Perfect location, comfortable accommodation
By saying this was our third stay, you can tell we love this place. Just a couple of minutes walk from the bustle of Bowness, the tranquility of this place is amazing. Decorated to a high standard, furnished with everything you need, amazing views and close to walks, we don't consider staying anywhere else.

Comfortable stay, would recommend
Comfortable accommodation in an excellent location. Only criticism is that the toilet seat needs replacing as it is stained underneath and doesn’t meet the standard of the rest of the apartment.

Annie's View, great location, good facilities. But left wanting.
A lovely little place to stay in the heart of Bowness-on-Windermere. In my opinion more could be made of Annie's view's history. Take down the generic art work of a New York USA scene in the lounge. Put up prints of the old photographs from the cottage's history as illustrated in the books supplied on the bookcase. Or some pictures up that are linked to the area.
The cottage had great facilities. The shower cubicle needed a good clean as the tiles were full of mould & grime. Just lacked the attention it should deserve.
Die Lage der Wohnung ist perfekt um in Windermere und Umgebeung Urlaub zu machen. Ideal für 2 Personen. Alles wichtige ist zu fuß erreichbar. Die Kommunikation und der Check in Vorgang haben ohne Probleme funktioniert.
