Guests say
The Boat House at Louper Weir in Windermere is praised for its stunning lake views, high-quality amenities, and the inclusion of a kayak and hot tub. Guests appreciate the well-equipped kitchen and luxurious touches. However, the narrow spiral staircase and challenging parking are noted drawbacks. The property's serene location and the opportunity to explore the lake add to a memorable stay.
Cleanliness
The property generally receives high marks for cleanliness, with guests noting it is well-maintained. However, there are isolated comments about areas that could be improved, such as under the bed and the outdoor balcony, which suggest occasional lapses.
Location
The location is highly praised for its breathtaking views and serene setting on Lake Windermere. The proximity to local towns and the private jetty are appreciated, although the narrow access road is a challenge for some.
Comfort
While the property is admired for its views and high-end furnishings, comfort is compromised by the hard mattress and the noise from the boat and kayak. The spiral staircase is a recurring issue for guests, affecting the overall comfort level.
Facilities
The facilities, including the kitchen gadgets, sound system, and hot tub, are well-received. However, maintenance issues like the underfloor heating, electric gates, and the need for a more substantial staircase are mentioned, indicating room for improvement.
