"We had a wonderful time - our 14th family visit to Ambleside and area and Rose Cottage did not let us down."
It was worth the 8 hour drive for sure! The cottage was beautiful, ideally located for morning dog walks up to the foot of Fairfield and for strolls around beautiful Ambleside. Many thanks to Richard for his communications and to both he and Saskia for creating such a superb home from home.

"We recently had the pleasure of staying at Rose Cottage in Ambleside, and it was an experience to remember."
From the moment we stepped through the door, we were struck by the immaculate condition of the property. It genuinely felt as though we were the very first guests to have the privilege of staying there. The attention to detail in every aspect of the cottage made it feel like a true home away from home.
The location of Rose Cottage is absolutely perfect. Nestled in the heart of Ambleside, it provided easy access to the stunning Lake Windermere, picturesque walks, and all the charming local amenities. We couldn’t have asked for a better base to explore the Lake District.
Being dog-friendly was a massive bonus for us, and our dog felt right at home. The cottage was equipped with everything we could possibly need, and it was clear that a lot of thought had gone into making it comfortable for both humans and pets alike.
The owner was a delight to deal with—warm, welcoming, and incredibly thoughtful. Upon our arrival, we were greeted with a delightful goody box containing chocolates, wine, and even treats for our dog. It was a lovely touch that made our stay even more special.
As for the views, they were nothing short of spectacular. Waking up to the sight of the surrounding hills and enjoying a morning coffee while soaking in the beauty of the area was one of the highlights of our stay. The tranquillity and natural beauty of the location provided the perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.
In conclusion, Rose Cottage exceeded our expectations in every way. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay, and we would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a beautiful, comfortable, and welcoming retreat in Ambleside. We can’t wait to return!
Thank you so much for your comments, that really is a ‘dream review’ to receive and makes all our hard work worthwhile. We look forward to welcoming you back to Rose Cottage soon and hope that we continue to live up to your glowing comments. With warmest regards, Richard & Saskia.

"Rose Cottage is a fantastic house!"
The design and quality of the fixtures and furnishings is superb. We stay in Ambleside every year, it's our favourite place for a relaxing family holiday.
Rose Cottage is definitely one of the best cottages we have stayed in. It's centrally located so you can walk to restaurants, shops, pubs etc very easily. Although being opposite The Apple Pie Shop was a huge temptation (my sister is obsessed with their Bath Buns)!
The owners were very helpful and friendly, and all the information needed for the stay was easy to find.
Fantastic cottage, fantastic location, fantastic hosts!

Fabulous central location. Outstanding facilities. Plenty of space for a large family. Yes it’s close to the road and unloading and loading the car wasn’t possible on the roadside but we just carried our things from the car park. The M6 was closed on Friday so the traffic was extremely busy through Ambleside but that didn’t spoil our stay. We will return!!!

Perfect location for all of Amblesides pubs, restaurants & shops plus such a convenient starting point for many lovely walks.
Lovely comfortable furnishings & great quality beds & bedding (the only place ever that we shouldn't have bothered bringing our own pillows!)
The kitchen was well equipped with everything I needed to cook when we wanted to eat in & enjoy the beautiful accommodation.
The snug overlooking the beck is so special, a lovely comfy sofa & super sized telly if you can tear your eyes from the view.
There's a brilliant drying room for coats & boots.
