• "Lovely cottage and great location."

  Very difficult to dry clothes in a wet week in August. Beds really comfy and cot set up before arrival but chairs and sofas were not ideal for sitting.

  Great to hear that you enjoyed the cottage and its location. Although there is no dryer, we do have an airing cupboard on the upstairs Ianding which can be used to air any damp clothes. Sorry to hear that the suite was not to your liking. Kind regards, Chris & Mike. Property Owner

  All you need for a great relaxing holiday is provided.Location is perfect and the car park immediately outside the cottage is a big big plus ! This was our fourth stay in Four Seasons Cottage and we were absolutely delighted with everything once again.

  Near to all the shops and bars that Ambleside has to offer, still very quiet, with added bonus of on-site parking. Already booked a return visit next year.

• "We had a lovely week at Four Seasons Cottage, it's a great base for exploring the area."

  The house is really well kept and clean and has everything that you need for your stay in terms of kitchen equipment and utensils. The bed was very comfortable and we slept really well. It was great having a parking space outside the property, although we did have an inconsiderate neighbour with an excessively big car that used to make getting in to the space difficult, but that's no reflection on the size of the parking spaces that would be perfectly big enough in normal circumstances! There's plenty to do around the area, both close to home and if you want to travel further afield, and we did both. We'll definitely book to stay here again when we come back to Ambleside.

  Thanks so much for your lovely comments! We’re so glad that you found the cottage to be a great base with everything you needed during your stay. We too find the cottage to be in a great location, whether walking into Ambleside or jumping in the car to visit further afield. Kind regards, Chris & Mike, the owners. Property Owner

• "Excellent location, everything needed for stay included."

  Very cosy. Already booked again for 3rd stay. Just a note to say you may want to stop the ivy climbing up by the front door. Will look a mess if/when decide to take down. Could damage the slates.

  Thank you so much for the lovely feedback, it will be lovely to have you back to the cottage for your third stay! We will soon be taking a break in the cottage and will definitely check out the ivy situation. It sound like it’s grown considerably since our last trip.

• "Lovely cottage, very clean, comfortable & cosy."

  We travelled up by train, so it was really convenient for walking out from the door and catching the bus.

  Thank you so much for the great feedback. We too find that the cottage is in a great position to explore the surrounding areas and is only a short walk into Ambleside itself which is ideal. Kind regards, Chris & Mike, the owners. Property Owner

• "We liked the clean and modern condition of the property- this was our second stay."

  Noticed the fire in the living room area is still not working and the chair there is not comfortable.

  Many thanks for your feedback. We hope that the lack of an electric fire didn’t affect your stay too much. The cottage has full central heating so should have been lovely and warm during your holiday. Sorry to hear that the seating wasn’t to your liking. Kind regards, Chris & Mike, the owners.

• "Excellent cottage in a great location with an added bonus of a parking space right outside."

  Nice and peaceful with easy access to everything we wanted for our holiday. Really enjoyed our time and would recommend the property to anyone . Just a couple of suggestions that we thin would make things a little better for guests 1) Have some hand soap in kitchen as when preparing food etc this would be useful. 2) Only 1 toilet roll available - did not find any replacements - not sure if this was stated on the booking etc but we brought some just in case. Overall a very nice cottage which fully met our expectations - thank you very much Paul and Jamie Samuel

  Many thanks for the great feedback, we’re so glad you enjoyed your stay! A bottle of hand wash is usually provided in the kitchen and bathroom, apologies this was overlooked. As a rule, at least one toilet roll is supplied during each stay. Kindest regards, the owners Property Owner

• "Lovely property, very clean and well equipped, good location, and very comfortable."

  Only a minor thing, a chopping board would have been nice in addition to the glass heatproof worktop board. We would book again as the property is lovely but, the only thing that would potentially put us off is the fact that there is no washing machine. We did know this when we booked and there is a launderette nearby, but who wants to spend their precious holiday time in a launderette?

  Many thanks for your feedback, It’s great to hear that you enjoyed your stay! We take on board all the comments and hope you will consider staying with us again. Kind regards, the owners. Property Owner

  Shame fire in sitting area was not working. Bath could benefit from a grab handle on wall side.

• "Second time here for New Year's Eve."

  Impressed by cleanliness and facilities the first time and glad to see the high standards maintained ( with exception of mattress covers which were stained). Close to everything you need in Ambleside and as a poor sleeper the extra cozy little bedroom is really handy.

  Thank you for your kind feedback, we are so glad that you enjoyed your stay at Four Seasons Cottage. The mattress protector has been removed for cleaning and we would like to assure you that they are changed on a regular basis to maintain the high level of cleanliness that we like (unfortunately tanning products create a lot of issues that require deep cleaning/replacing of items) Kind regards, the owners.

• "Our second stay at Four Seasons Cottage."

  Though small it is really conveniently situated only a couple of minutes level walk from all the facilities of Ambleside. A great base from which to explore the surrounding fells. Easy off road parking and an excellent rainfall shower in the bathroom are big plus’s to the property. The cottage is well maintained and was very clean on arrival. One minor criticism; the leather sofa and armchair are very deep (for smaller adults) a few more cushions would be appreciated. We enjoyed our stay, thanks.

  Thank you for returning to Four Seasons which in itself is great for us to see! Your feedback is greatly appreciated and we will look into providing extra cushions for our guests. Kind regards, the owners. Property Owner

  In terms of comfort, Cleanliness and the provision of facilities we were extremely happy. If we had to make any criticism which on a minor basis isn't really necessary, we would just like to mention the addition of the following comforts. Small touches such as waste paper bins, boxes of tissues, bin bags and spare light bulbs would crown a otherwise perfect stay in to an unbeatable standard.

  Thank you for your feedback which is greatly appreciated and all your comments have been noted. We will ensure that waste paper bins and extra bin bags are provided. Heart Of The Lakes maintenance team are always on hand to replace lightbulbs and deal with any issues which may arise during your stay. Unfortunately we don’t tend to leave spare lightbulbs in the property as in the past these have been removed along with batteries from clocks etc. kind regards, the owners. Property Owner

• "Compact cottage which suited our needs , place was spotless when we arrived."

  Could possibly do with a bit more crockery but apart from that we enjoyed our stay. We couldn’t get shower temperature as hot as we would have liked but was working fine. Bed was very comfy with spare pillows etc supplied. No issues with heating, Hive timer ensured always warm throughout. The entrance vestibule was always very cold and wasn’t really suitable to drying wet clothing or shoes - well not in February anyway! Would still recommend and would consider staying in Four Seasons in future.

  Many thanks for your feedback. The shower can be set to the ideal temperature with a pop up button on the right hand tap. If this needs to be altered, this can be done by turning the tap either forward or backwards to suit (instructions in guest book provided) As there is no heating in the small entrance hall, the upstairs landing cupboard can be used for airing damp clothing during the wet weather.

  Blinds or nets at the window . There was only curtains so for privacy having to close the curtains all day. No washing machine which was disappointing you need that . Also no hair dryer which I couldn’t believe I had to leave my hair wet wasn’t good.

  Thanks for your feedback. The cottage is situated in a small, private and quiet courtyard with six other properties. Privacy has never been raised as an issue prior to this year, but as it has been commented on twice, it is something we are looking into. Hairdryers will soon be provided. With regards to a washing machine, we do not list this as a facility as there is currently none available in the property. Best regards. Property Owner

• "I had to buy a hairdryer and an egg cup - pretty basic/standard items - no big deal but would have been good if these had already been installed in the cottage."

  Some vertical/privacy blinds would be nice - as the sofa faces the car park we were on show and so not very relaxing unless the curtains were closed. We love pet free propertys - much more hygienic, thank you. But unfortunately during our 2nd week Juniper Cottage/next door had a dog which barked in the middle of the night and ruined a couple of days holiday as were so tired - not nice being woken at 3.30 a.m. on more than one occasion. Obviously this is out of your hands but I think you should be made aware that this can be an issue. Happy for you to publish my feedback if ANONYMOUS. Thank you.
