Mrs Howorth
November 2021

“The steps to access the property are quite steep and very badly lit on a night.”

We stayed on the weekend of storm Arwen and as the property is all electric we did struggle managed to find one torch but we couldn't charge phones to keep out lights on them and didn't know how long we would be without power. And as it is all electric couldn't even make a hot drink. The property it self is clean and bright and close to amentities.

“Absolutely brilliant stay.”

Nothing negative to say about the property. The service from the owner was great, he phoned before the check in time and also phoned mid week to ask if everything was fine.

“The property is in a great location and was clean and tidy but some of its selling point didn’t work.”

Both bath plugs didn’t work so the water went out, the jacuzzi bath that we were really looking forward to didn’t work even when I did manage to get water to stay in the bath. It just needs some TLC and it would be a brilliant place to stay. Would I tell someone to stay yes because of it’s location and cleanliness but would warn them about the thing that don’t work. If you are ok with the little issue (which could be easily sorted) then it’s a great place to stay.

“Excellent location.”

A very well appointed apartment. House bathroom could do with a little updating compared to the en-suite bathroom. Excellent service and support from the apartment owners to resolve a problem we had. I would highly recommend this apartment

Mr Hardwick July 2021

“We lost the house keys during our stay.”

We got excellent help to gain access to the spares. This was an excellent service. Thank you very much indeed. We got a new set cut and put them back in the secret place, in-case it happens to someone else. Thank you.

The property

Ascension Island is a beautiful third-floor apartment nestled in the bustling town centre of Bowness-On-Windermere, a fantastic Lake District hot spot for a group of friends or large family to enjoy.

Traveling up several stairs to the third floor is the entrance to this thoughtfully laid out accommodation, presenting you with a homely living/dining room fitted with everything you'll need for an evening of entertainment, snuggle on the plush corner sofa for a film night in front of the Smart TV, set out the dining table with drinks and board games for a competitive evening, or curl up with a good book on the balcony as you admire views of nature.

Throw together a tasty meal in the kitchen, equipped with all the amenities for your self-catering needs, including a handy washing machine, tumble dryer and dishwasher!

Three lovely bedrooms await for a restful night's sleep, made up of three sumptuous king-size beds all with ample storage and one boasting a luxury en-suite bathroom, featuring a soothing corner bath.

The rest of the group can prepare for the day ahead in the family bathroom, choosing between a calming soak in a bubble bath, or a refreshing rinse in the overhead shower to wake up.

Bowness-on-Windermere town centre is right on the property's doorstep, where a stroll takes you straight to bustling amenities such as shops, pubs, restaurants and cafés for you to pick up essentials or dine out for the night.

The town offers an exciting range of attractions, such as World of Beatrix Potter Attraction, the 1920’s Royalty Cinema and The Old Laundry Theatre, and of course the sensational waters of Lake Windermere, boasting a thrilling selection of watersports and boat trips alongside breath-taking views.

Hope on a boat over to the charming towns of Lakeside or Ambleside, home to the Lakes Aquarium, the Haverthwaite steam railway, and the Lakeland Motor Museum, as well as even more amenities and access to rugged walking and cycling trails along the fells.
