Great house, great location, great hosts! Laik made the process a breeze from start to finish, perfect place for a relaxing break away. Nothing was too much for them and the house is spacious, tasteful and spotlessly clean.★★★★★
We had a fantastic stay and will definitely be back, the flat was lovely and clean and had everything we needed. The location is perfect too!★★★★★
The apartment was just perfect. Equipped with all the essentials needed and spotlessly clean. Set in a very peaceful location, but only a short walk into Bowness. Communication with Laik were excellent, even providing us with a handy guide to the apartment and local area. We hope to return. Highly recommend.★★★★★
Absolutely fantastic apartment. Beautifully decorated and stocked with everything you could need. Very comfortable bed and sofa. We wish we could have stayed longer!! Laik were excellent hosts; very quick to respond to messages and the check in and out process was very easy and hassle free. We would definitely recommend booking here!!★★★★★
Laik were indeed super hosts! Before we even got there we extended our stay and we are so glad we did. The flat was perfect and in a great location for our first Lake District getaway. Their guide was very helpful and had some great recommendations for things to do and places to eat. We are already eager to rebook with Laik for our next Lake break.★★★★★
Due to the lovely hosts communication, the gorgeous apartment itself and its great location, we would highly recommend this place. We stayed for 5 nights for my husband's birthday and it was such a relaxing time, and we felt very much at home.★★★★★
These hosts are amazing -- they responded so quickly and with such kindness when I had questions! The flat is stylish and comfortable, with a trail across the street and a great view from the back windows. Loved our stay!95% of our 4000+ guests rated us 5/5

MAKE IT POP
We design. We develop.
One of our favourite parts of the job is making a property stand out from the crowd. From décor makeovers to Nordic hot-tubs, we create holiday homes that feel like home, and ones that get booked over and over again.

Hillcrest is just a short stroll from the centre of Bowness 🥾😍
Which means lakeside walks, café pit‑stops and evening pub plans are all very easy to come by! With room for up to 4 guests, it`s close enough to the action, but tucked away enough to switch off when you want to.
Sounds dreamy, doesn`t it?
