• "Came to the lakes to celebrate my husbands birthday."

  Cottage was lovely and clean, really comfy beds and everything you need for a self catering holiday. Cosy rooms and fab log burner. If your on the tall side the one single bedroom in the roof space has quite low ceilings. Only small issue would be the sound of the traffic from around 6.30-7am as cottage is just off a busy main road. Cottage is really close to Ambleside and if you don't want to walk or drive , taxis are excellent and readily available. Lovely little courtyard to sit out in and quaint garden just over the main road to overlook the river. Would definitely return.

  Thank you for your feedback, I'm glad your husband had a lovely Birthday. Property Owner

• "Charming, comfortable cottage which is very well equipped."

  Super comfy beds. The kids especially liked the beds on the mezzanine area. Bathroom is modern with a fabulous shower. Has everything you need to make your stay very comfortable. Only very minor negatives were a big splash of bird muck on the kitchen window which had been there for some time. Also, it would be good to have at least one spare toilet roll.

  Single beds up in the attic fine for kids but a no No for adults constantly hitting heads on beams. No where to hang clothes upstairs and have to share a chest of drawers. On a busy road, very noisy from early morning. French doors is living room very drafty . Kitchen very well equipped, comfy sofas and beds. But sorry we won't return.

• "A lovely well equipped cottage."

  Super comfy bed. Good parking. It was very cold when we arrived and it took some time to fathom out how to get the heating on but we managed with the help of the management staff. A thermostat on the wall would be so much easier than pushing buttons on the boiler or maybe a card with simple instructions?

  Thank you so much for your kind comments and your suggestion of a simple instruction card on the boiler, that's a great idea which we will sort when we're next there. Glad you had a good time. Property Owner

• "We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Courtyard Cottage."

  It was very comfortable with everything that we could possibly need during our stay. We only had one slight problem which was that the clock on the central heating boiler was at the wrong time. Hence the heating was on at odd times. We managed to put the heating on manually when required as we didn't know how to change the clock time. It looked as if there may have been a power cut. We left a note on the work top to bring this to the cleaners attention.

  We're so pleased you enjoyed your stay at Courtyard Cottage. Thank you for letting us know about the timer on the boiler As you have already mentioned there have been a couple of power cuts recently which look to have thrown it out. We shall get it sorted Property Owner

  Comfortable bed with good quality linen and super shower. Although advertised as sleep four, feel it is only ideal for maybe couple with two children, who would love the quirky upstairs layout.

  I realise it’s been replaced in the last couple of years but wrong decision made about mattress type. My back suffered for 7 nights. I have also seen negative reviews regarding the mattress. We love this cottage and have many wonderful memories. Stayed here at least 6 times over the years but can’t go back unless the mattress is replaced. Cleaning ladies were lovely and did a great job.

  I'm sorry to see that our mattress didn't seem to suit you. As you have mentioned both the bed and an award winning "Emma" mattress were new March 2022 and we have received nothing but positive feedback since their installation. Pleased that everything else seemed to be good. Property Owner

• "The cottage was perfect for three of us and our labrador especially as first timers to the Lake District."

  The location was perfect. The owners have thought of pretty much everything and the family touch wasn’t lost on us. Thank you for all the literature and the comprehensive welcome pack! Despite the road noise outside it was quiet and we didn't hear any other people nearby. It is very well equipped, as others have said. Never have I come home with clean washing! Didn't need to bring any household stuff at all as all supplied. We used the garden a couple of times - it's across a faiy busy road but has beautiful river views- and was secure to let the dog have some exercise. We enjoyed the wood burner (even in July) and bought wood from the garage in Ambleside or the garden centre. Ambleside is a 10-15 minute walk- it was great not to have to use the car to get food etc. The parking is right outside the cottage. Would definitely stay again.

  Although 2 minor niggles and they are very minor. The first is that its right next to the road, but in fairness nothing can be done with that. The second was no toilet brush. It was so good that we have to say we would consider booking again. Location was great for walking into Ambleside and the garden across the road to chill out, décor etc were to a high standard and really enjoyed our stay

  We're so pleased you've enjoyed your stay and our property. Not sure what has happened to the toilet brush though? It was there 2 weeks ago when we were up. I shall see if i can see what has happened to it and if not we'll get a replacement up. Hope to have you back again soon. Property Owner

• "Beautiful cottage to stay in."

  Great facilities and the best equipped kitchen of a holiday cottage we have stayed at!! Nice to chill out in the evening by the river or in the cottage. Is next to the road but you get used to the cars. Is dog friendly, but glad we have a dog crate as there was no where to put her/shut her away when she was wet and muddy/drying off. Close enough to Ambleside to be able to walk and join onto hiking trails. Also able to hike to Loughrigg Fell from the cottage. The Wateredge pub/bar is worth a visit with lovely views over Windermere!

  As my wife will tell you I do like a good moan and having spent the last 30 years staying in five star hotels around the world I think I’m suitably qualified in rating accommodation. On this occasion though I’ve actually got nothing to moan about!! Great little cottage with everything you’d need. Very clean and tidy, bedding crisp and fresh, modern decor including the bathroom, WiFi that worked and above all else a great base for travelling around and exploring what the Lake District has to offer.

• "Let me start with, the property is great."

  but when we arrived 3rd December the heating was switched off and the cottage was freezing ieven with the fire pit burning half of the bags of wood we brought it still took most of Saturday and Sunday morning to warm up. the shower was not draining away .. almost over flowing after 1 / 2 minutes use . I found that the drain outside in the court yard was blocked ..with grease and leaves. After cleaning this and using bleach to unblock this cleared . .

  Thank you for your comments. I'm sorry you had problems warming the cottage up, it looks like you visited shortly after the abnormally warm spell of weather we had in November and my guess is that the heating hadn't been used for a while. The cottage is, of course an older building and can take a bit of time to warm up, we usually ask that our Winter visitors leave the heating permanently on low to keep the cottage toasty for other visitors. Thank you so much for sorting the drains out too, whilst you were there. The maintenance team at HOTL are always on hand to deal with issues like that, but we are very grateful to you for tackling it yourself. We hope that you will come back again soon Property Owner

  The double bed and mattress has been replaced and is EXTREMELY comfy. The communal gardens and grounds were very well maintained. The cottage was the perfect home away from home and we will definitely be returning. The property was slightly dusty with cobwebs however what do you expect when staying in an old, stone cottage? Couple of things to note: take logs to use on the fire as these were not provided, we were only provided 1 toilet roll for our 1 week stay, salt/pepper and oil are also needed, upon check-out at 10am the cleaner arrived at 9.50am so we felt a little rushed to get out of the way.

  After reading the note re heating issues, I had to call maintenance to check out error codes flashing on boiler once turned on. I tried to set up the Cot bed however one of the sides wouldn’t click into place. Called through to maintenance again. The gentlemen advised “sometimes the hinges go”. I’d have hoped that this would have been checked before arrival to the property, again HOTL were aware we were traveling with baby under 1. The maintenance men were quick to arrive with a second cot. My mother Hoovered the carpet the morning after our arrival. She managed to fill the vacuum with dust and hair, was property not hoovered before arriving? Smelly large stain on main bed throw, this was hidden by scatter cushions and only noticed whilst getting into bed. Pillows and bedding upstairs dusty, bedding unlikely to have been changed / washed if previous guests did not use. Sofas had not been cleaned as dust and mess had gathered underneath. I found two game pieces which I have put in games cupboard. Kitchen blinds are thick with dust. Microwave was not cleaned. When it came to needing to use it to sterilise baby bottles we had to give it a good clean beforehand. Unsure if the mattress had been changed but the right side of the bed slants towards the far wall. Upon leaving the property we spoke to the cleaners who advised that the midweek cleaners are not as thorough as the weekend cleaners, if they see that the beds have not been used the bedding may not have been changed and dust will collect. Good points : good supplies of kitchen and housing utensils, TV with apps is useful, shared garden was a lovely space, very well located. This however, has been the most expensive cottage I’ve paid for and most unclean property I’ve stayed at. Aware it he price could have been inflated due to Covid-19. If it wasn’t for my partner arriving on the Saturday and having a baby, dog and mother already at the cottage I would have requested that HOTL relocated us to a clean property. When talking to the cleaners on Saturday, I made them aware of the areas that may need more attention. It did seem that Covid has been long forgotten about in this case and the property still dirty from previous occupiers.

  Thank you for your comments. It is very disappointing to hear all the issues that you have had and we will be discussing them ourselves with Heart of the Lakes who undertake the cleaning on our behalf each week. Thank you for making us aware. Property Owner

• "The cottage was lovely and really clean."

  The only thing I'd criticise is there was no extra toilet roll and only a tiny amount of wood and kindling - barely enough for our first night. Both pretty basic things that aren't really a luxury. We also arrived at night, in the dark and couldn't see the Croft mansion, so it took us a while to locate the opening into the Courtyard. Maybe a photo or a map to show the exact location would be useful. The bus stop is a good marker, and if you're coming from Ambleside I'd say the entrance is BEFORE the signs for the turn off to Skelwith Fold etc. It's quite a busy/fast road, so it's hard to drive slowly or stop to have a look. Other than that we enjoyed our stay. Thanks

  So for what we paid for a family of 3 just over £800 for week I thought this would of been 5 star accomdation at that price. I have marked this as 4* think tad over priced and we have been visiting this location for 25 years +. Postives - location for us was perfect we only used the car once. The accomodation was right size, had everything need for self catering holiday. Included a bbq which was a bonus. Kitchen was well equipt having decent washer was a bonus. Lovely enclosed yard to sit in warm summer nights. The private garden was lovely across the road. We rang before we left and confirmed we needed oven gloves and teatowels, on arrival this house had everything. Even had arrival pack which had some washing up liquid, dishwater tablets etc. Negative which makes it 4* - the road next to the house was really busy, we learnt that ferry was closed at Windermere which increased traffic through Ambleside. The road noise started at 7 and was load til 9pm. This also made it hard to cross the road to the path which was on otherside to walk into town and access the garden. Cars flying past at 60 mph was scary. We had 2 parking bays, first few days people trying park outside our property and blocked entrance to house, this was a little annoying. Inside house, bathroom was very tired it had modern equipment but needed tlc. Overall lovely house in perfect location for walking holiday. With the further covid hike in prices for next year and the noise of the road we will be looking elsewhere for our Lakes escape.

  Overall, fantastic. Just what we needed. Three nights from Monday 12th April, straight after lockdown. On arrival, easy to get in. Lovely welcome pack (thank you very much the Lee’s family). Location was great. Good walks direct from the doorstep. Courtyard was good to relax in afterwards. Real sun trap! Easy to get into Ambleside by car or walk. All the instructions and information was easy to understand. And the log burner was great. Walk in shower great. Plenty of space. Being next to the main road could put some people off but we didn’t see it as an issue. Overall, I’d say excellent. Didn’t want to leave.
