Lovely property in great location

We had a fantastic stay in Ambleside, largely due to the location of this property. A 5 minute walk from the centre of town and lots of restaurants and pubs but far enough away from the centre to be private. Amazing views. A little difficult to find in the first place but once we located it, all was good! Thank you!

Lovely stay

The accommodation was just as described and comfortably big enough for the 4 of us. Was great to be able to walk from the house onto the fells, to the lake and to the town. Lovely views as well.

February Half Term in Ambleside

We had a great week, the house has masses going for it, the view is great, it’s really convenient to pop into Ambleside but far enough away so it’s quiet. The beds are comfy, the house is warm and inviting, it has pretty much everything you need to be a home away from home. Thankyou

Great Cottage

Perfect spot for our stay in Ambleside. The view is amazing and it's a short walk to town. Will definitely look at staying here again when we return to the lakes.

Great location, stunning views

Good communication and great property, very near to Ambleside town centre, up a steep hill, but then you benefit from amazing views. We had a lovely stay, thank you

Excellent Location

Fantastic cosy base for our short stay. Great view, feels like a world away from civilisation but less than a five minute walk to Ambleside town centre. Five minutes in the opposite direction and we were onto the fells. Our host Linda was very helpful throughout.

Perfect location

Had a lovely stay. Views were stunning. Cottage is pretty basic but clean and has everything you need. The walk into Ambleside is only a few minutes which is perfect for grabbing groceries or going out for a meal. The host, Linda was great and answered any questions quickly. We would return.

Great property and location

Really good cottage only about 2 mins walk from centre of Ambleside. Had everything you need for a nice simple stay in the lakes. Great views from the front room over the hills. They’ve just had a car parking space put in which is very handy. Great communication with owner throughout. Would definitely come back.

Authentic cosy cottage in lakes

Ultimately the cottage seems to be a home to the owners how they like it. Cosy, practical & functional. Absolutely fine for us and accurately described - location really good & parking great for 1 vehicle we have a discovery and no problem. We took a fire stick down but you can’t link that up to the network, which was unusual- no porch for wet stuff, but you can see this from advert so again prepared for it. Anyway really enjoyed stay and would book again.

Blue Hill Road Cabin

The accommodations were comfortable. I recommend the address location be better labeled on the stone wall. The cab driver had difficulty finding Cabin 3. The stone wall hides the view of the cabin. The laundry from the previous tenants never got picked up and the red laundry bag sat on the front stoop all week. The outside views from the dining room window, kitchen, bathroom and bedrooms were splendid.

Charming Ambleside Stay

This rental was very comfortable, and a great spot for my family during our trip to Ambleside. The kitchen was small but appropriately equipped. We appreciated the games and puzzles on rainy days. And the view is stunning. Guests should be aware that there are no laundry facilities in this rental and the laundromat in town doesn’t have a change machine or a vending machine for detergent (It’s also pricy and busy).

Oct half term in Lakes

Very comfortable and warm property. Just what we needed during a wet and windy Oct half term. Cosy living/dining room with wonderful views from bay window onto fells. Very convenient location near central Ambleside. Kitchen was small but well kitted out. Couple of points to note: Not much storage space throughout for kitchen food or clothes in bedrooms and parking was tricky in the road a couple of times but can always park within 2 mins walk . We’d definitely come again.

The loveliest place

The cottage is practically in the village of Ambleside, with the bus stop nearby. I arrived late and the host put milk, bread and butter in the kitchen, very thoughtful. The cottage was very clean and filled with things I needed and things I didn’t know I needed. The view from the cottage is amazing. In the evening I sat in the seating area in front of the cottage watching the sun go down on the hills. I arrived late and the host put milk, bread and butter in the kitchen, very thoughtful. The cottage was very clean and filled with things I needed and things I didn’t know I needed. When I had a question Linda replied fast and friendly. What a lovely, lovely place.

Wonderful getaway at a well-appointed, comfortable cottage with beautiful views

Our family, me, my wife and our two sons (aged 18 and 15) had a memorable time at the property. We were blessed with warm and dry weather, which was cheering especially since the forecasts had promised rain, and we made the most of the location, driving out to Keswick one day, Grizedale on another and going for a long car tour of the North West lakes that included the awe-inspiring Whinlatter, Hardknot and Wrynose mountain passes. But for the rest of the week we walked from the cottage and say the lovely Stockghyll waterfall, the "Champion Tree" walk in the woods to the south of Ambleside, and we climbed up Loughriff Fell, the big hill opposite the cottage which afforded lovely views of Ambleside on the descent. And Ambleside itself is such a gem. Although busy, it has a enchanting charm. The cottage is so well appointed and so beautifully decorated, with comfortable furniture and aesthetically pleasing furnishings, it fitted our family so well. Cliff Coultart

Brilliant

Just about to leave. Unfortunately! What a brilliant time we have had. Location makes a holiday and this one could not be better for us. Turn right, about a min in to the town. Left, not long to the water. House was so comfy and surpassed expectations. The pics of the view doesn't do it justice. Also, dog owners there is a shared garden out the back. We didn't use it as mine was happy at the front with us but good to know. Linda the owner has been fantastic and quick to respond. So much to do and see. Going home knackered! Thanks Linda
