Very nice place!

We had an awesome stay at Partridge Holme. The cottage is very well located in Bowness. Everything is within walking distance. The parking (and thanks for the parking pass) is not too far and convenient. The place is well decorated and is packed with everything you need. Property was spotless and well-maintained. Communications with the owners were easy with plenty of info and our security deposit cheque (not cashed) was promptly returned after our stay.

I highly recommend this property for anyone visiting the area.

It has been six months since we stayed at Partridge Holme and I have been a bit slack with posting my promised review; however, here it is!

The cottage was a bit hard to find, but when we finally located it, in it's tiny village street, we were enchanted! We fell in love with the house straightaway and very quickly found our way around Bowness.

The cottage itself is small, but that was what we wanted and expected - the point being, don't book this place for a crowd! However, for the two of us, plus two more for one night, it was absolutely perfect. Alex and Frank have ensured that every necessary amenity has been provided for a comfortable and trouble-free stay and the Car Park pass is pure gold! Just ensure you understand its area limitations.

Being centrally located in Bowness meant that we could access pretty much anywhere in the District within an hour or so drive or by using the ferry services. The location was also fantastic for access to many nearby walks, which was a big feature of our stay. We took at least one good walk every day and when we returned to Partridge Holme, drying our clothes was surprisingly easy, given the small size of the house and no garden. The radiators were very efficient!

One of the most important aspects of booking any holiday is the attitude and service provided by the operators. Frank and Alex were fantastic in that regard and provided great information, assistance and advice both before and during our stay. Having booked at fairly short notice from Australia, that was vital to the success of our visit.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and recommend this cottage to everyone we talk to. If you, dear reader, are considering staying here - just do it!

Happy trails to all and a big thank you to Alex and Frank.

Just back from this cottage and had a great time. It is ideally situated for exploring Bowness and Windermere and surrounding area. Just a few minutes walk away from the main shopping and lakes area. Cottage is really clean and well maintained. Owners were very helpful from the time off booking till we arrived home. Would recommend this cottage to anyone who wants to holiday in the Lake District. The parking pass is really useful when you are out and about. Would return to this cottage again when holidaying in this area.

Hello Frank and Alex,

I just wanted to say thank so much for such a lovely stay at your cottage over the first bank holiday weekend! We had such a lovely time in the Lake district and all really wished we could have been there a while longer. Thanks also for being so good about Steve dropping the keys overboard while on the ferry to Ambleside!! What a nightmare!

I was wondering if the £100 cheque I sent up with the deposit (which I think was for accidental damages) would be returned to us or if you have already disposed of it? I just wanted to confirm basically that it was or will be destroyed or sent back.

Thanks again, we will be sure to recommend your cottage to our friends and any one we hear of that is planning up trip up that way.

Amanda
