"Another lovely visit to Millans Garth x
Our first visit in Autumn but didn't disappoint - as provided us with all the warmth and home comforts we needed at this time of year."
The house was immaculately clean and a great base for our trips out on buses and boats. Great to have the gas stove and large TV to return to.
The location is fantastic and so quiet.
Feels more like home each time we visit and hope to spend many more happy weeks there in 2025
Thanks so much, great to have your appreciative feedback!

"Fantastic place, very central and yet quiet."
We did many hiking and paddling trips and all no further than 30 mins from Ambleside.
The house layout was perfect for two families.
Highly recommend.
Thank you! So pleased that you enjoyed your stay.

"Very convenient for Ambleside with helpful info about walks and places to eat etc."
Very good to have parking permit and extra permit for some local car parks.
Heating worked well, we needed for couple of evenings.
Very well stocked with sensible sized mugs, plates and cutlery.
Surprised no dishwasher tablets left for us - or we did not find them.
Great to have good size and screen quality TV plus DVD player and DVDs, had iPlayer but did not have eg ITVx.
Main shower is very easy to use and worked well but small.
All in all -super place to stay
Many thanks for the positive review! The small pack in the kitchen on arrival should have contained a few dishwasher tablets as well as other necessities, sorry if that was not the case.

"Our second visit to this fab property and found it as lovely as in our 2022 visit !"
Millans Garth offers everything and more we could ask for immaculately clean, so well stocked and comfortable and in perfect location.
We used as a base for days out on the buses and boats as is centrally located and offers great access to so many places.
This is as well as the lovely Ambleside itself with fab eating, drinking and cinema options.
Te great bright sunny weather helped too!
Hoping not to have to wait another 2 years to return x
Many thanks! We look forward to welcoming you back again!

"Millans Garth is a lovely property just a few steps from Ambleside town centre."
It is very spacious and comfortable, and well equipped. We were just 2 people, but there would have been plenty space for more. We highly recommend Millan's Garth.

"One cannot fault the cleanliness, the closeness of the town center, the facilities on offer and the whole ambiance of the house and the area in and around Ambleside, but there are two health and safety warnings: (1) The step in the kitchen needs a white line to highlight it to prevent people tripping up on it (2) More importantly the faulty ring on the cooker needs repairing instantly."
It is an accident waiting to happen. There is a notice next to the cooker pointing out the faulty ring, but this has clearly been there for some time and as it is a front tring that is permanently on it is within reach of 'tiny hands' or distracted people and can therefore cause serious burns It is for this reason that I give them the lowest score for the last question

"A very good base for Ambleside."
The property is well maintained with just a couple of minor exceptions. The Slabs leading from the Back door would be a lot safer if they were cleaned with a power jet. As you know they are quite slippery after rainfall. The broken dial on the cooker urgently needs replacing. Even with the warning notice its a safety issue. Overall though, Its a fine property, and we may well revisit in the future.

"We had a great stay at Milan’s Garth, it more than lived up to expectations, being comfortable and maintained to a high standard."
We have already recommended this cottage to others & will be hoping to stay again. We enjoyed being able to leave our car, doing a few walks from the cottage. Ambleside also has a really good choice of restaurants, cafes and bakeries. We found Ambleside & Millans Garth to be an ideal central base for both walks and exploring other villages of note, so hope to stay again & highly recommend.
Thank you for your kind comments, we are so pleased to hear that you enjoyed your stay.
We hope to welcome you back.

"What an amazing location."
So easy to walk into Ambleside to enjoy the lovely shops. We had no difficulty parking although went before the English school holidays. The property was easy to access ( permits in the house not at the Heart of the Lakes office as mentioned in emails so no need to rush before the office closes like we did) and very nice. Comfortable living room with great TV and lovely big dining room table. Kitchen excellent ( only thing that would have made it better was a pair of oven gloves). The bedrooms were lovely with good views. Service from Heart of the Lakes was also excellent. The shower leaked on our first day and flooded through the ceiling. We called and a plumber came out within hours and fixed the problem without us needing to be there. We would definitely love to return one day.

Very well provisioned with everything you could need in the kitchen. The Heart of the Lakes team were helpful too. The number of guests who have been back and booked this property on multiple occasions is testament to its quality.

"The people at the Heart of the Lakes were as always super helpful."
Our advice is to communicate with them and NOT Sykes Cottages if you book through them. For a start their customer service people (Sykes) communicate with a “no reply” email address and after no fewer than 19 to a fro telephone calls they failed to help us with a parking permit problem whereas Heart of the Lakes were super helpful.
