“The property was lovely and presented nicely.”

You need to get Lakelovers to listen to your customers. Twice we have stayed and in both occasions the second bedroom was left as a double bed despite being requested to be two singles. I even called a few days in advance to ask on this second visit that this be remembered and resolved. Yet on arrival, still it was a double. I called Lakelovers and a lovely house keeping lady came and sorted it, but bless her she shouldn’t have to do that. Plus I was lucky, I got there on a Friday at 4:20pm, if I had been after 5pm what chance would I have had? Love the property, We will be back, just not impressed with Lakelovers since they sold out to Sykes.

Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review further to your recent stay with us at Larna Place, although I was really disappointed to read your comments regarding the beds being incorrectly configured for you on both occasions you have been. Please accept our sincere apologies for this inconvenience. We have discussed this with our housekeeping team who manage the property on behalf of the owner and will ensure this does not happen again for any future stays you have with us. Kind Regards, The Lakelovers Owners Team Property Owner

“Larna Place exceeded our expectations.”

Location was perfect and the house provided all the home comforts. We certainly hope to return some time. Thank you.

“Fantastic apartment, very clean, well equipped and it really is just a short level walk into Ambleside.”

The beds are extremely comfortable and better than those in some hotels we have stayed in recently. We were a little concerned about the potential traffic noise as it is on the main road, but this wasn't a problem at all. The only small negative for us is that the sofas were very low, but this is just personal preference due to our above average heights and age, and I am sure they are fine for most people. Eleven nights was not enough and we could have happily stayed for longer. Very happy overall and are likely to book again in warmer weather as we want to sit outside on the lovely terrace.

“Tired bed linen and towels.”

Sykes seems to pay less attention to cleanliness than Lakelovers had. Lack of toilet roll in cottage. First time ever in 20 years considering using another booking agent.

“Great place in a great location.”

Could ideally do with a second bathroom or toilet.

“Fantastic stay in this lovely property located just a short walk from beautiful Ambleside.”

We were lucky with the weather so spent lots of time on the terrace enjoying the view. The whole property was top spec with lovely furnishings and artwork. We could have easily spent another week here and will definitely be back!

“This is the 2nd time of staying at Larna Place, it's just perfect for us.”

Ideally situated on the outskirts of the town, close enough to walk to for evening meals and provisions. Fantastic walks literally from the doorstep (we used the car once to go to Keswick!) So even the car had a restful week! A beautiful property, I would definitely book again. Thank you.

The village centre of Ambleside is just a five-minute walk from the cottage with a great array of local shops, popular restaurants and cafes and welcoming Lakeland pubs. Lake Windermere is a mile from the cottage and walks of all standards abound. Accommodation in Detail The front door opens to the hallway with plenty of space for coats and boots before entering the bright and smart open plan living accommodation. Comfortable sofas are arranged around the central coffee table and smart TV and French doors open from here to the patio with outdoor dining furniture making a lovely spot to sit and relax over a morning coffee or an evening cocktail whilst enjoying the views to the surrounding hills. Relax with family and friend over dinner at the family dining table or enjoy breakfast sat at the breakfast bar of the cool, contemporary kitchen which is equipped with quality appliances and everything you could possibly need to enjoy your stay. The two bedrooms are located on the first floor; the master bedroom, with Juliet balcony, faces west enjoying views to the hills and is presented with a comfortable super-king size bed. The smaller, second bedroom can be presented as either a king size bed or two twin beds which can be separated into two (2'6") single beds (ideal for children) should you require - so please state your preference when booking - thank you. Both bedrooms have smart TVs and are complemented by a luxurious family shower room with a large walk-in shower, basin and WC. There are two allocated, private parking spaces for the property, with one served by an electric car charger. However, there is no further parking on site. The wood in the grounds contains a pond so the owners respectfully draw guest’s attention to the fact that this and the layout of the property makes it unsuitable for children under 8 years. Location This Ambleside self-catering house enjoys a wonderful location, despite only a short level stroll from the centre of Ambleside.

About the location

AMBLESIDE

Windermere 4 miles; Grasmere 4 mile; Keswick 15 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 twin by default. Please contact the call center should you wish it to be a king.
