What guests are saying
We really enjoyed our stay at Wansfell Nook.
The living area and kitchen were well equipped and comfortable. The bedrooms were airy and spacious, with comfy beds, and the whole place clean and welcoming. A massive bath is always a good thing too. As we had been walking the washing machine was also a welcome addition. The position, a short walk from the centre of Ambleside, was excellent, giving us peace and accessibility. As the weather was fine most days we also enjoyed the patio for drinks and meals. One the one dreary day, the living room was a cozy place to hang out. The only quibble was that we couldn’t find the stovetop instructions, as they’d been buried in a drawer but popping them in the information folder would help. Overall, I would definitely stay there again.
The house was lovely, we had a great time, Very comfortable and great location.
Needed a colander though and a potato masher but managed.
Lovely property with fantastic facilities with everything you need within the property.
Great location for Ambleside Town Centre as well, not far for a walk up Wansfell Pike which can accessed via a path up the road from the front of the properly. Only little negative the tap on the left hand side basin on the first floor bedroom was loose and needs sorting.
