Guests say
Neland View is a well-located property in Windermere, appreciated for its proximity to local amenities and quietness. The new kitchen and bathroom add a touch of modernity, and the spaciousness is a plus. Parking is generally not an issue. However, some guests have raised concerns about steep stairs without stairgates, which could be a challenge for families with young children or those with mobility issues.
Reviews indicate that the property was generally clean, but there were instances of dust and debris. One guest mentioned having to clean the shower drain themselves, suggesting room for improvement in cleanliness.
The property's location is highly praised for being quiet, convenient, and within walking distance to Windermere and Bowness, as well as being close to a park and local shops.
The property is described as spacious and quiet, contributing to guest comfort. However, concerns about steep stairs and a low ceiling on the second staircase suggest that comfort could be compromised for some guests.
Facilities like the new kitchen and bathroom are appreciated, but issues with doors not closing, a wobbly toilet, and a TV that couldn't be tuned indicate that maintenance could be better.
There is no mention of gifts or special touches that would indicate thoughtfulness from the hosts, so it is not possible to provide a score in this category.

Kitchen and living room doors donât close properly, floor and skirtings are separating etc. low ceiling in the second stair case is dangerous. Easy to avoid when coming downstairs but i almost knocked myself out climbing the stairs for the first time, perhaps a cushion of some kind could be added? The shop below does generate noise until 9pm also.

The night was quiet and shops and pubs just in walking distance.

The sofas were a bit grubby. Other than these couple of observations everything else met our expectations. The property is well located and near to shopping and facilities. Car parking in the street outside was always available when we needed it.
