The Black Dog Apartment

Excellent comfortable rural stay

Pros: The apartment was excellent. Very clean, well maintained and well equipped. Everything was very comfortable and there were no nasty surprises. Very peaceful area but only 5 minutes drive from amenities. I loved lying in bed watching the sheep in the field opposite being fed their breakfast! I’d happily stay here again.

Cons: I was really disappointed to ask for a menu on the Friday evening and be told that the kitchen wasn’t open that night. I’d read that they served food on Fridays, and I’d planned my afternoon around getting back to relax and eat at the pub, which looks lovely. This meant I had to go back out in the dark at 7pm and search for a meal which I really didn’t need. The kitchen is very well equipped however, so if I stayed again I’d bring food and be prepared to cook.

Comfortable and stylish country apartment just outside Dalton.

Pros: Very comfortable bed, nicely decorated and spotlessly clean. The fresh milk in the fridge and toiletries in the bathroom were very thoughtful. I had smooth check-in process and the host was extremely responsive.

Cons: Everything was perfect, thank you!

Quiet location but easy reach of attractions, Bowness was within a 30 minute drive.

Pros: Everything we needed to enjoy our stay was on hand. Appreciated the breakfast cereals and milk being available free of charge. Apartment was within 30 minutes walk to the nearest train station at Dalton from where you could travel to Lancaster in under an hours journey. If you are staying on a Friday the burgers available in the adjacent pub are very tasty.

Amazing and comfortable

Pros: Was a wonderful cosy and comfy apartment. Very close to Lake District and easy driving access

Cons: Nothing - was perfect

Lovely accommodation with real care taken

Pros: Lovely clean place with all of the things you might need for a stay away. Really remote and peaceful area and the staff were lovely. There were lots of little touches that made it feel special, even down to the way the towels were folded like fans, which made it feel like the hosts take extra care of the property. Would come back again if we were in the area without a second thought.

Hidden gem in the lakes

Pros: Was in a beautiful area, out of the way but not too far out. Kitted out with everything you need and simply a lovely comfortable apartment. The staff were friendly and helpful. Food was delicious too would recommend to sample the burger night.

Cons: Nothing we didn't like.

A wonderful, cozy stay

Pros: The Apartment was private and wonderfully comfortable. The place was very clean and had every amenity needed for our stay. The host, Tom, was responsive and welcoming. There is a pub attached to the apartment but we heard no noise at all. Good to note that food is served at the pub Fridays-Sundays.
