"Spacious, comfortable with good range of utensils."
Missed having a full length mirror in the main bedroom but very impressed with the amount of storage, we’ve never had so many drawers! The location was perfect for us being within walking distance of the centre of Ambleside and we liked the uphill walk on the way back. It was also nice to have a garden to sit in with a drink before dinner.

"The property was beautiful, finished to a very high standard."
We wanted to take the kitchen home but we couldn't get it in the car, lol. We really enjoyed our week's stay and we wouldn't think twice to stay again.

"Very quiet, peaceful location."
The sound of the water was lovely. Great location for walks from the door but also great just to relax.
As somebody else said, take your own hand wash. That was the only thing missing.
The kitchen is so well stocked with every utensil you can think of. Very modern kitchen.
Nice comfortable beds.
This was one of the best places that we have stayed at.

The kitchen was well stocked with everything we could need. A special mention for the beds - the mattresses and pillows were so comfortable. We had a lovely week and would definitely go back.

"We found Mardale to be an excellent holiday base for our party of four adults and two children."
On arrival the property was warm, spotlessly clean and we soon found the kitchen to be very well equipped. The rest of the property was nicely decorated and furnished and the rooms were spacious. Having two bathrooms was really useful as was a utility room with laundry facilities. Ample parking and a short stroll from the centre of Ambleside were further plus points. We would happily return.

"We really enjoyed our stay at Mardale."
The cottage was very well kitted out both with the quality of products and in the kitchen the quantities provided. Our son loved playing with the games & we used the walking books to do some lovely walks including one from the house around Stock Ghyll.
Thank you for your feedback. We are pleased to hear that you enjoyed your stay.
We hope to welcome you back.

"An enjoyable stay in a very well equipped and tastefully furnished ground floor apartment."
Conveniently placed a short 5 min walk from Ambleside centre, via a pretty and quiet lane ( steep but nice).
Easy parking and access to a small garden area.
Bedrooms very comfortable, but 2 are overlooked by access drive to an adjoining property, so would really benefit from daylight blinds of some sort for daytime privacy.
Thank you for your kind comments, we are so pleased to hear that you enjoyed your stay.
We hope to welcome you back.

"The property was very comfortable and warm despite the extremely cold weather."
We met the owners in the adjacent property and it was clear that they had invested a considerable effort in ensuring that Mardale had a very high specification. The only minor quibble is that the showers worked best if only one was used at a time and no other appliances were drawing water. The property was cleaned to a good standard but only a basic issue of loo paper was provided and no soap dispensers were provided in the bathrooms. It also took us a while to find the "hidden" drawer with the bulk of the place settings. Otherwise we had a very enjoyable stay and the property was ideally situated for excursions to The Golden Rule!
Thank you for your feedback. Your comments have been noted.

"We really enjoyed our stay at Mardale, the property is extremely well kempt, and had all that we needed."
The location is great, just a very short walk into Ambleside, which was ideal. It's a perfect place to relax after a days activities, we had our 16month old twins, and our dog with us, and we all had a great time, many thanks!
Thank you for your kind feedback. We are glad to hear that you enjoyed your stay. We hope to welcome you back again.

"We had a lovely stay in this property."
It was ideally located near to the town, with plenty of space for us to relax, nicely decorated with all the mod cons that you would want, as well as comfortable beds. Great off road parking, and an enclosed garden. The water pressure was such that only one person call shower at time (there are 2 showers on the property). We enjoyed the stay so much we have booked again next year

"Company not the same now not a family city-owned by Sykes now."
The property was v good.
However the hot water cold and there was no instructions to change it and no easy overidge.
The heating was difficult but a bit easier to change.
There should be easy instructions to do this.
There is damp in the dining area.
Also with no sound proofing the property above make it noisy at times.
It's in a great location and overall a nice property.

"We've been visiting Mardale several times a year for over 20 years and look at it as a home from home with many happy family reunions."
We had a couple of equipment issues, but HOTL were very quick to respond although one issue couldn’t be remedied during our stay as it required a part to be ordered. Unfortunately however it’s just getting so expensive now and we are uncomfortable with Sykes’s policy of dynamic pricing where the amount you pay varies up or down according to demand, so this may affect whether we’ll be returning. However, a big thank you to the owners Paul and Cathy, who have always been welcoming and friendly and have provided a superb base for our family holidays in the Lakes.
