Absolutely gorgeous apartment in the middle of town. Equipped with absolutely everything you need....including coffee maker...important!! No parking but cheap carpark a few minutes walk away. Super big, comfortable bed and lovely bathroom. Everything is immaculately clean. Easy to access. Lovely touch of a Christmas tree and chocs and little bottle of fizz. Will definitely return when visiting Carlisle. Host went out their way to try help when we had to change dates and also when I forgot something.

Wow! This place was absolutely perfect. Large rooms, super comfy beds and two separate bathrooms. Only booked one night, wished we'd booked more. Easy to get to, GPS in car was wrong, parking great. Super quiet site (no road noise) and facilities were fantastic. Clearly a very well looked after property.

Everything. The rooms were very clean and comfortable. The hosts were lovely and went out of their way to make us feel welcome. They couldn't do enough for us! The location was ideal for local sightseeing and easy enough to navigate from driving further afield. We will book again!
