8 / 10Excellent·Nov 2026
Amazing location and beautiful, characterful property with superb views. Lovely under floor heating, cosy log burner and well proportioned bedrooms both with attractive en-suites.
The lack of hot water! This was such a pity as, coming off a day on the fells we all wanted to enjoy a hot shower but there was barely enough hot water for two people let alone the 4 in our party. This was before we even thought about having a bath! We absolutely loved the property but this was a significant issue and a disappointment. I think the size of the hot water tank was such that it could not provide adequate hot water. Such a shame. Also, the plug in the bathroom en-suite sink was faulty and would not allow water to drain away without being manually held open. I think this would be an easy fix.

The house was in a nice quiet location, very clean and tidy with nice views and the car park was convenient, also a short drive from so many stunning, bucolic locations
Finding the house was difficult, it is up a small lane that is overgrown and with no sign posts. No medium/large frying pan. And, although there are signs saying the rear door can be used for access, we were respectfully informed that this is not the case and it is the private property of the neighbours. I consider these issues negligible compared with the pleasant surrounding villages, beautiful walks, and stunning views and lakes.

Was a nice cozy little cottage we enjoyed our stay
The main bed was very uncomfortable needs a new mattress
6 / 10Average·May 2021
The location of this property is excellent, although it's a 20min walk into Ambleside town centre. The view, overlooking the lake from the dining room window is gorgeous and there's a trail right outside the front door that leads up to Todd Crag - excellent views. The bathtub is huge and the beds are comfy. The kitchen is well equipped.
This residence was advertised as having wifi and it does not, this resulted in me losing two days of annual leave as I had planned to work while in the Lake District. There was a fair bit of dust around the main bedroom and lounge. The furniture in the lounge was old and dirty. There was no hand wash provided in either of the bathrooms. It was too expensive for what is was to be honest and we won't stay again.
