"This property exceeded all of our expectations."
The space, the decor, the cleanliness and the location. The owners made us feel very welcome by leaving us a Christmas card and welcome snacks. I will definitely be staying here again. We had a great time. The extra living space was great for my two young nephews who called it their ‘man cave’. Thank you ☺️

"Seven of us enjoyed a fabulous stay at Rossett Holme over the Christmas week 2024."
The bedrooms and bathrooms are spacious and comfortable and there is a very high standard of linen, decor, fittings and features throughout the house. Liquid hand soaps, moisturiser, shower gel and shampoo are all exclusively from the Bath House in Ambleside, which is a nice touch.
It was if the hosts had thought of absolutely everything guests might need, from the spare umbrellas to a multitude of kitchen utensils and cookware (very handy for making Christmas dinner!) On arrival we were delighted with the unexpected and very welcome Christmas themed hamper including, cake, mince pies, Prosecco and red wine. The welcome pack was very helpful and informative, the Wifi worked very well for those who needed it and the two separate communal living areas with large TVs were very comfortable. The parking bay is a good size for a large car and I found it easy enough to reverse out again onto the quiet road at the back of the house.
A special thank you to Janet, the housekeeper who lives locally, for being so helpful with a couple of queries on arrival and particularly for contacting me after our stay to help locate and return a couple of items we had left behind!
I would definately recommend this house stay to others and we are already thinking of returning again sometime in the future.

"Spotlessly clean, well furnished each bedroom has own bathroom and the location is 10/10
The slight negatives are:
Parking is really tight you had to do a multi point turn to get in or out."
There’s Too many pans, serving dishes etc so little room for groceries. The wine glasses are terrible there was also only x1 gin glass.
But these are just niggles and easily fixed.
Please view the comments re car parking on 30th December. The gin glass issue was resolved straightaway. We are a bit unsure on the wine glasses - in 12 years this has never been raised before. They are very carefully of a design to fit into dishwashers….
We will look at the glasses issue just to be sure.

"What a fantastic place to stay the house is absolutely stunning however the one downside is that if you sleep in the front rooms don't expect to get much sleep they really could do with secondary glazing as the road noise and early deliveries really do spoil an otherwise enjoyable stay."
Interesting - all of the front rooms have secondary glazing!! We are having another look at them to see if the glazing can be upgraded……

"Fantastic property, decorated and maintained to a high standard, everything works, which in my experience is unusual for holiday rentals."
The property is ideally located in the centre of town with walks on the doorstep with plenty of pubs and restaurants nearby.
Parking for our two cars was not a problem in October, there’s parking for one car at the property and we had a permit for the roads near by for the other car and there was always parking available.
This might not be the the case at busier times.

"Lovely spacious property, the bathroom next to twin must have been missed during cleaning."
However, we didn't notice until the day before we left as we didn't use it during our stay.
Didn't like the wine glasses.
The best equipped property we have stayed in.
As guest comments show our Housekeeper/ cleaners take great pride in ‘their’ property being perfect. The bathroom involved was inspected before the guests arrived and after they left.On both inspections the only problem was that after they left the toilet seat was up……

As we were getting married it was a fantastic base for the family to prepare for our big day. Had problem with hot water the day before the wedding but was fixed within 2 hours. If being a bit petty you could complain about the delivery noises early morning but you are in the town centre. Plus side is you open the front door and are in the middle of Ambleside .As soon as I (sorry now we) can save the money we will rent it again.
