bowness and Windermere It could have a Tv point in the bedroom or a more comfortable sofa, but that's being extra 😊
- Andrea (8/5): Very good -
- Jim (9/5): Excellent property would stay again - The bed was too small and a few more consumables would be good eg salt and oil.
- Keeley (10/5): Exceptional -
- Lorraine (8/5): Very good -
- Janet (10/5): Exceptional -
- Zoe (9/5): A great base for our short break, a super apartment in a really convenient location. - Great location between Bowness and Windermere with easy access on foot to both. Plenty of on-street parking just outside the property. Cosy and well equipped, perfect for our short stay. There was some noise from the house above (footsteps) during the evenings. Bit of an annoyance but I'm not sure what could be done about it.
- Sam (10/5): Exceptional -
- Bethany (8/5): A lovely apartment in a perfect location - The apartment was a great size, clean and had a small enclosed garden for our dog. Just what we needed for our time away.
Location was perfect for us. It was only a 10 mins walk to bowness on windermere or windermere and there was also a bus outside which went both locations when we were feeling lazy. The garden could have done with some tidying up as it was a bit overgrown.
- Tomas (9/5): Superb -
- Leanne (9/5): Superb -

- Cameron (9/5): Lovely and cosy :) - The property was lovely. Nice, minimalistic, light and clean. It was a perfect base for us to come back to after exploring but also a pleasant place to spend time at. Dog friendly which was a huge plus. Cosy, nice and warm, we were very comfortable :) Just some picky things but feel these are easy quick fixes. We only had a towel each for the three night stay which meant we had to reuse multiple times, feel we could have done with a spare each. The property wasn’t stocked with toilet paper, we only had just over half a roll on arrival and ran out, unaware there was no more. I feel toilet roll isn’t something we should have ended up having to provide ourselves. We wouldn’t mind as much but there’s no shops close by, it’s a 15 minute walk to the closest one. We thought some form of toothbrush holder would have been nice too :)
- Joanne (10/5): Relaxing - It was just the right size for us for our first holiday with our dogs There only seemed to be 1 dinner plate and the others were like pasta bowls, but other than that everything else was good
- Alex (10/5): Exceptional -
- Diane (8/5): A really nice clean and comfortable apartment in a great location for both Windermere and Bowness - Location!
Property was in a really good spot. Good parking. Nice and clean. Lovely big comfortable bedroom and bathroom. Living area could have been made a bit cosier. Sofa quite small.
Only one radiator for kitchen, dining and living area - which made it a little chilly at times.
- Julie (10/5): Everything was amazing from start to finish - All of it Nothing
- Lewis (10/5): Perfect. - Perfect place and location. A lot bigger than we expected. We loved it!
- Sophie (8/5): Amazing apartment, wonderful stay in the Lakes - Excellent location, lovely and clean, good facilities and host extremely helpful. The bed was a little too small and residents in the property above were noisy.
- Scott (9/5): Excellent apartment in a great location. Will be booking again! - Brilliant location just a few minutes walk in to Bowness or Windermere. Great comms from owner with easy to follow instructions. If I was to be picky I would say couch was not meant for relaxing on and table for eating perhaps could be moved in to main room, however expect in summer months it’s nice to eat whilst sitting by window etc.
- Sheena (9/5): Superb - Loved the location and the facilities in the apartment. Our host could not have been better. We arrived early and were allowed early access. Communication was superb. We will defo stay again. We would have loved a bigger sofa and a TV in the bedroom.
- Alan (10/5): Exceptional -
- Kathryn (10/5): Wonderful apartment and location - The apartment was spotlessly clean when I arrived. The location is ideal between Windermere and Bowness-on-Windermere, easily walkable. Well stocked with everything you could need. Only 2 very minor points, better pillows for the bed but that is a personal preference and maybe a slightly larger sofa in the living room.
- Lisa (9/5): A lovely weekend break in a very comfortable ground floor apartment. - Well furnished, comfortable, and in a good location. Would benefit from new bedding
- Simon (8/5): A fantastic place to base yourself to explore the Lake District. - Location was good for parking (on the road outside) and for walking into Bowness (10 minutes). It was a spacious, warm, very clean, modern, well appointed apartment. The bed was very comfortable. We spoke to the owner when we were leaving and mentioned that the shower was warm but not hot, the teapot was missing and an ice tray would be useful. He wasn’t aware of the water temperature so was going to address that. There was supposed to be a teapot but it must have gone missing, he was going to sort that out, and he would look at getting an ice tray.
It would be helpful to add information about how long the walks were in the information pack just to help know how suitable they were.
Also the coat hooks were rather high.
- Claire (10/5): The Snuggery was amazing, great location and great amenities. - The location was amazing, just a short walk in to Windermere, due to all the sudden snow we loved that rather than doing the hill walks as planned we could walk into Windermere instead! Heating system was a little noisy in the morning.
- Natalie (10/5): A wonderful dog friendly staycation in a fab apartment - A fantastic apartment in a great location. Really clean and nicely presented. I liked it all.
- Alan (10/5): Exceptional -
