"Spotlessly clean, with high quality kitchen."
Welcome pack good but ground coffee with no cafetiere made no sense. No tea pot, was a minor irritation, as was coffee table too large and incongruous. Lack of headroom should have been emphasised. Major problem was the mattress which was unevenly worn, and not previously turned. Should be replaced immediately. Excellent location, nice patio and generally a high quality property. The defects mentioned could be easily rectified (headroom apart), and,once remedied, the property would get top marks.
Thank you for your feedback. The head height and furniture at the property are shown fully in the 10 photographs on the Sykes website. We can confirm that at changeover, both before and after your stay, there was a cafetiere in the cupboard. We have had no issues with mattress from previous guests comments, but will look into the matter and rectify if required. Property Owner

"We had a lovely stay in the Prospect Cottage Studio."
Everything we needed for our stay. It was lovely and clean. I wasn’t sure when reading the information if these were available, there was a hair drier, iron and ironing board, razor point in the shower room and freezer box in the fridge.
Jo contacted us to let us know we could use the parking in front of the main house as it wasn’t occupied that week, which was a nice touch, not that walking 4 mins to the car park is an issue.

"We loved it from the moment we stepped inside."
The furnishings were absolutely amazing with no expense spared. Everything we needed was in the studio which was ideal for us as l like to make a meal or two when away. The complimentary hamper was filled with goodies to start us off this was a lovely addition. The studio was central to all Ambleside has to offer with amazing views from the patio. The location was quiet and peaceful making for great sleeps in the very comfy bed. We would definitely go back here again
Many thanks for your kind words Patricia. We are glad you love the Studio as much as we do! Please do come back and visit us again! Property Owner

"Prospect Cottage Studio really did deliver to its description within its marketing material."
The studio was well laid out and although compact was really spacious and ideal for our needs for two people.No pets and no children under five meant that the property was fresh and clean and had a quite distinct newness about it.The location was great, away from the main streets of the town of Ambleside but close enough and within easy reach of all amenities. The Golden Rule pub was just a couple of hundred yards away from the studio down the hill which must be the best one in Ambleside with a great selection of hand pulled beer, lagers and choice of wines.Great pork pies. The studio was a great base for numerous walks and within easy reach of buses at super regular intervals. All in all a great stay and would recommend to any couple looking for that extra special hideaway. Derek and Jane.

"Perfect accommodation for one or two people."
Prospect cottage studio is in a convenient position in the heart of Ambleside with great views, yet in a relatively peaceful spot with very little noise from neighbouring properties. Tastefully decorated and comfortable, with all facilities. Overall, a little gem!!

"We had a lovely stay in the cottage."
Recently renovated, so brilliant facilities. Took us a bit of Googling to find out how to turn the towel radiator off as the bathroom was very warm. The parking permit was very handy though as it can be used in a number of surrounding places. We’d love to go back.

"It wasn’t really possible to park near the studio so I used the car park which is fine until I left the car park and it was full when I got back and had to find somewhere else to park."

"Immaculate accommodation with beautiful decor and quality furnishings/fittings throughout."
Location of cottage was perfect within a stones throw of the pretty bustling town of Ambleside.
The only negative was the lack of storage space. One set of rather old wooden drawers which did not open and close well and was rather out of keeping with the rest of the high end furnishings.
We therefore lived out of the two suitcases which cluttered the already restricted floor space. Had the bed been higher off the ground we could have pushed them under to free up space which would have been useful.
This did in no way spoil our holiday as everything else was so lovely but just thought the owners may be interested to learn of things people found a little difficult to live with.

"Stunning ground-floor apartment in the heart of Ambleside."
Beautifully renovated and traditionally decorated but with all modern conveniences. The location is ideal for walking out onto the fells, wandering into town....or just staying in and enjoying the views from the patio!
We had wonderful relaxing stay and will definitely be back.

"There was no recyling facilities."
We were only a party of 2, but even so we recycled a whole 50l bag. We brought it home, we’re not sure others would have done that and instead put it in general waste. Please show whether recyling opportunities are included in the summary of each property, as it may encourage owners to do the right thing.
Thank you for your comments regarding the Studio. The waste from the cottage has to be commercially collected in line with local Government guidelines. However, within the Welcome Pack there are directions to the local recycling centre, which is less than a mile from the Studio. Property Owner

"Beautiful holiday cottage."
Immaculately clean. Had everything we needed for our visit so we could easily stay and cook in a few nights. Excellent location 2 minutes walk from the centre of Ambleside which has so many amazing choices for eating out and some great independent shops. Have highly recommended to friends and family already.

"The studio was really lovely and beautifully furnished with taste."
We felt that a place to dry your hair with a mirror would be useful. Also maybe a shelf in the bathroom to put is needed. The parking was difficult and if you lost the space it was difficult to get back. Loved the decor and the quality of the furnishings
Thank you for your comments. Customer feedback is very important to us.
There is a vanity mirror in the bathroom, that can be found on the shelf, for use anywhere in the cottage. The owners have provided a permit for the local car park down the road, as street parking around the cottage is limited. Please do come and visit us again Property Owner

"Brilliant little apartment, all you need for two people."
Excellent location, no need to use the car all week. Managed to park on the road even during the busy school holidays, but the option of using a car park permit was great.
