Welcome to 16 Marina View at Windermere Marina Village. A luxuriously modern third floor apartment, comfortably sleeping 4 and complete with breath-taking marina and Lakeland fell views. Nestled in a quiet corner of Bowness on Windermere, could this be the perfect retreat for all your Lake District adventures?

Make your way up to the third floor via the lift, hang up your coat and leave your muddy boots behind. Light, bright and cosy all at once; step through into the spacious yes cosy apartment.

Wander through into the modern and airy open-plan kitchen-diner, a stylish space fitted with wood effect cabinetry and fully furnished for all your culinary pursuits. Treat yourself to a creamy coffee from the Nespresso machine, or whip up some delectable appetisers, pour bubbly for your loved ones, and unwind around the dining table.

Beyond the kitchen-diner is the contemporary lounge. Curl up on the cosy sofa; the perfect place to be after a long day on the hills. Spend your evening relaxing, watching TV or enjoying a board game with the whole family.

Slide open the floor to ceiling bi-fold doors and step out on to the private west facing balcony to enjoy breakfast alfresco on the bistro dining table.

Retreat back to the entrance hall to discover what else 16 Marina View has to offer. Sneak a peek at the twin bedroom straight ahead of you, a sumptuous space with gorgeous natural light and Lake District prints that adorn the walls. The room is completed by a wall-mounted TV, dressing table and wardrobe.

Next door you’ll find the sleek and stylish slate grey family bathroom, fitted with a sink, waterfall shower over bath tub and large mirror. Soak those aching feet from a day of fun-filled activities in a huge bubble bath with a glass of wine and a book… sounds dreamy right?

Lastly, discover the Master Bedroom - a gorgeous room serenely decorated in tones of sage grey, black and white Lake District artwork, a 50” TV and a colour pop occasional chair. This room boasts its own gleaming en-suite complete with a walk-in rainfall shower. Enjoy the cosy peace and quiet of this room, as the morning sun filters in through the marina view window.

There is one allocated covered car parking space is available in the garage area under the apartment block. Should you need an extra space, there are unreserved spaces available onsite.

Located in the heart of Bowness on Windermere, perfectly placed for the vibrant cafe bars and restaurants in the heart of the village. The world of Beatrix potter is just a ten-minute stroll away, along with Bowness escape rooms and an abundance of shops and activities. Take a walk up Brantfell, just a 20-minute stroll from your front door or take the lakeside walk around Cockshott Point.

A perfect stay again

This is the second time that we have stayed in this apartment. We absolutely love it! It was perfect for a family of four. The apartment is spacious and spotlessly clean. The kitchen is well-equipped and the appliances very easy to use. The view of the marina is perfect and the large balcony is a lovely place to relax. The walk into town is about 20 mins. There are a variety of routes but we prepared the walk next to the lake.

This is a lovely apartment, a good size, well appointed and in a nice location. The balcony is also a nice size and perhaps a quarter of it has cover from the the balcony above which is handy in wet weather. The view of the marina is the icing on the cake. We had a minor mishap and were impressed by how quickly it was sorted. Reception is well run, friendly and all are keen to help.
Although not a commment on the apartment, I will mention that we hired a mobility scooter for my wife but seemingly only had the choice of a boot scooter or a large one. We generally try and get a mid size one, small enough to get in the apartment but large enough for range and comfort. This time we hired a boot one and it was barely adequate for this location. I mention this as an aside for anyone with mobility issues.
Overall a very nice place to base a stay in this area.

We were very impressed with this apartment which comes with a fantastic car parking space. It was beautifully presented and we enjoyed every moment in the property . Although it was a little further out of Bowness than we usually stay, the walk to town was very pleasant via easy to access paths or along the edge of the lake in the day. The food in the on-site restaurant was very good. It is busy so you need to book. Looking forward to making a return to the village.well worth a stay here.

Our apartment was on the 3rd floor & had a lift to take all our bags up . The apartment was so clean & had everything you need for a comfortable stay . We had a very large balcony & even managed to sit on the balcony & have drinks in November . The bar on site is nice & serves food & seemed very busy . Great location & you could leave your car there for your duration & do lots of walks & walk into Bowness . Would highly recommend & was a lovely weekend

Very good apartment with great views over the marina. All facilities are of high quality and everything is well appointed. There is a pleasant walk by the lake into Bowness where there are lovely shops and easy access to lake activities. Would highly recommend the Beatrix Potter Museum and the Motor museum for children. All in all an excellent place to stay for easy access to the Lake District

We visit the lakes 3-4 a year and have stayed in the marina a few times before. We decided to stay in the new build apartments and have did not regretted a single thing

The apartment was outstanding. From the view across the marina, the allocated car bay underneath the building and the modern appliances I can not recommend enough

The apartment is spotlessly clean, bathrooms and showers are very powerful, WiFi and entertainment is fast with 60 inch tvs in every room

It’s very cosy and homely with small touches such as decent pillows, nice art in the walls, very comfortable beds, and a kitchen which is fully loaded with modern appliances

Apartments even has a lift making it easy when arriving and leaving for your luggage

Absolutely amazing apartment that was spotlessly clean on arrival. Location on the Marina was fantastic, from watching the boats coming in & out on the balcony, to a short walk into Bowness with all the conveniences it has to offer. We come to the lakes every year multiple times and would definitely stay here again!

Overall very good ...extremely well appointed, lovely afternoon and evening sun to the balcony. I would book again
Two comments for potential improvement:
It is good to have a lift, but something needs to be done about the clear glass outer lift door. Whereas the inner door opens automatically.... you are faced with outer door of clear glass that has to be pushed open . It is not obvious that there is this second door and consequently it is possible step right into the clear glass.
I did point this out to the office staff and suggested that there should be a 'line of sight' sign to make it clear that there is a door there to avoid walking into it......full marks to whoever keeps the glass so clean that it is not obvious
Secondly, again reported to the office ...the TV fails to show BBC 1 , 2 etc...fixed same day reported, but failed again after a few hours..reported again but not fixed .....these are helpful channels for local news and weather

Thank you for your review, as a valued repeat guest we're pleased to hear that you found the Marina View apartments well appointed. We really appreciate the feedback on the lifts, we will certainly look at options for indicators on the glass door. I'm sorry to hear that the television wasn't showing the BBC channels, I have raised the issue with our maintenance team and we have changed some of the options and settings within the TV that has now rectified this issue. We look forward to welcoming you back to Windermere Marina Village again soon!

Brilliant base of operations in the Lake District

The apartment itself was second to none. It was perfect for our young family, lovely, modern, clean, with all the amenities you could need. The balcony overlooking the marina was wonderful when it was sunny. Really superb stay, wouldn’t have any problem recommending it to others (in fact, I already have!) Thanks team!
