“The property is in a lovely position with superb views.”
Very easy access to the centre of Ambleside and good walking from the property. But there were a few small issues which together add up. The mattress in the double bedroom is very hard. It needs an upgrade to be more comfortable so much so we had to use the pull down bed in the lounge. The shower heads are very impractical and almost impossible to angle for normal use. They had to be removed from the cradle to be used. The kettle in the kitchen is difficult to fill as the lid does not open fully. A suggestion would be to reduce the size of the kitchen table as two people working in a self catering kitchen found the space to be very tight. We appreciate the table has to sit 6 at a push but a smaller table could have been used and still accommodated 6 people.
On the whole the facilities were good and the apartment was very clean and the kitchen was well equipped. We have been coming to several of these apartments for very many years and hope this criticism is taken in good faith as we appreciate it is hard to please everyone all of the time

Sorry you had some small issues which we hope did not spoil your stay. Beds are very much a personal choice and the level of hardness/softness will inevitably not suit everyone. The shower heads are adjustable by moving them gently up or down until they click on the required setting. We will add some instructions about this to the guest information in the apartment. We will also look at the kettle and consider replacing it - no guests have raised this issue previously. Finally, as you say, the table has to seat 6 as this is the maximum sleeping capacity. If guests do not require 6 seats they can move the table towards the corner of the kitchen under the TV and store unwanted chairs under the stairs for the duration of their stay.
