Well equipped. Only slight complaint is the extractor hood is at just the wrong height and location so I regularly knocked my head while cooking.

The accommodation was excellent - really well equipped, very clean and clearly well maintained and cared for. The ease of parking is also such a positive, we have stayed in many properties in the Ambleside area over the years and this definitely tops the pile for value. We have booked again for the summer!

Spotlessly clean and very comfortable. The instructions left on how things work were great. The towels smelt lovely. The kitchen was very well equipped. Parking right outside. There is everything to love about this property. We all agreed we would stay here again in a heartbeat. Ambleside is walkable in 5/10 minutes so long as you donât have mobility issues. Just take a torch if walking after dark (one was provided at the property). We are a family of 2 adults and 2 younger children and this house was absolutely perfect for us.
