Wansfell Loft was quite excellent.

Ideally located within an easy and flat 5 minute walk into Ambleside and the excellent bus connections, shops, restaurants and amenities, it has its own "off road" parking space and is so very well equipped. It had absolutely everything we needed and more and was very comfortable. The slight mark down for maintenance, which should not detract from the overall enjoyment and rating, is simply because on the day of arrival, Saturday 12th, we met with the maintenance man who was there to fix a broken kitchen drawer front which he was unable to do on the Saturday, but said he would return on Monday to do so and asked us to leave the key in the key safe for him, which we did each day, but he failed to turn up all week and we eventually left on Saturday 19th with the repair still outstanding. A lovely property which we do not hesitate in recommending to others.
