    “We asked via e mail and telephone for the twin bed to be made up as one.”

    This didn’t happen. This is my only little gripe. The house is perfect. Beautiful decor and furniture. Well equipped kitchen with everything you need. Spotlessly clean. Lovely beds, great pillows. Modern wet room. White fluffy towels. Toasty hot heating system , ambulance of hot water.Beautiful views. Quiet. You can walk into Ambleside. Owners have left lots of information on walks. It was idyllic. We so enjoyed, thank you so much for sharing this beautiful property with us. May I just suggest an outdoor light as you enter porch, it was very dark when we arrived. Instructions on use of heating. Clarity as to which garage belongs to Jenever cottage. I hope you will take these comments as recommendations and are in no way complaints. We didn’t want to leave!

    Hi Sian Thank you for the feedback. What a pity that the beds were not joined together. I hope that this didn’t spoil your stay. I will ask Sykes to keep a closer eye on guest requests. I have noted your comments and will look into an outside light. Thank you for pointing this out to us. The garage is going to have a door fitted imminently so there will be a number on the door but I agree it is unclear currently. I hope you decide to come back and stay again, you are very welcome. Best wishes Danielle Property Owner

The property

Jenever Cottage is a lovely three-storey property resting in the prestigious Falls area on the outskirts of Ambleside, Cumbria.

Located in the heart of the Lake District National Park and with proximity to countless towns and villages for day trips this home is a wonderful choice to explore the tourist attractions of the Lakes.

After a day of high-level fell walks, put your feet up in the first-floor sitting room, open up the balcony doors to let in the fresh breeze of the countryside, or take some drinks outside and enjoy the last of the evening sun surrounded by your loved ones.

The kitchen/diner is appointed with everything you could need for a break away, including a washer/dryer if your adventures take off on a muddier route.

Head to the second floor and discover the beautifully-presented bedrooms for you to rest in, along with a bathroom you can freshen up in ahead of your adventures.

Outdoor enthusiasts will find many walks from the door and down the hill towards Stockghyll, an area of pretty woodland and cascading waterfalls.

Ambleside is close by and retains a unique atmosphere whilst offering a range of independent shops, numerous cafés, pubs, restaurants and two cinemas for those rainy days.

Take yourself further afield and enjoy the stunning scenery on the Windermere cruisers before jumping off and exploring the quintessential villages of Bowness and Ulverston.

A stay at Jenever Cottage promises a delightful retreat, at any time of year.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £200.

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.
