Weve been staying at Broomriggs for over 40 years and mostly in flat 10. We love it there - Cosy and clean and so well equipped. I believe you are new owners - keep up the good work! Thank you for another wonderful couple of weeks despite the awful weather. Ps the communal dryer is a bit hit and miss - sometimes it doesnt do a full cycle

If you like the Langdales, Coniston and Loughrigg walks then this is a great, peaceful location to base a holiday. Despite the october half-term weather we were warm and comfortable, with good car parking and it gets ASDA deliveries to the property timed for just when we arrived (book well ahead from the Kendall store). Baths were hot and the clothRead morees washer/dryer worked well. Only the internet was SLOW for uploads - so no good for working while away but OK for weather reports & emails. Hide

A great apartment in a fabulous location. That bay window ...wow we will miss that view! Really comfy and well equipped place and the golf and table tennis in the grounds were a hit too. Fabulous walks directly from the door as well as the rowing on the lake and short drives to kayaking, swimming and lovely towns.

A view over the lake to die for, a roomy well-appointed 2 bedroom apartment, modern kitchen, 2 ensuite bathrooms, great dining facilities, excellent quality plates and crockery, one of the best places I have stayed.
