“It's a lovely apartment in a great location with everything we needed.”

However, the mould was a problem. The first thing we had to do was clean a large amount of black mould in the bedroom. From the staining we can see there's a mould problem in the living room and bedroom so in winter fresh mould should be cleaned prior to guests' arrival.

- James, November 2023

Thank you for letting us know you thought the apartment was lovely and for scoring us so highly. We are very sorry to hear about the mould issue. This should have been picked up by the cleaner/lettings agency on whom we rely as we live at some distance from the property. Please accept our sincere apologies. Property Owner Property Owner

Jude September 2023

“The property was a brilliant base for our holiday.”

We were impressed with how much was provided, we've stayed in self catering accommodation before that isn't set up for anyone to actually cook in it but the range of kitchen utensils and crockery were impressive. The apartment was comfortable and clean and a great location for our stay. We did wonder about the swimming pool which is on site in the building but not mentioned in any of the information? We had no issues with the parking space and were grateful for this as it meant we could leave the car and wander into Ambleside for the day. It would have been helpful to know the rules about no bikes in the building before we arrived as we did have bikes with us and ended up having to leave them in the car as we hadn't brought a bike lock to use the storage.

- Jude, September 2023

Many thanks you for your kind comments. We'll ask Lakelovers to notify guests prior to arrival re bike storage arrangements. The swimming pool is privately owned and belongs to the next door complex so it is not available for guests. Property Owner Property Owner

“Excellent accommodation!”

The apartment was comfortable and clean. Everything you would ever need was provided and all the things were in tip top condition.The only drawback was the car parking space which was minimal and difficult to manoeuvre into. We bashed the bumper a few times!

Tania July 2023

“The property's facilities and location were absolutely perfect.”

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would look to book again in the future. The only issue, which has been mentioned by others, was a faint smell of damp/mould in the bedroom and hall. Despite keeping the en-suite door closed and using the fan booster, the carpet also felt slightly moist. This may have been exacerbated by the rainy weather during our visit

- Tania, July 2023

We are pleased you thoroughly enjoyed your stay. Many thanks Property Owner Property Owner

Great apartment best one yet the only problem was getting down to the shops etc you have to take the car as my wife is disabled but she got there

Thank you very much for your review. We are pleased to hear you were able to get to enjoy the shops in Ambleside and hope you will return to our apartment in the future. Property Owner Property Owner
Catherine June 2023

“The apartment was really conveniently situated for Ambleside and the local area.”

It is beautifully furnished and a comfortable place to stay. Having two bathrooms was real luxury. However, the parking space is pretty tight, aggravated by the building work currently taking place opposite it. Vans and lorries are constantly in the way during the week and they made it even harder to park in a small space. The apartment could do with a fresh lick of paint in the bedroom where there are two distinct shades of white. It looks like damp patches might have been painted over at some point in the past. Whilst the apartment was fine, there was a very odd smell in the corridor outside and evidence of some sort of leak as a wall had been newly plastered over, but not painted, and the carpet was stained. These are minor points and overall we enjoyed our stay. The small patio outside was lovely in the sunshine, and we thoroughly enjoyed the ability to just stroll into Ambleside or Waterhead.

- Catherine, June 2023

We are pleased you enjoyed your stay and found the apartment well situated and comfortable. The Managing Agents are responsible for the communal areas of the building such as the corridor and the points raised by you have either been attended to or are in hand. Property Owner Property Owner
Michelle June 2023

“This is a very comfortable, well looked after property with a beautiful outlook over the rooftops of the town and the surrounding hills.”

The outdoor patio is perfect for sunny weather and the apartment is nice and spacious. It's a very central location and easy to do lovely walks from the doorstep and well served by buses to get around the rest of the Lakes. We had a great week, helped by the fantastic weather.

- Michelle, June 2023

Thank you so much for your kind comments. We are glad that you enjoyed everything that the property and area have to offer, even better that the weather was so idyllic. Lakelovers Owner Relations Property Owner
Mark June 2023

“Lovely accomodation.”

Very high standards. Large comfortable bed. Kitchen very well equiped. Very clean and nicely decorated. Clear instructions on various aspects of the property. Super quick access to the centre of Ambleside plus walks from the door. Great views across The Fells. The weather was really good which allowed us to sit in the sunshine on the terrace. We had a lovely week and would definately look to book this property again.

- Mark, June 2023

Very pleased you had such a good holiday and thank you very much for the great review. Look forward to welcoming you back to High Pike in the future. Property Owner
Steve May 2023

“Parking was the main issue.”

It has parking, but very difficult to get in and out of. The listing was not very accurate. The unit had a washer dryer, but that was not listed.

- Steve, May 2023

Thank you for your comments. We will take a look at the property description to ensure it is up to date. We take all comments on board. The Lakelovers Owner Relations Team Property Owner
Debbie April 2023

“Great apartment in a super location.”

Ambleside has plenty of eateries and walks from your doorstep. Great to sit and watch the sunset over Loughrigg. Just be aware of the tight access and parking.

- Debbie, April 2023

Many thanks for your feedback which is much appreciated - so pleased you had a good holiday and we hope to welcome you back in the future Property Owner
Charmaine March 2023

“Brilliant stay at high pike and the views are just stunning!”

The facilities at high pike are great, they have thought of everything! The apartment is a great layout and easily accessible. We enjoyed watching all the birds in the morning and wish they had a bird feeder on the patio. The bed is very firm but the duvet was extremely comfortable. The parking is very tight which makes it difficult to unpack and pack up the car. We will definitely be returning, this apartment is in the perfect location of Ambleside. Thank you for your hospitality.

- Charmaine, March 2023

Thank you for your kind comments, we are pleased to hear that you had an enjoyable stay at High Pike. We hope to welcome you back again. Property Owner
Alexander March 2023

“Reported incident on arrival to maintenance, re sharp metal light fitting fell off the wall and cut my wife’s hand which was on the door handle.”

Could have been more serious if it had landed on her face. Also first three Red Wine glasses had lipstick smears and had to be re washed. But apart from this we had a great holiday and the apartment, which we have used thrice is perfect. Hope to return.

- Alexander, March 2023
Vivien February 2023

“Beautiful apartment in very good location in Ambleside.”

“High Pike is a great place to stay.”

The owners have thought of everything to cater for their guests comfort - it works so well. We had a lovely New Year with a brilliant vantage point from the property to watch the fireworks! Would definitely recommend and would love to return. Thanks

Paula November 2022

“Generally the property was clean but the oven hadn't been cleaned and there were used baking trays in it when I went to cook the first evening, just little things like dust on the door cornices made the place look a bit grubby.”

You probably know already but there is mould in the bedroom above the bed.

- Paula, November 2022

We were not aware of any of these issues (which have now been dealt with). We live at some distance from the property and have to rely on our lettings agency to clean and maintain the property. We are taking this up with them. Please accept our apologies. Property Owner

“Wonderful property in a perfect location with everything you could ask and more.”

Ruby July 2022

“It was our best stay in Ambleside or any AirBnb ever.”

Very tasteful furnished. Nothing we missed. We felt actually at home. It was very clean and it felt like recently refurbished. The only downside are the windows, that you actually can not leave them open during the night as they tilt/open to the wrong direction in the bedroom. Luckily it was not toooo warm, so we could cope. But we love to sleep with open windows. So we missed that. But other than that an absolute joy to stay in your apartment. We'll try to book it again if we come again to Ambleside.

- Ruby, July 2022

Many thanks for the lovely review. We look forward to seeing you again! Property Owner

Gordon May 2022

“A very nice property conveniently located in Ambleside.”

A short stroll down a very steep path takes you to the shops and restaurants and also onto the route to visit the waterfalls. The property is modern and very comfortable, an added bonus is the small garden area which we enjoyed in the late afternoon sunshine.

- Gordon, May 2022

Many thanks for your positive feedback! The apartment is west facing so it does get the afternoon/evening sun - very glad you enjoyed it! Property Owner
Elif April 2022

“We stayed here as a couple for 6 nights and this was our first visit to the Lake district.”

Pros: The kitchen has everything you could need, nothing seems to be missing. The bedroom and the living room have large windows with lots of light and nice view of the hills. This is main reason I chose this place, it would be delightful to sit in the garden in the nice summer days. No noise from the street. It is 5 minutes of walk to the city of Ambleside (a very short steep path on the way back). There is a large Tesco, bakery, Mexican food take away place in the walking distance. You can walk in 15 minutes to the lake, there is a park with Roman ruins. The mattress is high quality and comfortable. It was completely clean when we arrived (maybe some minor dust). Cons: The parking is only appropriate for a small car and there was one day a large SUV had parked behind our car and it was difficult to get out of the parking lot.

- Elif, April 2022

Thank you very much for your positive comments. Ambleside is notoriously short of parking and many properties cannot offer it at all. We are sorry you experienced difficulty on this occasion. Property Owner
Ruth March 2022

“High Pike is a wonderful place to stay with just a few negatives as below: No cafetière.”

The bed squeaks (on side nearest shower room). Nowhere to put toiletries in shower cubicle, just a simple metal hanging crate would do it. Apart from these tiny issues we found the property exceptional and intend to return. Thank you.

- Ruth, March 2022

Thank you for your comments. We have replaced the missing cafetiere - sorry it wasn't around for your stay. We've also taken on board your other comments. Property Owner
Vivien March 2022

“A very comfortable, warm, well equipped apartment.”

Ideally situated with fantastic views across the fells, with easy access to the little town of Ambleside with its many outdoor shops and eating and drinking venues! It's central position in The Lakes is ideal to enable many walks straight from the door or accessing walks by car in any direction. Have visited 4 times and will definitely be back to enjoy another holiday! Thank you!!

- Vivien, March 2022

Thank you for visiting so many times! We are very pleased that you want to do so again - we look forward to welcoming you back Property Owner

Despite the 3 storms we had during our stay it was very comfortable and warm and despite the rain we managed to do many walks around the area with one walk very close (Stock Ghyll Force)

“A wonderful week in a wonderful.”

Jacqueline November 2021

“On the downside the parking was extremely tight as has extre large SUV’s.”

I phoned Lakelovers as we had water dripping down the corners of the bedroom which we have photos of also the rad in the bedroom wasn’t working (error 30 overheating). I have heard nothing from you thus far. Needless to say we enjoyed our stay and overall the apartment was very good.

- Jacqueline, November 2021

Thank you for your feedback. We were very sorry to hear about the problems you encountered but pleased to hear you enjoyed your stay and overall considered the apartment very good. The Dimplex heater was newly installed in June and there should not have been a problem. It has now been replaced with another new heater.. As soon as we became aware of the water on the walls action was taken to seek to remedy the situation. Property Owner
Helen September 2021

“Lovely accommodation and very well equipped.”

What would have made it absolutely perfect would be if the shrubs outside were pruned a bit. They are currently a bit high and partially obscure the view of the fells. Thank you.

- Helen, September 2021
Jeremy July 2021

“Lovely apartment, very spacious and an excellent view extending towards high peak and Loughrigg.”

The view is slightly diminished by the overgrown hedgerow opposite the living room windows. The finish of the apartment is excellent with two newly refurbished bathrooms, a large and comfortable bed and smart living area. The pillows were too soft, but this is more our preference. The apartment has a spacious terrace which was a welcome addition on a sunny afternoon, post a long walk! The patio furniture has seen slightly better days and could benefit from replacement. The kitchen is spacious but lacks some essentials that we would expect to find in a holiday let, particularly one pitching at the upper end. For example, there is no washing machine, despite there being a clothes airer! This would be very helpful to those who are on longer stays in order to wash walking attire. There was also no cafetière and a lack of usable oven trays. The position is superb and a short walk down a very steep hill takes you to the centre of Ambleside and many restaurants and shops. Whilst there is an allocated parking space, it is incredibly tight and if others don’t park in their space, you can be left without anywhere to park. This happened to us and another owner was less than helpful in trying to resolve the issue. This was disappointing. Overall, a lovely place to stay in a brilliant location to enable good exploration of all the lakes have to offer.

- Jeremy, July 2021
Michael July 2021

“Accessing the apartment was very difficult and not as in the instructions.”

The lady in the facility building next door was extremely unhelpful considering I think she worked for Lakelovers. I had to ring up to gain access and needed another code to access the building to allow us to get our keys from the key box,. We even had to help the couple next door gain access to their apartment.

- Michael, July 2021
Ben April 2021

“Sykes - Our experience with Sykes wasn't great.”

We tried to call them before our holiday to ask about the property and COVID arrangement and was unable to get through to them and no ability to leave a message. I did receive a voicemail, but on ringing back was again not to connect or leave a message. On arrival, the towels in the property had a bad smell. We were again unable to reach anyone at Sykes, or on the number for the caretaker (appeared to divert to the same number for Sykes). After trying multiple ways, we were only able to contact them via the app. The towels were replaced the next day. The Property - First to good things, this property is in a great location. A short walk down a very steep hill and you are right in the centre of Ambleside. Great views over the hills, in a quiet part of the town. Can't fault the location. However, a number of areas with the property itself could make it much better. Firstly the parking. The car park is in a busy cul-de-sac and the car park spaces are very narrow. We don't have a large car and are used to tight parking, but on more than one occasion we could not park without blocking ourselves or other cars. Parking a large car would be problematic and challenging for those uncomfortable with parking. The other main problem was the kitchen equipment, it is very basic and limited. For example, only 2 bowls, one water glass, few pans, very blunt knives & equipment. Photos show a cafetière, which was not there. Given most options for food are still closed due to COVID restrictions, we ate in most nights - the facilities really did not help this. Additionally, we were accessing the property via the patio doors due to the main access closed due to COVID. It would have been nice to provide some additional mats for muddy boots, wet umbrellas etc. Also there is no washing machine, unusual for a self-catering property. This was not on the listing we discovered, but unusual not to have one. Overall, we expected better. Great we were able to go, but more effort could have been made to accommodate for the COVID situation we are still in and better communication from Sykes.

- Ben, April 2021

Thank you for your feedback, we are thrilled that you were pleased with the location and surroundings. We are very sorry to hear your comments regarding the lack of cutlery and crockery at the property, these have been reduced due to Covid but we apologise that you did not find the amount left sufficient. With regards to the property not having a washing machine, this is stated on the website as you mention but we are taking this feedback on board and will look into adding this to the property. We really appreciate your comments and we hope that these issues do not deter you from staying with us again. Best wishes. Property Owner

The lounge is bright and airy with two comfortable sofas that compete with each other for the best view from the large floor to ceiling patio doors. For cosy evenings in, the large flat screen Smart TV is ideal for relaxing with a film or your favourite TV show. Stepping out onto the patio there are beautiful views high above the rooftops to Loughrigg Fell, the Langdales, the Coniston Fells or Fairfield and there is no better place to sit and relax with a glass of wine as the sun sets in the evening. Returning to the lounge/dining area the family dining table is an ideal spot to enjoy a hearty breakfast or a romantic dinner for two.

Easily accessible on the northern shores of Lake Windermere, Ambleside is a contemporary, characterful Lakeland village with a spectacular backdrop of Lake District fells. The location is ideal for walking in the Lake District, with many renowned routes beginning in and around the village. But Ambleside is also a popular choice for a relaxed, slow-paced holiday. Contemporary shops, leisurely lake cruises, acclaimed Lake District restaurants and cosy traditional pubs make the village centre a delight at any time of year. For evening entertainment, you'll find plenty to suit every taste. Try the popular Fulling Mill restaurant, in a superbly converted saw mill, for a special evening out. Or, take your pick from the two quirky cinemas; Zeffirellis cinema includes a great pizzeria and live jazz bar. Fellinis has an excellent vegetarian restaurant and shows films in a relaxed studio cinema environment. You'll also find a wide range of pubs, serving hearty food and real Lakeland ale - notable for its lake shore setting is the Wateredge Inn. Windermere Lake Cruises depart from Waterhead Pier, just outside Ambleside village centre. The elegant 'steamers' offer regular trips to Bowness and Lakeside - a great way to explore without driving. Evening cruises are also available, sometimes with buffet meals and live music.

About the location

AMBLESIDE

Grasmere 4.4 miles; Windermere 4.7 miles; Keswick 16.7 miles.

Lying at the northern tip of Lake Windermere, England’s largest lake, Ambleside makes a superb base for touring the central Lakes, with Grasmere and the Langdale Valley just a short drive away. There is plenty to do here - cruises, boat trips and watersports on Lake Windermere itself and numerous shops, restaurants and pubs in the village to suit all tastes. On the lakeside at Waterhead, the parkland offers lovely views down the lake and a short stretch of beach, whilst a walk in the other direction, following Stock Ghyll through woodland, will bring you to the entrancing waterfall of Stock Ghyll Force. Along with the Lake and the great walking on offer, Ambleside is also famous for its annual rushbearing ceremony and the diminutive 17th century “Bridge House” - one of the most photographed buildings in the Lake District and now the National Trust Information Centre.

Please note this property has a zip link bed. This will be made as a super king by default. Please contact the call centre should you wish it to be two single beds.
