  • "Beautiful apartment with stunning views over Windermere."

    10 minute walk into Ambleside and there's even a bus stop outside the main entrance should you wish to take a ride to Keswick or kendal. Read a lot about the parking space being tight, we have a nissan juke and had no issues whatsoever. One gripe though only minor, there's only one toiler role which is a bit off when you're paying so much to stay in a luxury apartment. Come on, you could leave few more, going shopping on day 1 isn't on my holiday wish list. Would certainly stay here again though.

  • "Worth it for the view alone."

    Balcony is a lovely place to sit but if it rains you can still see the view from the sofa/chair. Our second time visiting this apartment and we'd happily come back. Would suggest the provision of a kitchen spray to keep the counters clean and hygienic - every other self-catering place we stay in provides such a thing. The parking space is narrow but you can drive up another level and park in the unnumbered parking space there.

  • "We were at Lake View last year and 16 Romney Grange the previous 3 years However we were a little disappointed with the balcony at Lake View as some of the tiles were not only loose but could be lifted."

    .. as we are both in our 70's and like Lake View but if this is not repaired by then we will cease to visit the Romney Grange site

    Thank you for taking the time to leave feedback. We are sorry to hear that you were disappointed with the balcony. We will ask our Property Services Team to look into the points raised. We hope to welcome you to the Lakes again. The Lakelovers Owner Relations Team Property Owner

    It was everything it said and more, the apartment was spotless and the best equipped that we have ever stayed in. My wife didn’t want to leave and we are already looking at rebooking for next year

    Fully and well equipped. Storage heater chilly on first evening and instructions could be made a bit clearer. Really enjoyed stay and will be back.

  • "We enjoyed a very pleasant week in this 2nd floor Apartment with superb views over Windermere Waterhead Landing and as far as Langdale Pikes."

    The Apartment is very well equipped with top of the range kitchen, oven and fridge/freezer. The welcome pack was very basic with no washing up liquid but we had read previous reviews and had packed supplies to last out the week. The Apartment was well heated and the bed was very comfortable. All in all, a very relaxing break after a hectic Christmas period. Bus stops outside meant that we could visit locations and go walking around Ambleside, Rydal Water, Grasmere and Bowness and the weather was kind to us.

    Thank you for your feedback. As this is a self catering accommodation, washing up liquid is not provided. We are glad that you enjoyed the property and all that the area has to offer. Especially that you were able to get some good relaxing time after Christmas. Lakelovers Owner Team Property Owner

  • "Views are lovely, overall we had a great stay."

    It’s a shame there is a lack of thought with the essentials that are left - very limited washing up liquid, one roll of toilet roll and no hand wash/soap isn’t great. These are not things I would expect to need to bring to a holiday property.

    Thank you for your comments, we are pleased to hear that you enjoyed your stay. As the property is self catering, we do not always provide washing up liquid etc. We take all comments on board. Thank you. Property Owner

    The only thing I would have liked to have known before hand is that the parking was between four support posts. Would not stop us returning was just awful to park.

  • "The views from this property are spectacular."

    The building is a little dated as is the bathroom in the apartment. The equipment was basic and unlike every property we have previously stayed in there were no kitchen basics ie washing up liquid, welcome pack and only one loo roll. Also no mattress protector on the bed! On the positive side, there were instructions for every appliance and information in folders about local facilities. As others have said the parking is tight but was fine for us. We were fortunate to have a discounted price for late booking but we would not pay the full price now we know the property.

  • "Excellent apartment with outstanding views across Lake Windermere as it's greatest attraction."

    Provision of large fan much appreciated for when the sun shone. Lovely little balcony to enjoy the view from wicker chairs provided, with a glass of wine in hand. The apartment is well appointed with everything anyone would need and very comfortable and clean. The only downside is the parking bay provided is very tight to access with 4 pillars to navigate. We would however be very happy to return here.

    Thanks for the wonderful review, if you feel the parking space is a bit tight,you could use the visitor bays which don't have posts. Property Owner

  • "The view was amazing and we loved the balcony."

    We could have stayed forever just looking at the lake and mountains. Beautiful. The parking is between posts so be aware if you have a larger car. Would've like a few more cleaning products - there was no disinfectant spray for the kitchen surfaces for instance. The hoover was also not emptied from the previous use(s). Overall though a really fab apartment in a wonderful position. We will definetly stay again!

  • "What a wonderful place!"

    I actually gasped when we opened the front door and saw the view - it was even better than I had hoped for. The flat was ideal in every way - it had everything we needed (except a tea tray) and because the weather was so good we had difficulty tearing ourselves away from the balcony, but when we did, it was an ideal location for walking, catching boats and driving to other parts of the Lake District. We would definitely like to return and friends who’ve seen our photos are interested in staying too. We’d recommend it to anyone - provided they don’t want to stay when we do!

  • "A comfortable apartment with fantastic views."

    Check in information very detailed with further details in apartment about facilities. Parking space was a little tight as mentioned in property details. Beautiful views of the lake and a balcony to enjoy on warmer days. The bed was comfortable and sound proofing pretty good in the block, we slept well. Appreciated the request for quiet closing of heavy doors as we like a quiet place to stay. We found the apartment spacious and comfortable for two of us with all the facilities we needed. After a days walking the lift was appreciated to the 2nd floor. Well placed for walking into Ambleside for shopping, a meal out or exploring. Also an ideal base for going further in the Lake District. We kayaked on Windermere and also took a boat trip to Bowness. Other recent feedback mentioned the high price of the apartment. For a penthouse apartment with a beautiful lake view, balcony and parking we thought it was reasonable. The couple staying in the next apartment were repeat visitors to the block, having stayed in all the rental apartments.

    We had a great week here and enjoying the balcony was a highlight. It is not accurate to describe the apartment as ‘luxury’ and the massive twenty five percent price increase for the same week next year cannot be justified and means that we will not return.

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.
