“Perfect cottage!”
Stunningly decorated, super clean and pristine inside. Really comfortable bed and a great shower! We had everything we needed for cooking and relaxing. The underfloor heating was a treat too, especially in the bathroom. Located right in the heart of the town so close to all amenities. Thank you for such a great stay, we’ll be back next year for sure!

“Perfect”
The cottage was beautiful and very well equipped. Centrally located but the area was very quiet. You cannot park on the street overnight, however, you do get a permit to park for an hour and we found a spot outside so we could unload the car. There is a carpark literally 2 minutes away so this wasn't issue. The owner was fantastic, very accommodating. We would definitely stay again.

“One of the best accommodations we had on our 2 month road trip”
Everything. Super location, a little tucked away so it was nice & quiet. Very well equipped, clean & comfortable. Thank you for the milk in the fridge. Host was super understanding when we unfortunately broke a plate. Street parking is 1hr to load & unload & the host provided a permit for a long term car park a few minutes walk away which was great.

“The best cottage we have ever stayed in!”
The property is fantastic! The finish and quality of the of every detail is superb! It was incredibly clean and modern but we felt very much at home during our stay. The location is amazing, right in the heart of Ambleside. Plenty of room for us, including our 5 month old daughter (plus her cot) and our dog. Nothing bad to say about the property at all. Would highly recommend!
