“The property was well kept & modern.”

Jennifer February 2022

“On arrival at the property there was no heating or hot water with the boiler not firing, the TV did not work and one velux window in the lounge was broken (did not fully close) and blind was broken.”

Overall we had a pleasant stay and can see it is a well equipped apartment and very comfy beds, nice bathrooms, well equipped kitchen etc. Maintenance team did come quickly and we found them very helpful and although their first solution didn't last very long, we were able to relight the boiler ourselves.

- Jennifer, February 2022

I'm glad that the maintenance team were able to assist you quickly and I hope that you were able to enjoy your stay despite these issues. We are constantly trying to improve things at Waterfall for our guests' comfort and welcome all feedback. I'm glad you found the beds to be comfy and enjoyed these other aspects.

“Due to the accommodation allowing dogs, found that a through hovering of carpet had not been carried out.”

Ended up with dog hairs over clothes and furniture. As a hover was in the accommodation I used this and this resolved the problem. Apart from that the accommodation was excellent.

“Absolutely superb!”

Delightful and very comfortable accommodation in a very convenient location. All the mod cons plus a few extra luxuries. We could not have asked for more. Thank you!

Nicola August 2021

“We all had a lovely stay at Waterfall Cottage in Ambleside.”

The huge double bed in the main bedroom was incredibly comfortable! The short stroll downhill into Ambleside, with it’s shops, cafes and restaurants, was a real bonus. The only slight shame was a lack of any outside space, but we loved the sound of rushing water from the falls at night. Our family of 5 would definitely recommend this Lakelovers Cottage to friends and family looking for a central stay in the Lakes.

Howard July 2021

“The apartment was lovely and clean and in an excellent location.”

Rooms were all a good size and everything we needed was provided. A couple of very small issues. For some reason the temperature of the showers could not be altered regardless of which lever was turned. It was either very hot or nothing. Also the towels provided had a bit of a nasty, damp smell to them, like they needed to be rinsed and treated with fabric conditioner. Apart from that, everything was great.

Superficially the apartment was clean but dishwasher had been left full of dirty plates and food with broken glass sitting in the filter , it needed salt and rinse aid which I sorted , crumbs in toaster and on worktop , dirty pans in cupboard too wasn't great but apart from that everything was ok

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.
