• "Lovely property and we would definitely return and recommend to others."

  Nicely furnished and well equipped with very comfy sofas. We loved the stunning views from the front of the house, and the way the ground rose up sharply at the back from the back garden and the sheep meandering at the top. The beds were comfy (with cotton bedding) which for us is one of the most important things. Love that the property is within walking distance to Ambleside and also that you can plan your days hiking from the front door. We took the two dining chairs from the kitchen breakfast table and placed them around the dining table for the duration of our stay. We think it would be better to have the full set of dining chairs around the dining table and perhaps source another two smaller chairs for the breakfast table. The house was too hot for us and when we re-set the heating to 19 degrees we found that after a while, it always reverted back to 24 degrees which was way to hot for us.

  Thanks Angela for your lovely feedback & suggestions. The back view is just as interesting with the steepness and sheep . It’s invigorating to wake up to either the views at the front or rear. Sometimes I leave the curtains open to be woken by the morning light and spectacular views. Best David Property Owner

• "Smart, warm and well equipped."

  Plenty of room for our group of seven, including the large dinning table we spent most evening meal times sat around. Very quiet and peaceful, with outstanding views over Ambleside and the fells from both the living room and the upstairs bedrooms. Lovely place and I would certainly book again.

  I’m very pleased that you & your family created some quality experiences. It is great view out of the lounge window, I could sit there all day long. Very welcome to come back. Best David Property Owner

• "Great place for group of family/friends."

  Clean and comfortable base to return to after walking. Owner responsive and helpful when we had no heating and hot water.

We managed to resolve the downtime in heating / hot water proactively between ourselves and Lake lovers. We look forward to welcoming you back . All the best over the festive period .

• "It would be a good idea to have a few novels available."

  Most holiday cottages have a selection. Also the lack of a welcome pack of tea,sugar,milk and biscuits . Just a minor detail but can make a big difference if able to make a cuppa after a long and tiring journey. Need to point out that it is a very steep climb up the hill from the town. My husband and I got a taxi every day!!

• "The House was very comfortable and clean."

  My only slightly negative feedback would be a lack of comfortable seating in an evening if there were more than 6 adults. There is a chair, 3 seater and 2 seater (unless you squeezed more into them). Other than that we found it ideal for our needs. This cannot be addressed but worth noting it sits at the top of a steep ascent through the estate - no matter to us as we are able to and wanted to walk the hills. The garden albeit equipped with a lovely garden set doesn’t get much light so we didn’t use it despite fantastic sunny weather. Kitchen very well equipped with top quality appliances. We would look to rebook if staying in Ambleside again.

• "This house was just perfect for our group, with 4 bedrooms so enough room for the 5 of us."

  It is very pet friendly and was great to be able to take out 2 dogs. The house is well maintained and is very comfortable. The beds are good and the living area has plenty of space for everyone. One review says that the ground floor bedroom had a damp smell but we didn’t find that. There is a fan and the windows open if further ventilation is needed. The property is a short walk into Ambleside about 10 mins but you do keep fit walking back up the hill. The host got in touch and was very welcoming and helpful. We would definitely visit again.

  Thank you Fiona for your generous comments and we look forward to welcoming you in the future, to continue your experience of the lovely Lake District. Property Owner

• "The location was bit far to walk into town due to hills not suitable for anyone with mobility issues."

  Thank you for taking the time to leave feedback. We are pleased that you enjoyed your stay. We do take your comments on board, however, the listing does state that the property is in 'an elevated position' Thank you. The Lakelovers Owner Relations Team Property Owner

• "Good location in Ambleside."

  Property well equiped. Bedroom on ground floor smells a little damp & mould in sealant around shower. Sofa's on 1st floor smell musty. All bedrooms on 2nd floor clean & in good order. Main bathroom tired & presonally hate a shower curtain. All recycle bins in outdoor cupboard full & overspill on floor. Woken at 4am every morning by a cockerall that is free range & nests in trees opposite house. Accidently left a small item contacted Sykes twice & after 2 weeks have heard nothing.

  Thank you for your comments. We take all comments on board, and will be passed on to the relevant teams. Thank you The Lakelovers Owner Relations Team Property Owner

• "You told us there would be a stair gate to protect our young child, apparently the owner informed you that this was not possible but somehow this information was not passed on to us."

  The accommodation was very well equipped and the views from the property were amazing.

  Hi, I trust you had a successful walk up Scafell. It’s a shame that you failed to mention to me on the Friday when I working at the property installing new 8 person garden furniture, a bench at the front to admire the view, upgrading the fence and a customised porch mat. I discussed your request 4 months ago and declined because of insurance, decorative and the customised ironwork bannisters. The listing is accurate it’s does not include stair gates but there is a cot and high chair in the back bedroom wardrobe . I’m pleased you enjoyed the views, location and large amounts of accommodation. Property Owner

• "Amazing views and a great location!"

  Ambleside is a short walk away with many restaurants, shops and cafes, as well as the start of some great walks. It is also a great base to explore the wider Lake District. The property has 4 well-sized bedrooms as well as large living areas. We had plenty of room for friends and family.

  Dear Bethany I’m so happy you found the property a great location to explore the beautiful Lake District and you had plenty of space. I have to admit the views are stunning. Look forward to having you and your friends back soon, all the best for 2024. Property Owner
