Everything was amazing and so easy. Received great instructions the day before check in with videos etc. The check in process was a doddle, as was checkout. The comms via whats app was so efficient. I requested the chance of a later check out and they managed to extend this to 11:30 no questions asked. Room was stunning, bed was SO comfortable and it was less than a 10 minute walk into Ambleside. Also highly reccommend the stone baked pizza hut next door - AMAZING!!!! Would most certainly stay again

The room we stayed in over last weekend (hot weather weekend) we could not have the windows open because it had a wasp nest directly above the window in the guttering, I enformed them they told me what they had done and they were going to they kept me informed of every step which was fine With the weather being so hot it the room was a little unbearable at times during the night I know wasps do not come out at night, but they do early morning
