    The property is ideal for a cosy relaxing break in a perfect location. Hopefully we will return again next year.

  • "The level of comfort, fittings and fixtures and decoration at High Borrans can only be rated as “first class”, making our week’s stay very pleasant."

    One small thing that needs correction is the provision of a mat in the shower (the tray is extremely slippery) Also, we were slightly disappointed that as there was obviously no space for a wardrobe in the bedroom, the “store” in the corner has been utilised as such. Whilst in principle this “works” it is not perhaps ideal, due to also being used as a store for various items, and is simply not in keeping with high standard of the rest of the accommodation. However, these are relatively minor matters, and certainly not enough to deter us from booking again and recommending it to friends.

    Endless walks or rides from straight from the apartment, don't need to use the car at all. Bed is really comfy, apartment is a great size with nice kitchen and bathroom, wonderful views and grounds with great wildlife. Apartment could do with a bit of a deep clean since we last stayed but all the important bits were spotless, it's a truly wonderful place to stay.

    The apartment was lovely, really spacious and high quality. It was a real home from home and we would definitely book there again. There are some stairs you need to climb to get to it and a bank to walk up too, so not suitable for disabled or elderly. However, everything is furnished and decorated beautifully. The weather we had was awful, so we were pleased to have such a great place to stay, thank you.

    The apartment was bright and very spacious with wonderful views. Fully equipped with household needs - I’d suggest bringing essentials like washing up liquid. It was lovely to come back to after a day on the hills and felt like a home from home. It was nice and clean but I’d say it could do with a spring clean, ie the skirting boards in the bathroom needed a wipe down and the doors a wipe over. That said, we’d be more than happy to come back and would definitely book again - Thank you.

  • "The apartment was lovely with great views."

    The only criticism is that on arrival, after a very long journey, we arrived to find the bed unmade, no clean towels or binbags. We were at a loss to know what had happened. After trying to contact the office by telephone for about 30 minutes, we spoke to someone who arranged for someone to come and sort it out. The problem was resolved satisfactorily but it was still a disappointing start to our stay.

    Thank you for your feedback, and we are glad to hear that you enjoyed the views and the apartment. We are sorry to hear of the issue that you experienced upon your arrival, but we are pleased that we were able to attend to resolve. We hope that you will return to stay again.

  • "The property was fantastic, could not fault it."

    The only negative is all the dog muck on the steps from where the accommodation is down to the road. I think it is the dog of the people in the abseiling building as they let it roam. However, coming back from a tiring day of walking and climbing up the steps trying to avoid the 'mess' was not fun! The holiday would have been perfect without this element.

    Well equipped. Good location and very peaceful despite the alarming queue of traffic when we arrived on Saturday evening! A couple of small suggestions. Could you leave a space in the kitchen cupboards for visitors to store food. And could you provide washing up liquid - we've left a bottle. Also we reported a minor maintenance issue with the shower to Sykes which hopefully they've sorted. Apart from that it was great, and we had an excellent week. Thanks very much.

    Waterhead literally just round the corner & Ambleside a 10 minute (max) walk away. We were able to do a different walk each day from the door (4 days) so no need to use the car. Comfortable, cosy yet spacious accommodation. Stairs to property not for anyone with mobility issues. Would benefit from an outdoor seating area.

    I would not recommend it to anyone who did not want a half hour walk into town for dinner though. There were a few slightly irritating things about the property but not worth complaining about. None of the clocks in the property were working. Some of the crockery and glasses were actually dirty as if only given the meanest of rinsing not a proper wash. Fingers prints all over the drinking glasses. I partly put this down to the miniscule bottle of washing up liquid. There were however 3 dishwasher tabs which more than covered our week. I would have liked another bath towel. The bathroom and kitchen windows were stuck and could not be pushed open. Lastly the windows in the lounge were not very well decorated on the outside with smears of paint or putty over the panes spoiling the nice view to the lake. On a very positive note we managed to leave the key inside the property therefore locking ourselves out. The emergency hotline was easy to get hold of and the maintenance man promptly attended late at night to let us back in.

    The property was clean, comfortable and well equipped. The caffetiere was broken so we bought a new one at a charity shop and left it at the property. During our stay we experienced a leak from the next door apartment which we reported to the property owner, the maintenance team (Ian & Alan) were extremely prompt and very helpful and sorted drying out the kitchen for us and making it safe. The only slight drawback was the mattress on the bed, very lumpy and could do with changing, also there's no visitors information book, just a folder with all the instruction booklets for the appliances which is of very little use for first timers to the area and the Lakes. Overall a very enjoyable stay and would recommend.

    Bigger than on the pictures. Have a 3 months old baby and it was perfect. Such amazing light. I was able to work during the week. The wifi can just about handle a Teams call at low quality (7mb/s downlod and 2mb/s upload), there is 4G (only 2 bars so also depends) that handle can more…basically its passable for a couple of days. The garden is beautiful and ambleside is a great town. Its at the start or the mountains and most epic walks are only 20-40max drive. There is also great public transport around the lakes, so having a car is a plus, but not a must.

    Very roomy for two people with a large lounge/ dining area whose large windows let in lots of light and gave great views towards Windermere. The shower room was beautifully finished and the bedroom very comfortable with a good bed! High Borrans sits in attractive private grounds, well removed from the road. We too, like some previous guests, were fortunate to encounter three young deer on our return one afternoon. The only slight concern, for those of us slightly longer in the tooth, are the outside steps up to the apartment, on which care must be taken, especially in wet weather. We would certainly recommend High Borrans to friends though.

    It is a really great apartment with nice furnishings and artwork. It was a great base for our hiking and we loved the views from the windows. The location was excellent for walking into Ambleside (only takes 10-15 mins). The only real problem we had was with the shower water pressure- the pump only turned on a couple of times during our stay which meant most of our showers were with no pressure. Not ideal after you come home cold and wet from hiking! Despite the shower, we had a really wonderful stay and would come again. Thank you

    Huge walk in wardrobe with hanging space, shelves and automatic light. On the downside although the mattress was firm and comfortable, the pillows were completely flat with no comfort to them at all. Also the metal bed head was very noisy every time we made the slightest move (which must have been awful for people downstairs) . The skirting boards had not been cleaned for a long time and there were quite heavy cobwebs at the corners in the bedroom, bathroom and sitting room. So if dusting is done, and you bring your own pillows and remove the bed head this should make your stay perfect. You need to be happy to climb a steep metal staircase to go in this lovely apartment.

The apartment is a perfect place to stay, everything you need and very spacious too. Bed was very comfortable, lounge has loads of room with dining table and sofas, kitchen has all you need though Ambleside has so many places to eat out you don't really need to be cooking! Will definitely return and stay here again, couple of minor little niggles, shower was very slow to drain, apartment would probably benefit from a good spring clean but was perfectly presentable just a few cobwebs here and there, one last thing was the recycling and refuse setup, specifies orange bags must be used but none supplied. Judging by the wheelie bins it was the same for the other apartments there. All minor things though doesn't take away from it being a wonderful place to base yourself.

    It was quite a climb each time from the road. The steps up to the apartment are steep. The view from the apartment was excellent The parking was good. The apartment was spacious although the bathroom situated off the kitchen wasn't ideal. The equipment in the kitchen was OK but the kitchen had issues which I will get to. The bedroom would benefit from a full length mirror. Now the downside. The blind in the kitchen doesn't work We dropped something down the back of the fridge so I lifted the Microwave from the top to pull the fridge out. The top of the fridge is bowed and was full of water. I cleaned it up but by the end of the week it was starting to fill again. The fridge itself has not been de-frosted for a very long time with about 2" ice up the side. When I pulled the fridge out it is clear that this has not been cleaned for a long time with lots of spiders webs down the back. We were in Keswick next day and I called in the office and reported it as I believe the fridge is a safety hazard and needs immediate attention. The two ladies said they would report it but we noticed they didn't write anything down. we noticed the toilet seat was faulty with a crack in the hinge. Next day I rang and reported it and the fridge and the man I spoke to asked me to leave the key in the key safe and they would get someone out to look at both problems and in either case he would ring and keep me informed. Nobody came and we never got a phone call. My wife dropped and ear ring down the back of the bedside cupboard so lifted the cupboard out only to find more cobwebs and and old bill going back to last May. We were of the opinion the apartment had a deep clean. Obviously not. Other issues. Two bulbs out, one I replaced. The shower would benefit from a mat as it is a bit slippery. The TV reception was intermittent, I had to re-programme it twice. As the TV could get Netflix and catch-up channels it would help to mention that in the details and suggest people bring their password with them. The front door mortice lock was sometime difficult to work. There was no welcome basket (which we had from our last apartment only two months ago) Only one toilet roll, no kitchen roll, no salt & pepper. Would we go to High Borrans again - NO Would we use Heart Of The Lakes again - Due to lack of communication and making sure the apartment is up to standards. NO .

About the location

AMBLESIDE

Grasmere 4.4 miles; Windermere 4.7 miles; Keswick 16.7 miles.

Lying at the northern tip of Lake Windermere, England’s largest lake, Ambleside makes a superb base for touring the central Lakes, with Grasmere and the Langdale Valley just a short drive away. There is plenty to do here - cruises, boat trips and watersports on Lake Windermere itself and numerous shops, restaurants and pubs in the village to suit all tastes. On the lakeside at Waterhead, the parkland offers lovely views down the lake and a short stretch of beach, whilst a walk in the other direction, following Stock Ghyll through woodland, will bring you to the entrancing waterfall of Stock Ghyll Force. Along with the Lake and the great walking on offer, Ambleside is also famous for its annual rushbearing ceremony and the diminutive 17th century “Bridge House” - one of the most photographed buildings in the Lake District and now the National Trust Information Centre.
