Lovely apartment to spend Christmas in.
Lovely apartment to spend Christmas in. Close to the centre of Ambleside and I was able to go walking in the fells without using my car. A nice warm and cosy apartment that I will definitely revisit in the future.
Great central location for exploring The Lakes. Able to leave the car at home and get places on foot. Shops etc easy to hand. Most things you need in the kitchen. Outside space a little closer to the road than expected. Overall a great spot to stay in the Lake District. Many thanks
Lovely flat, well equipped, clean and in a great location

The apartment was a comfortable place to stay for a week. A compact place but just right for one or two people. It was great to have a dedicated parking space and be within easy walking distance of all the amenities of central Ambleside. The owners obviously care a lot about the property and have gone to significant lengths to make it welcoming and cosy.

Apsolutely lovely well equipped flat. Spotlessly clean, nice size and close to amenities.
If I wanted to be really picky nicer quality bedding would have been good. Sheet, duvet cover and pillowcases were of a low quality and very creased. However this is me searching for faults. We would return.

Loved this cosy apartment for two. Great location right in the middle of Ambleside. So easy to explore the wider area. Made use of the kitchen which had everything we needed. Parking space in front of the property just off the main road. Modern decor which felt like a home from home.

Stayed here from 1st June to 8th June 2019. Excellent accommodation. The only thing I would say is that the towel rail heating in the 'loo' should be kept on all the time to dry the towel after a shower. All other radiators turned off.
