• "Not the traditional Lake District cottage we would normally choose but the view from the apartment was outstanding."

  Comfortable, clean and spacious. Situated up a steepish lane with views over Ambleside and the fells behind. It was situated in an elevated position but was a short distance to the town down a footpath. Definitely recommend

  Thank you for taking the time to leave us positive feedback. We hope you had a lovely break! Property Owner

• "The property is beautiful - stunning views."

  Owner needs to be aware that there appears to be a problem with the toaster. Every time we used it the electrics were tripped in the kitchen. There was a hand written note in the property information pack warning us of this issue, and advising how to reset at the fuse box. Notice that the last PAT test label on the toaster was dated 2021…..

  Thank you very much for your feedback. We are very pleased that you loved the views. Thank you also for alerting us to the faulty toaster which we have now replaced. We apologise for this inconvenience during your stay. Property Owner

  Very clean and has everything you could need and more. Great views too while you drink your morning coffee on the patio.

• "What a view!"

  The best apt we've ever had in the Lakes, so comfy and warm, and all mod cons. Great to come back to after a day on the fells, and near to all amenities such as shops and restaurants. Good bus service too to Windermere and Grasmere, so we never moved the car!! My husband did a lovely oil painting of your view. We will definitely return.

  Fantastic! We are so glad you had such a great holiday. Thank you for your review - you have very nicely summed up why we love the place so much and can imagine how wonderful the painting must be! Property Owner

• "Having stayed in The Lakeland complex many times Pavey Ark really hit the spot for us."

  As part of my 75th birthday celebrations it really helped to make it a very memorable birthday for all the right reasons. We will be delighted to return possibly in the winter months when the area is always that bit quieter. Can't wait to see the beauty of Ambelside from the patio of Pavey Ark in the not to distant future.

  Thank you for your super feedback. We are so glad that you had a great time! Best wishes. Property Owner

• "What a fabulous place to stay!"

  Over the years we have stayed in apartments in all 3 blocks at The Lakeland’s and this was by far the best. From the super comfy bed and seating unit to the very well equipped kitchen what more could we have wanted. We will definitely be back probably at a later time in the year when hopefully we can enjoy the patio area in the sunshine.

  We are so pleased to read that you have had such a good stay and found the apartment so comfortable! Thank you for taking the time to leave your review. Property Owner

  The views are superb and the apartment was so comfortable and very clean - we loved it and can't wait to return. It is close to the centre of Ambleside and has everything you could need. The apartment was very warm during our stay. The bottle of Prosecco and map, left in the kitchen, were also a nice surprise. All the facilities were first class.

  Tin opener didn’t work and couldn’t find chopping boards but a phone call remedied this. We did eventually find several boards hidden in a cupboard. Generally very pleased with the accommodation. This is the second time we’ve been and hopefully will return.

  Thank you for your comments. We will take up the points you raised with our cleaning service. We hope you had a good stay and would love to welcome you back. Property Owner

• "The property was very comfortable and well-equipped, with thought given to those little things that are often over-looked in holiday lettings."

  The property is spacious, bed & lounge comfortable, bathroom large & modern, and kitchen had all equipment needed to cook meals. View from the property is fabulous, and access to the village is very easy and walkable. Good collection of walking books, and great place to come back to after a long day in the fells. Would absolutely come back again, and also recommend this property to others.

• "Fabulous view from a very spacious apartment."

  It was very clean and comfortable with a great shower room. Only critique - please update the wardrobe area in living room as it was not attractive at all (so outdated). Also coffee table has seen better days and needs replacing. I would definitely go back if it could be updated a little. Thank you also for the Prosecco - lovely thought.

  We hope you had a good holiday. The coffee table is in fact 'new', we purchased this recently from a local charity / enterprise, its made from reclaimed timber, we are sorry it wasn't to your taste. Thanks for the feedback, which we will take on board. Property Owner

  Everything that you could need has been thought about, making for a truly relaxing stay. There are cosy blankets, sandwich bags for picnics, washing up tools and even a complimentary Harry Potter scrabble board for your enjoyment! It's a very spacious apartment with the most spectacular views a few footsteps away from the main Ambleside streets, yet far enough to offer peace and tranquility. We cannot wait to go again.

  The apartment is positioned only a couple of minutes walk from the centre of Ambleside. We did not have to use our car at all during our weeks stay as there are so many incredible walks on the doorstep. The apartment was very comfortable, especially the Super King bed. It had everything we needed and had a view spectacular to boot. Many thanks for a great stay.

• "Was very disappointed with not being able to use the pool/leasure centre."

  Nothing was mentioned when booking that it would be closed... it did state that you had to bring your own towels and not use the ones out of holiday home, so one would presume it was open to use...Have used it many times before.

  I am sorry to hear about this confusion. This property does not have the use of a pool. I have checked through websites that currently advertise Pavey Ark (which all lead through to the Lakelovers website) but am unable to find any that mention a pool. This may have been possible with a previous holiday company that you used to arrange your previous stays. I am sorry this tainted your stay with us. Property Owner

• "Excellent large apartment with wonderful views out across the town & fells."

  The lift was a great facility and, a necessity, as there were many stairs down to the ground floor. The kitchen was very well equipped and the shower en suite was very large and luxurious. The apartment is also a very short, but steep, distance into town which was ideal. Our only problem was the size of the parking bays. We have a medium sized car which would have been ok but the guest next to us had a large car. This made accessing our driver's door one morning impossible.

• "We found Pavey Ark to be an outstanding holiday property and a new favourite for us."

  It is well located high enough over Ambleside to give excellent views over the town, Loughrigg and the Fairfield ridges, while being only a 5 minutes walk into the town. The huge west facing windows in the bedroom and lounge let in lots of light and the views. The apartment is very well equipped and comfortable: there's a bathroom and a shower room, the bed is two 3 footers tied together, the lounge has a huge comfy sofa with lots of big cushions, the dining area is huge, there's a real sense of space. There's lots of big electric convection heaters; two in the lounge/diner, one in the hall and one in the bedroom plus a blower in the bathroom. Users have control over boost and temperature (though the one in the hall was on Childlock, so we couldn't turn it off). We were really warm. Though a blower in the ensuite wouldn't go amiss. The parking place is long and easy to get in and out of, though the instructions say it's called "15 High Pike", when it's actually "15 Brathay Stewart" and that had us a bit worried at first. Overall 99/100 and I'd be amazed if we don't return.

  Thank you for your fantastic feedback which we were thrilled to read. We will address the parking place confusion - yes it is presently signposted as 15 Brathay Stewart and this will be changed to 15 Pavey Ark. Thanks again and hope to welcome you back sometime. Property Owner

• "Had a fantastic stay in your property, really comfortable, especially the bed, can you share the make and supplier, would love one in my house, although don't know if I'd ever get up for work again (hee hee)!"

  ! Only problem we found was the TV, unwatchable during windy weather, choice of channels was very limited compared to Blackpool, don't know if this is a regional thing or just your TV (and reception). Overall a very good experience, thank you. ps: Kitchen equipment was brilliant, could find everything we needed, and lots we didn't, good job!!

  Thanks for your review. I am so pleased you had a fantastic stay. I will check out the make of bed and get back to you! Sorry to hear the TV channels were limited. I assume this was the terrestrial TV in the bedroom. I have considered the limitations of this and have decided to replace this TV for a smart TV. Thanks again Property Owner
