“A really lovely apartment at a great price.”

The apartment was perfect for myself, my fiancée & our 7 month old daughter. I wouldn’t say you could get many more in it though. The location was absolutely fantastic right in the heart of Bowness.

The apartment was perfect for myself, my fiancée & our 7 month old daughter. I wouldn’t say you could get many more in it though. The location was absolutely fantastic right in the heart of Bowness. The only slight issue we had was the temperature in the apartment. It was really chilly and the place needs a couple more heaters as the radiators aren’t very good. Overall a lovely place and we would definitely return once it gets a little warmer!

“Olivia’s hideaway is in the perfect location to explore the Lake District and provided a cosy home base to cone back to.”

We loved how close the we were to the town centre and took advantage of the fantastic restaurant within walking distance. We happily return to this place again.

“Cosy and comfy”

Me and my boyfriend loved staying here! Very central to everywhere we wanted to go, even just nipping to the shop for snacks. A very comfy and cosy place to stay, was like it was our own little apartment and free wifi too! Bonus

“Very dissapointed”

Unfortunately I can not reccomend Olivia's hideaway I will post this copy of the last email I sent sykes cottages to which I had no response. Hi I am just writing to follow up with some feedback on our stay seeing as nobody seems to be bothered to get in touch from Sykes cottages. We were really disappointed during our stay with the poor service and communication during our stay. As you know we reported our shower broken on the first morning of our stay to which you responded by letting us know somebody would be out to check, we were then informed the shower needed fixing but nobody could come out until Monday morning as nobody available to repair this was disappointing but we accepted this, we left the key on monday and heard nothing from anybody at all, we arrived back later on monday to a footprint in the bath and the shower control knob was clearly broken/loose. We had no further update from anybody so we were unsure if to leave a key again, I did email Sykes cottages for an update but received no response, a few days went by and it became clear you were ignoring the situation so we just carried on with our holiday. As you can imagine a small bath and no shower for a family on an active walking holiday is far from ideal. To top things off on our last morning when we were packing our things ready for check out by 10:00 we had a knock at the door at 9:00 from a plumber coming to repair the shower I found this very unprofessional that someone would be sent when we were due to leave and while we were very busy, so I advised him to return later after we had left. As I am sure you can understand this is very poor and I will be posting this email as my review on sykes cottages and this property.

“Perfect Relaxing Stay”

Lovely relaxing break at Olivia's Hideaway. Location is excellent, right in the middle of Bowness. The apartment is quiet, comfortable with modern decor. Plenty of places serving breakfast nearby. Excellent value for money and will definitely stay again. Thanks

“Could be better”

Just a couple of things we wernt to happy about 1) could write down internet password some where. 2) beer bottles under sofa 3) big stains on mattress protector 4) the bed is so uncomfortable as is the sofa 5) nothing much you can do about this , the people above have there tv very loud until 3 in the morning so not much sleep

“Perfect weekend away, highly recommend.”

Olivia’s Hideaway is the perfect setting for a couple’s weekend away. Stunning flat in stunning surroundings. The flat is situated in a great location, close to all shops, bars and restaurants. Very comfortable flat with everything you’d need and more! Would love to stay again.

“Perfect weekend away”

We Have visited many hotels in bowness and all have not been walking distance into the town. This apartment was literally on the door step of bowness and is very easy to find if you are not from the area. The parking is a night mare anywhere in the lake district and this apartment came with a free parking space just outside where you will be staying. It was very clean on arrival and had everything we needed for the night , it was such a lovely area and the room was perfect! we will be booking again.

“Perfect location for a perfect getaway in beautiful surroundings”

Recently returned from a lovely stay at Olivias hideaway. The flat itself was beautiful and is done to a really high spec. We were both really impressed when we arrived, the pictures really don’t do the flat justice.It was very clean and tidy with everything you could possibly need for a perfect little getaway. Location really sold it for us on this flat as you literally could not get any better as the shops, bars, restaurants and the lake were all within a 5 minute walk. Easy to find with parking on site which is a bonus as we know ourselves how hard parking can be in the lakes. Enjoyed it so much we have already booked to go again.
