We've just had a fabulous weekend here.
We've just had a fabulous weekend here. Great walks straight from the door along with all the amenities of Ambleside. The house is comfortable and warm with plenty of hot water. The beds were super comfy. A good big fridge freezer. We also appreciated the Christmas tree. Thanks!
Good location, spacious, and fairly close to centre.
Property needs some TLC from thd outside, dont think it had been occupied for a while as it was very musty smelling, which took a good few days to subside after heating helped dry out .Old fashioned furniture, but
Overall, had a nice stay .

The property has a lovely, dog-secure garden.
The property has a lovely, dog-secure garden. Although the kitchen is very small for 8 people, it was well equipped. The central heating on the whole was very effective. On the negative side, the property is not really big enough for 8 people. There is only 1double bed, the others being a mix of bunk and single beds. The downstairs bedroom has access to an integral garage and it is very cold, with a draught coming under the door. There are 2 additional heaters in this room to compensate but one was a floor fan heater which has been hung on the wall and you need to be sat under it to get any benefit. This type of fan can only be used for short periods. The other heater was a freestanding electric radiator.
The location of the property is excellent, being only 6/7 minutes walk into town centre.
