  • "Because of our first stay; we came back!"

    And again, glad we did. This time we brought my stepdaughter with us, we had a great time, with good weather, a touch cloudy, but very warm every day, lovely. Much walking in the beautiful hillsides and around the lakes, we hardly noticed the week fly by, as it always seems to. So many thanks, P+K.

  • "We really enjoyed the spacious accommodation with excellent facilities."

    The apartment is immaculate with tasteful furnishings. The amazing view towards Windermere and the pier from the bay window is awesome making the window seat area very popular. It was lovely to have a 3 generational family holiday in such a beautiful apartment in a stunning location.We hope to return one day. Many thanks.

  • "It was a pain with the dishwasher not working and only having a small area to place what had been washed."

    It was a hard first half of the week not being able to shower. The first night was a horrible time with the water overflowing from the shower and into the hallway and sitting room. Two days later a man came and fixed it, but said that it would happen again because the pipe for draining the water was going upwards. The sink in the kitchen also got blocked and on the day we left it seemed to be close to being blocked again.

  • "The whole apartment needs a deep clean and the damp / condensation around the windows requires urgent attention."

    Extractor fan in the en-suite does not work causing the bathroom to be wet. The bases of the stools in the kitchen were filthy. The shower base to the en-suite needs resealing as it is dirty. A lovely spacious apartment with outstanding views but needs someone to have a close look at the issues raised.

    Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry to hear about all the issues you encountered at the property, unfortunately we weren't aware of any of the issues you had as we could have resolved them to make your stay more comfortable. We have raised these issues with our maintenance and housekeeping team to review. Lakelovers Owner Relations Property Owner

  • "Good views and position."

    The flat was clean, and the facilities and furnishings were good. The bed was too soft. The flat was noisy partially due to its position overlooking a busy road junction, added to by builders and garden maintenance. Providing just one set of keys for a three-bedroomed flat is simply absurd. This alone would mean we will not return.

    Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry to hear that you did not find the bed comfortable, we do find that this is down to personal preference. Regarding the noise, the property is in a busy area as shown in the photos on the website. We will take into account your comments about the quantity of keys for the property.

  • "Lovely property in a perfect location."

    We were able to abandon the car for the whole week and walk, used buses as the stop was conveniently outside the property. We also took the ferry to Bowness as again the pier was located right outside the property. Would highly recommend the property. The only negatives, which we did feedback to heart of the lakes was the fridge freezer was off when we arrived. We had arrived with chilled food and did have a grocery delivery which we had to manage. We also didn’t receive the welcome wine that was advertised.

    Thank you for your kind feedback. We are glad to hear that you enjoyed your stay. We take all feedback on board and will look into this. We hope to welcome you back. Property Owner

    Very comfortable, really good location and excellent views. The window seat became a favourite spot to sit and still enjoy the Lakes if the weather was bad. Lots of great walks on the doorstep so we didn’t have to drive out somewhere every day. The open top bus (with a stop outside) was excellent value and the Tearooms at Troutbeck was a fab find.

About the location

AMBLESIDE

Grasmere 4.4 miles; Windermere 4.7 miles; Keswick 16.7 miles.

Lying at the northern tip of Lake Windermere, England’s largest lake, Ambleside makes a superb base for touring the central Lakes, with Grasmere and the Langdale Valley just a short drive away. There is plenty to do here - cruises, boat trips and watersports on Lake Windermere itself and numerous shops, restaurants and pubs in the village to suit all tastes. On the lakeside at Waterhead, the parkland offers lovely views down the lake and a short stretch of beach, whilst a walk in the other direction, following Stock Ghyll through woodland, will bring you to the entrancing waterfall of Stock Ghyll Force. Along with the Lake and the great walking on offer, Ambleside is also famous for its annual rushbearing ceremony and the diminutive 17th century “Bridge House” - one of the most photographed buildings in the Lake District and now the National Trust Information Centre.
