Runswick Sands

We recently stayed in the Westminster apartment for 4 nights and overall had a lovely experience. The apartment was well equipped with everything we needed, clean in most areas, and in a fantastic location, making it the perfect base to explore the Lake District. The biggest positive was the host, who was absolutely amazing throughout our stay. They were always available, incredibly friendly, and genuinely went above and beyond whenever we needed anything. Their excellent communication and hospitality really made our trip even more enjoyable. There were, however, a couple of downsides. We noticed several cobwebs around the apartment with spiders in them, which suggested some areas hadn’t been cleaned thoroughly. The biggest issue was the noise from the apartment above. For three mornings in a row, from around 6am to 9am, the guests upstairs were stomping around, running back and forth, and making a lot of noise, which constantly woke us up. We informed the host, who quickly contacted the guests, and we really appreciated their efforts. Unfortunately, the noise continued, as the guests were inconsiderate of others staying in the building. Despite these issues, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay thanks to the excellent location, comfortable apartment, and exceptional host. We’d happily stay again and hope the cleaning and noise issues can be improved for future guests.

Unbelievable apartment!!! What a find, from the moment I found The Rockefeller on Expedia to arrival through to the end of the stay everything was the best!! Not going to gointo much detail as wouldn’t want to ruin anybody else’s experience but I will say you won’t be disappointed, everything about the apartment is funky, design led and luxurious from the furnishings to the artwork and even the kitchen and bathroom are of the highest spec. Centrally located with ample parking pretty much opposite and within a few minutes walk of the lake the apartment met and exceeded every expectation. As a little bonus just 50 yards away you’ll find a cafe, the Urban Food House, serving the best breakfast and coffees in the area, another great find. Should the owner ever decide to enter “4 in a bed” the competition will have a job on its hands to even come close to the Rockefeller. Last few words, book it, book it, book it, you’ll have the best time!!!!

Parking great. Easy check in. Clean tidy room.
