"Fabulous cottage in a fantastic location and the house was very nicely decorated for Christmas."
Only one slight criticism, the oven was far too small for six people which made cooking Christmas dinner a challenge. That aside, we would definitely stay again.

"The house is in a perfect location with beautiful views and lovely walks straight from the house."
We found the beds were very comfortable, the house was incredibly clean and the kitchen had everything we needed for some cosy nights cooking in. We would definitely recommend The Mews to all our friends and family, thank you for such a wonderful stay!

"+We adored the house and its surroundings."
The location is absolutely TOP
Quiet location, but very close to Ambleside.
+The house is extremely well equipped.
+The wood burner is fantastic.
+Nice pub nearby if you don't like to cook (on foot)
- The Wifi in the cottage is terribly slow.
- We did not like the bed at all, as one moves, the other one moves along.
- The couch in the living room (in front of TV) is not as comfortable as we hoped it would be after a long walk.
Thank you very much for your comments and for taking the time to let us know your thoughts. As I am sure you understand, every guest has their own requirements and therefore what suits one person may not suit the other - but the owner will be able to see these comments and action where necessary. We are glad that you enjoyed your holiday and all that the area has to provide.

"A beautiful place to stay and explore."
The house is immaculately presented with everything you could need and more. We would love to return we loved it so much. There is lots to explore from this perfectly positioned, well-appointed and spotlessly clean place. A wonderful stay. Thank you.

"This is our second visit."
The property has an amazing location. It's well furnished and has everything you could need. The main downside is that there is a very musty damp smell in some of the rooms, particularly upstairs. All our clothes smelt musty, the curtains in the ensuite bathroom are going mouldy and despite turning the temperature up, we couldn't get the radiators to come on upstairs. I called Lake Lovers (Sykes) twice who reassured me to just turn it up but nothing. We were also inundated with moths - there are moth catchers in the house but there were still an awful lot.

"Nice cottage in a great location."
Plenty of walks right from the front door.
No need to drive into Ambleside, just stroll along the quiet lane.
Loved this place :-)

"We are regular visitors to Ambleside, so we knew the location of this property and that it was nearly one mile out of town."
It was so peaceful and the walk into town so enjoyable alongside the stream/river.
The cottage and equipment were all of a high standard and the owner had certainly an eye for what is needed and also quality.
The mews is spacious and well laid out with everything you may need especially the kitchen.
We would definitely return and thank the owner for that extra level of love that has been put into the cottage.

"Generally very good property in rural location."
Well equipped. A few bad points, lighting is poor especially downstairs were it was dark. Central heating was difficult to use and regulate, living room cold. Moths were a big problem, have to spray regularly to kill them. The vacuum cleaner had not been emptied for a long time, it was absolutely blocked and I emptied the bag myself. The water collecting bottle on the tumble dryer was also full on arrival and stopped the dryer working, again I had to fix this myself. These items should be picked up by the Maintenance / Change over teams.

"A fabulous cottage in a fabulous location."
We had family visit to help celebrate my sister and brother in laws 40th wedding anniversary and the large kitchen and open plan living space was ideal to accommodate us all for the day. Walks from the door and a lovely stroll into Ambleside for cafes, bars and shops. We were lucky with the weather and even enjoyed the snow covered scenery as we departed. Thanks to the Lakelovers for sorting some issues we had with heating and water supply, all sorted with no disruption to our holiday. We would like to thank the owners for sharing such a fabulous cottage, we really enjoyed our stay.
Thank you very much for your kind feedback. We are so glad that you and your family were able to enjoy the property to its full extent and all the area has to provide.

"It was our fifth visit to a well loved property."
This time we had difficulty with the heating/hot water. We couldn't get the heating to come on in the morning upstairs although we could manually switch on downstairs. The hot water only came on if we had switched on the heating downstairs.
There was only one tea towel for the week. I suggest another plus a kitchen hand towel.
The new kitchen is well equipped but the non-stick pans are badly scratched.
We still had a wonderful stay and will be back!

"This is our third stay at The Mews and we look forward to coming back."
The house was spotlessly clean upon arrival with all needed facilities in superb working order. The bathroom showers were wonderfully comfortably with hot water flowing at all times. The kitchen could not be more wonderfully complete.
Thank you to the owners and especially to Joyce the cleaner for presenting us with such a lovely holiday home for our two week stay this year.

"We have stayed before in this property, it is in an excellent location and is beautifully presented."
Our only concern is that we spent a week here in the cold weather and we were frequently cold, there were lots of passive aggressive notices around telling us not to touch the heating but we felt at such a price we should be able to have some control without keep ringing the offices each time. We do not require the heating on continually but would have liked to have control for periods when we were extra cold. Needless to say it has put us off returning.

"Lovely looking property in a great location with a fab well equipped kitchen but there were some facility and comfort issues."
Wi-do was not working ( no 3 or 4g or mobile phone connection at property ) and we spent the first afternoon of our holidays on the phone to Lake Lovers holding on the line. Turned out owners controlled that from their home. The other main issue for us was heating. It was cold in the morning when we got up and late afternoon when we came back our walks. After reading signs and manual again we discovered owners also controlled that so we had no way to boost heat. There is a log burner but you have to source and buy your own kindling and logs. First time we have not been cosy in a property which was a shame. We visited in October.

"I reported a fault with the water pressure and I was told that I would be kept informed (no info)
I called back later 7 hours."
Then I had a reply.
There was one bin bag……
There was a request to put the bedding in the bags provided. There were none.
The bins were not collected until I called, eventually someone came and half emptied the bin….
The house was great but the little things were annoying when considering the cost for a week was over £2000…..
Thank you very much for your comments and for taking the time to let us know your thoughts. Customer feedback is very important to help us continually improve our standards.
On receipt of you reporting the fault we contacted unitited utilities and they advised low water pressure due to work in the local area, we can only apologise for this but it was out of our control.
Each property operate individually and its at the owners discretion re kitchen supplies etc. However 1 bin bag is left for guests to use.
Unfortunately on this occasion the bins weren't left out for the waste collection company to empty, so our maintenance team helped with this.
We hope the above doesn't deter you from booking with us again. Thank you once again for your feedback
