“Lovely well equipped cottage in an excellent location.”
Sadly the cleanliness on arrival, particularly of the kitchen, was unacceptable, especially given the times we are living in with the pandemic. Otherwise, a fabulous place to stay.
Thank you for your feedback, we are delighted to hear you found the cottage to be well equipped and loved the location. We are saddened that on this occasion the cleanliness did not meet your expectations, we did offer for a member of our housekeeping team to re attend and rectify any shortfalls, and it is with regret that you declined. We do hope to welcome you back in the near future for a trouble free stay. Property Owner

About the location
AMBLESIDE
Grasmere 4.4 miles; Windermere 4.7 miles; Keswick 16.7 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.
