Ideal holiday house, location close to shops, eateries, swimming pool whilst still having easy access to the fells. The drive is extremely steep and although it advertises garage for two cars, it wouldn’t fit two large cars. Nice having the extra space up on the road. For a family of 6 we did rearrange the table in front of the window and push the settees to the walls. We preferred to play games at the table rather than watch tv on holiday but at least guests have the choice. The kitchen was well appointed and we made good use of the washing machine and tumble dryer after getting rather wet at times on the fells. The showers were great, powerful and warm. Our elderly dog had to visit vets and we can wholeheartedly recommend Oakhill vets in Ambleside. Thanks for letting us stay.

Brilliant location and facilities

We have just had a great holiday in the lakes. The house was in a brilliant location just a couple of minutes into the centre but far enough away to be peaceful.There was everything we needed in the house and it was clean throughout. The pool next door is a huge plus and the view is absolutely stunning.If I had to make any criticism it would be that the blinds need some attention but it didn't impede our stay at all.Thank you for hosting us

Fabulous location

This house is high on a hill so view from the balcony is second to non. A great viewing platform for the F35 jets too! Its high up position does mean steep walks up and down. The house is big and easily accommodated the 5 of us and we found everything we needed for a great week. The pool is 3 mins walk away and was a nice addition.

Home from Home With Great Views

Just had a second great stay at this property which has all the facilities you need for a pleasant stay. The property has a balcony off the lounge and main bedroom which offers great views over Ambleside and across to the hills on the other side of the valley. The location offers quick access to the town centre via 74 steps down a nearby path or for those preferring a slope either down the road or along past the leisure centre and down a few steps and down a slope. Being on a slope the drive is quite steep and may not be suitable for some sports cars but there is a parking space at the top of the drive to cater for such occasions. The owner, Garth, contacted us half way through the week just to check everything was okay which was a pleasant touch. The owner allows a dog to stay which many do not which can be restrictive in accommodation choice so we are so pleased that we found this place. This is our second stay at the property and we have already discussed about returning again in the future. We definitely recommend a stay at this property.

Great location and wonderful views

Great location with amazing views over Ambleside and the hills. The balcony is a bonus in good weather. The walk into Ambleside is steep but short so you have easy access to all the town has to offer and walks into the fells without needing to drive. Use of the (small) pool and jacuzzi at Lakelands was a bonus and quiet the week we were there. House is well presented and furnished with plenty of storage, crockery/cutlery etc. The beginning of our week was very cold and even with the heating on we noticed the upstairs stayed warm but downstairs was noticeably colder. The bathrooms were lovely, especially the large monsoon shower in the en suite. Comfortable beds. The leather sofas however were definitely end of life with absolutely no support left on the seats so were uncomfortable which was a shame. The driveway is steep so we decided to keep the car on the parking space at the top of the drive next to the garage wall which worked well.

Excellent Break in Wonderful Ambleside

This is a beautiful property in a prime location overlooking Ambleside. The house has everything you could need and more. Warm, comfortable with amazing views from the large balcony overlooking Ambleside and beyond to the breathtaking views of the hills and countryside. Just a few minutes (steep) walk from Ambleside town centre and everything this bustling lakeland town has to offer, pubs, restaurants and shopping a plenty. Excellent comms from Garth made the booking in process very easy from start to finish and the use of the swimming pool and jacuzzi at the nearby Lakeland Centre was an added bonus.

We have just stayed here for the Christmas period and had a lovely time. Had a little trouble with water heater, trying to switch it on but have Garth a quick call and all sorted. The walk into the village is literally 5 mins and lots of great pubs to choose from all pet friendly. Didn't go on many walks as it's didn't stop raining fur the whole week but not a lot you can do about that. Lovely comfy beds and modern bathrooms. Kitchen well equipped and sky TV connected. This wi fi of you need to work remotely. Definitely recommend.
