Askam-in-Furness Apartments

This is an excellent place to stay. In fact I'll say I had the best experience I've had on AirBnB. Paul is an excellent fellow - you can tell immediately - and you are sure to have a great time staying with him. I'll need to go back and do some walking in Barrow - and maybe have another couple of pints with Paul. The room is quirky and comfortable with everything you need plus some great views. I parked right outside the front door and the area seemed safe. That's it really, many thanks to Paul - I'll be back.

Felt very welcomed and accommodated. Paul was an extremely hospitiple and friendly host. The place was even nicer than the photos and he's cat is a gem.

Paul is an exceptional host who went the extra mile for me and my guests. One of us was extremely sick and Paul went as far as booking us a Dr's appointment and then occupying the other guest with a personal tour of the lakes! He also picked us up from the train station and dropped us off when it was time to leave, without us having to ask! He is a brilliant guy and will definitely be returning to his flat for another stay in Dalton in the future. The flat is very accommodating and the view from the top is beautiful. It is very cozy and spacious as well. Very true to the pictures and post. he is also a great resource for great places to dine, places to see, and things to do. Thank you for being one of the best highlights of our trip :)!

Paul instantly made me feel welcome by showing me round his place, and making sure he answered all my questions. A really nice bloke, happy to chat or to leave you alone, whichever is your preference. I was staying 3 nights on business, so it was good to know that I could use washing machine, fridge etc if I needed to. The room looks exactly like it is in the picture with its own microwave and kettle, and was a very nice area to spend evenings in. Nice views over the rooftops of the town and gets plenty of natural light. The neighbourhood was fine, very handy for the leisure centre and just a couple of strides to local restaurants. All in all, a most enjoyable stay.

Paul offers more of an apartment than a just bedroom, with a kitchenette area and a lounge / living area. Nicely furnished and comfortable, and I enjoyed my stay there. Paul is very friendly and helpful. I am sure that I will stay there again. Many thanks!

This was excellent value for money. Paul was a fantastic host and the space was very large! Everything we expected and needed to hand!

The room is a spacious top floor room with a great view, next to the center of the town! Lots of great hikes and views are just a short drive away! But the best part of our stay was the host. Paul really made us feel welcome and made sure we had the best time! He showed us around town and where we could do some good hikes around the lakes. He even brought us there. We loved our stay there and it was a shame we were only traveling through, would have loved to stay longer.

The host canceled this reservation 19 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.

This review is for the 2 bed apartment as due to a mistake at their end they had already put other guests in the 3 bed apartment. Luckily one of our party had had to drop out at the last minute so we were able to manage with 2 bed apartment Having said this Victoria responded to my message to this effect within a couple hours to apologise and agree to reduce the price to that of the smaller apartment. The apartment is as or better than described. It has a beautiful stained glass panel on the front door and has a large living room and spacy open planned kitchen with breakfast bar adjoining. The bedrooms are a good size and both with on suite shower room with toilet and washbasin. There is an additional WC room in the corridor utility room with washing machine, ironing board etc. Beds and sofas are very comfortable and there is a large screen TV in the living room (about 36 inches at a guess) and a small one with built in dvd in one of the bedrooms. The apartment is only a short walk from the town centre and close to the small castle (open only occasionally - check website or notice on castle) in a small courtyard and had access to an outside dining area and good sized lawn. There are good pubs, restaurants and take-aways in the town which is accessible by car to the coast and lake district. When we spoke to Victoria she was very helpful. We had a lovely stay, thank you.

Photos were accurate and the place was spacious. The property was cleaned everyday. Cute small town and close to the Lake District.

The property is spacious but feels like it's been rather cheaply done (all taps are wobbly on basins!). Good location in the town centre if you can deal with the traffic noise. But make sure you get the property you think you've booked. However daily housekeeping is an added bonus.

It was a pleasure as usual,

A little gem, tucked away in the peaceful countryside with fantastic views over looking the estuary in the distance. Surrounded by cows, horses and birds along with sheep running up the street being moved from one field to another. Yvonne was very helpful and friendly and nothing was too much trouble.

Yvonne's place was great. Quiet and off the beaten track. Yvonne was a gracious host, having had to wait up for our late arrival. She even had some essentials (milk, croissants, etc.) ready for us in case we hadn't eaten beforehand. The apartment was bigger than expected and on the odd sunny day, breakfast on the balcony is to die for. I'll certainly go back to Yvonne's when I need a quiet getaway.

Was a really good get away and the views was amazing. Would love to go back again

Yvonne is informative and knowledgeable of her area and makes sure she gives best advice.

What a wonderful way to begin our Airbnb adventure! Yvonne provided exactly what was advertised - a warm, inviting home to return to after a long day in the outdoors. Everything was beautifully set up for our comfort, we were close to all the highlights of the Lakes District and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Yvonne provided service above and beyond, waiting in to collect our lost suitcase and helping sort out our next booking. We can't praise her helpfulness and consideration enough. We would highly recommend a stay with Yvonne - a host in a million!

Everything was as described. It was a wonderful quite farmhouse with a full flat and everything we needed for a week long stay. It was a quiet place to enjoy the Lake District, and a good location to come home every evening from our day trips. Yvonne was courteous, and helpful the entire time.

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed staying at the farmhouse! The apartment was lovely, the continental breakfast was delicious (complete with fresh fruit, jam, and their own honey from the farm) and Yvonne made us feel at home with her gracious and generous hospitality and her sweet spirit! Thank you Yvonne for the wonderful stay last weekend!

A lovely home, so clean and comfy and the church structure was so unique. Great location and free parking. The second bathroom/loo was a bonus. Loved it!

Lovely spacious apartment in a good location. Very clean and tidy as described and in the photos. Sukanya was very helpful with instructions and making me feel welcome. I've already booked to stay again.

Sukanya's flat was well-appointed and absolutely immaculate, in an position that's ideal for the South Lakes area. She was a great host in terms of her communication/helpfulness. We were really happy with our choice, and think there will be plentiful interest from others. Thoroughly recommended.

We had a fantastic time in Ulverston, in an ideal location near to the sea and the lakes. Ulverston has its own history, with places to visit. For a small town it has an amazing variety of different restaurants. Amigos being one of our favourite. The apartment had the 'WOW' factor, beautifully kept with all the amenities that we needed. Thank you for our stay in your home, we would love to visit again.

Sukanyna's flat is a perfect base for exploring the Cumbrian coast and hills, and with easy access to the main lakes, Cumbrian towns and Cartmel race course. It's also walking distance to the centre of quaint Ulverston. The flat's parking space is very handy and secure and you can park very close to the entrance for carrying luggage. The flat is very spacious, exceptionally clean, comfortable and well-appointed, quiet, private and with plenty of hot water, two showers and a separate bath. Everything is a very high standard and works perfectly. All the arrangements for arrival and departure worked perfectly. Sukanyna was very helpful with my questions and responded swiftly to these. We had a very relaxing, perfect break in this flat and will definitely stay here again if the flat is available. Thank you! Elaine

3rd time staying and just as nice. Very clean and tidy and nice place to relax after a long day at work.

Very spacious apartment, beautifully decorated and furnished and well equipped. It is in a great location, a short walk from the town centre which has several good eating places and plenty of shops. A very good base for accessing the Lake District. Sukanya provided all the necessary information for our stay

Sukanya was super responsive and helpful. Her place is great and has plenty of room for 4 adults. A lovely house which was just as well as it non-stop rained whilst we were in the lakes so a nice place to chill !

Brilliant house, very well maintained, spacious, and above all a very humble / Extremely helpful hosts who ensured the stay was very comforting and made us all feel home from the first minute. Hats off to the hosts and their property. His enthusiasm to help us enjoy the trip with customized itinerary made for us the night we landed, which helped us get best value of our trip. A must visit for anyone who is planning Lake District.

Ian's flat is both spacious and airy as well as cosy and warm. It is comfortable and well furnished. We stayed on a bright spring weekend and we thought the flat would make a great base in all seasons. It is 2 mins walk to the centre of ulverston one way and two mins walk to the foot of Hoad Hill footpath on the other. In other words, its in a great spot! A warm welcome from Ian and we would definitely return.

Ian was very friendly and approachable, offered to carry our bags upstairs, and had provided the basics for the stay and a nice unexpected breakfast. The servants quarters is finished to a very high standard, very spacious and comfortable. The lack of parking could be an issue for some but the public car park is only a stone's throw away. Lots of nice places to eat near by. Great value to house 6 people who could stay here very comfortably. Would definitely recommend

Ideal location at the end of Market St in Ulverston, out the door straight into the town yet still quiet at night. The flat felt newly decorated, lovely and clean. Staircase up to bedroom was very steep but once up there room was large with wonderfully comfy bed. Will definetly return. Code for door sent in plenty of time and car park around the rear very handy for dropping luggage off.

The flat was immaculate and very comfortable. We were only there one night, but it was a wonderful place to bed down after a long day out in the Lakes! Would definitely recommend.

The accommodation is great, perfect for a weekend away exploring the local area.

This is a big house with some nice interiors, parking is a bit of a struggle but the house is very very well maintained.

Diana replies quickly. The house is newly decorated. The location is very close to the car park and supermarkets. Overall, highly recommend!!

I had a great experience at this accomodation. Location,room,host… everything was very nice!!!!

A nice apartment. Clean, nicely furnished, wi-fi signal perfect, lovely location, host communication/helpfulness great. Only problem we had was that the heaters weren't working properly and that it was very noisy from the wind during the night (but Diana can't control the weather).

The house was neat and clean. Exactly as depicted in the pictures. However on our checked in day, due to a road diversion to ulverston we got to reroute for almost 2 hours to get to nordiac suites as we are not familar with the roads. Plan ahead of your journey as there may be unexpected roadblocks.

Really nice flat, very clean and comfortable. In a good area for local amenities. Diana was very helpful and I would happily stay here again.

Fantastic suite , very clean and spacious, great location and facilities.

Diana was a wonderfully helpful host. She responded to any request or need that I had. The flat is welcoming, clean and comfortable and so very conveniently located.

Great - well kept and spacious. Instant coffee as well as biscuits were provided.

Very clean and tidy apartment in a hreat location. Host was very accomodating

Lovely wee flat, enjoyable stay.

Although Karen was away at the time she replied promptly to my queries which made my stay go very smoothly. The flat was clean and tidy and the location was perfect. Thanks Karen!
