“This was our first visit to the Lake District and we deliberately chose accommodation in the centre of Ambleside so that we could easily access local amenities.”
The apartment is small, but perfect for 2 people. It is well equipped and is a few doors down from 2 local convenience stores, so easy to stock up on essentials. Although the weekends were busy with visitors (we stayed in June), we were pleasantly surprised by how relatively quiet it was during the week, especially considering that the bedroom and living room both face onto the main street. Parking space behind the building was easy enough to negotiate for a small/medium sized car (ours is a Toyota Yaris) and it’s worth mentioning that there is back access to the accommodation as well as going round the front. Also worth mentioning that finding the parking space initially was a little tricky as there is no signage on the road and the apartment name is only visible once you have gone down the slope into the entrance. This is also the case at the front entry to the building, as there is no apartment name on the door or bell pushes. Suggest it may be worth including the house name in the entry instructions? Otherwise, pick up and drop off of keys was very easy, including drop off after hours. Would definitely recommend, thank you.
Thank you very much for your helpful feedback, and we are very pleased to hear you enjoyed staying at Tom Heights with its central position in Ambleside.
We have noted your suggestions with regard to finding the property initially, and will look to see if we can make that clearer.
Kind regards, Hilary and Keith
