Probably the best value and location in the Lakes!

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.
