Guests say

Guests consistently praise the apartment for its comfort, cleanliness, and prime location. The property boasts comfortable beds, a well-equipped kitchen, and a charming, quirky character. Its riverside setting offers lovely views and a tranquil atmosphere, yet it remains within easy walking distance to Lancaster's city centre and attractions. The thoughtful touches, such as welcome packs and fresh flowers, contribute to a welcoming and homely stay.

Reviewers frequently mention the apartment's spotless condition and the high standard of cleanliness. The property is described as immaculate, which reflects a well-maintained and cared-for rental.

The location is highly praised for its convenience, quietness, and proximity to local amenities, including pubs, restaurants, and historical sites. The riverside views and easy access to public transport are also appreciated.

Comfort is a highlight, with numerous comments on the comfortable beds and quality mattresses. The living spaces are described as homely and spacious, contributing to a restful experience.

Facilities are generally well-received, with a well-equipped kitchen and quality furniture. However, minor points such as the need for more keys and an ironing board, and a mention of a fiddly lock and ineffective main light, slightly affect the score.

Guests appreciate the thoughtful extras like welcome packs, fresh flowers, and local history books. While these are mentioned positively, it is noted that such gifts, though delightful, are subject to availability and not guaranteed.

About this property

25 St Georges Quay is a charming period apartment housed on the top two floors of a Grade II listed building, dating from the 1750s on Lancaster’s historic quayside, overlooking the River Lune and yes, there’s free parking, too. As soon as you enter the hall, you’ll notice the solid wooden floors have shifted slightly over the years, adding to the building’s quirky and creaky character. The bedrooms are here, accessed directly from the hall. The rear south-facing bedroom overlooks Quay Meadow, whilst the front bedroom boasts stunning river views through its Georgian windows. The modern bathroom’s on this floor, too. Watch your head as you climb the stairs and you’ll come up into the living room. Roughly-hewn wooden beams line the high V-shaped ceiling. This was once the home of one of Lancaster’s leading 18th Century merchants. With daylight streaming into the living room through the generous Velux windows in the roof, what better place to sit and enjoy the views. The newly fitted kitchen is accessed directly from the living room. There’s free, unlimited, on-street parking just 1min away as well as a Pay and Display right behind the property. If you're looking for a larger property in Lancaster, do consider 5 Castle Hill (Ref:1137519) which is under the same ownership as 25 Saint George's Quay

The historic city of Lancaster, the county town of Lancashire, sits on edge of Morecambe Bay with the River Lune flowing through its centre. Lancaster retains many excellent examples of handsome Georgian architecture, and with its captivating medieval castle, Ashton Memorial, and four museums, it's a promising place for those in search of tales of the past.

  • Susanna

    Kitchen well equipped. Beds very comfortable. Would stay there again. The pub next door is nice and the owner is very friendly.

  • Luke

    . we had a fantastic break once we’d got all our stuff upstairs we felt like we’d always lived there.

  • Jean Robert

    Ideal for visiting the region by bus, train or walking into town. The upper room in the flat (kitchen and sitting room) can get quite hot during the day if you are lucky with a sunny weather stay as we were. A most enjoyable two weeks, thank you!
