  You had thought of everything that we could need. The bedroom was fantastic. The little safety light on the landing was brilliant. Everything about the place was superb. Thank you very much for a great stay in Ambleside

• "Our stay in Juniper Cottage was everything we hoped it would be."

  The booking itself was very easy and I liked the way we had updates before our holiday, it was all very straightforward. The cottage was very comfortable and lovely to come back to after a day out. It was very well equipped with everything we could possibly need, the bed was very comfortable and the parking outside was a bonus. we would definitely book again and recommend it to others.

• "Great cottage and location would be happy to return."

  I am not convinced that it is reasonable to ask guests to strip the bed on departure; whereas it is reasonable to ask that the accommodation is left clean and tidy.

• "Although the cottage is in a great location for getting around the Lake District it is very dated and not particularly clean!"

  !! I removed the sheets when I was leaving to find a huge urine stain on the mattress cover which actually smelt and the owner would not accept any responsibility for this!!!! I was disgusted to think I had spent a week in this bed!!!!

• "This was my third time at the cottage so I knew what to expect."

  The cottage was clean and comfortable and provided everything I required. The only thing I will mention is that the Wi-Fi signal is very weak but I assume that’s due to the location of the cottage.

  Thank you so much for your kind comments. We are glad that you enjoyed your return visit to the property. Lakelovers Owner Team Property Owner

• "On arriving at Juniper Cottage we were very pleased parking and location was great."

  On opening the door the porch was dirty cobwebs on the floor, kitchen was clean, the living area was dusty, upstairs the bathroom hadn’t been cleaned dark hairs in the bath, and a dirty floor. The bedroom was okay but on stripping the bed the mattress cover was stained. I can only conclude that the owner rely’s on the previous weeks tenants to clean the property as we left it in a better state than we found it.

  Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry that the cleanliness was not up to standard, this is something we take very seriously and we will pass all your comments on. The owner relations team - Lakes Cottage Holidays Property Owner

  I am an amateur photographer and the property is in an ideal location for where I want to take photographs. The on-sight parking and closeness to the centre of Ambleside is also a bonus. My only criticism of the property is that it is quite dark inside.

• "We really enjoyed our time at juniper cottage ,accommodation had all you could wish for,clean ,cozy,and comfortable ,also very close to the centre of ambleside only a 5 minute walk ,my only small concern was regarding our little dog ."

  As the cottage more or less was open to a main road and no garden it made it a bit awkward as the nearest place to exercise her was rothay park a 15 minute walk down a steep hill ,otherwise can't fault at all.

  The kitchen contained a lot of equipment and was set out in a very convenient way. The cottage was warm and the bed was extremely comfortable. It was in a particularly convenient location for Ambleside and the car parking space saved a lot of searching and expense.

  A big bonus was onsite parking. The cottage is small but was fine for the two of us. One or two areas were a little dusty but overall the place was clean and tidy on arrival. There was everything we needed in the cottage for our stay. Definite choice for another visit to Ambleside.

• "This is a lovely, well appointed cottage in a great location, close to the town centre but avoiding the one way system allowing easy access."

  The house is too hot! The heating system had labels on throughout the house asking not to be turned off. At this time of year when some days temperatures were in the high twenties this was just madness and meant that we had to have the windows open 24/7. This can’t be environmentally friendly or economical. There is a strange smell permeating from the under stairs cupboard. We masked it with spray but it might need looking at and identifying We would stay here again

• "The cottage is in a great location, had good facilities and on the face of it is an excellent place to stay, but on arrival the bathroom was unclean - apparent urine behind the toilet seat, down the back of the toilet, in the bowl, and a drip on the floor."

  The sink was also grimy as was the bath. It clearly hasn’t had a proper clean for a long time as it’s very dusty above the bathroom mirror and also around the skirting boards. The kitchen bin also hadn’t been emptied from the previous occupants. The cleanliness needs to be addressed as you don’t want to travel hundreds of miles to do what the cleaner should be doing. I emailed Sykes twice and had no response. Unfortunately for these reasons I wouldn’t stay again.

• "Really well equipped cottage,great base for a walking holiday."

  The only slight downside is that there is no garden ,and if like us you have a dog,there is at least a 5 minute walk to the local park for them to go to the toilet,not great last thing at night,or first thing in the morning.

  There were even baking tins and scales - I could have baked a cake if I'd had time. We had our own parking, it was within walking distance of the town, and was quiet and peaceful. The furnishings were comfortable and clean and the bedroom was lovely. It was great to come 'home' to at the end of a day on the fells. The lobby had shelves for our boots & rucksacks and there was a radiator too, so that our things dried, without cluttering the rest of the house up.

• "The cottage was as it was described, very comfortable , clean and ideally situated for us."

  Close to all local amenities and on site parking was an advantage. Only slight disappointment was in regards supplies. We had one toilet roll for two people for a week. We had a third of a kitchen roll and a small amount of washing up liquid. We didn’t have any soap powder. With other cottages there has always been an adequate supply of such items, not sure if that’s what we should expect. That said it didn’t spoil our holiday and have already booked another holiday for 2019 with Sykes Cottages.

• "Cottage was lovely,clean and warm and we would definitely stay there again."

  My only slight issue was the note that was left to strip the bed linen on departure. I think it is reasonable to ask visitors to leave the cottage clean and tidy but it is unreasonable to expect them to have to do everything as you would expect the property to be re-cleaned thoroughly before the next guests arrive. There are hotels that charge less money and you would not be expected to do that for them.
