I had a great stay,I booked the unit a day before my arrival and once booked I received all the check in info immediately, no key was needed all acess is through a keypad system which is nice.The unit was very spacious and cozy,I really liked the kitchen set-up,Carlisle is a wonderful city and fun to explore and the apartment was only a 5 minute walk to the train station.
The location is excellent, close to the city center. The parking opportunities are limited, fortunately unloading and loading is possible in the street of the location. The apartment is well equipped and sizable. However, the windows pf apartment 3 are facing an inner court with a venting system of a restaurant. It produces strong kitchen smells during most of the day. It should be discussed with the owner how to reduce the smells (with scrubs, perhaps).

Ideaal en historisch appartement in Carlisle
Een pracht van een appartement in een met zorg gerestaureerd gebouw dat ooit begon als onderdeel van de bescheiden wolindustrie.
The Old Woolhouse ligt aan een rustig straatje op een steenworp van de drukkere straten.
Bezoek de in bont zandsteen opgetrokken kathedraal en het aan de noordkant van de stad gelegen kasteel dat centraal staat in de Engels Schotse geschiedenis.
Carlisle is een ideale springplank voor de bezoeken aan het Lake District.

Close to city center
The property is very spacious, and well maintained. The updated bathroom is my favorite. The location is only 2 blocks away from city center. Very convenient location. Free street parking is available between 6pm and 8:30am. Otherwise there is paid parking one block away. Another appliance I wish it had is a laundry machine. This is the second leg of our 2 weeks long trip. Having a laundry machine would make a huge difference.
