The room was big enough, clean and tidy. The staff was very friendly and helpful with any request we had. Absolutely recommended. The location is perfect because the bus stop to Windermere and the city centre was 2 mins away.

Great accommodation with easy parking and the view from the window of the city as designed for photographers. The facilities in the apartment were of a very good standard, the bottle of prosecco was a nice bonus. The town centre is a very short walk down steep steps (... and back up again : (), Tesco and restaurants are only about 150m away. Definitely worth the money.

Loved this charming, quirky hotel - the owners were very nice and I enjoyed Matt's witty banter. The outside of the house was just as beautiful as the view we had from our room. The room was very comfortable: large bed, nice bathroom with all the amenities we were hoping for. In addition, we enjoyed a delicious home cooked breakfast in the morning. The hotel is located in the center of Ambleside, and we started our hike from there - no need to take the car (which we could conveniently leave in the parking).

We recently stayed at this charming log house in the Lake District and had a memorable holiday. The room was excellent—cleaned daily, with a very comfortable bed, a TV, a mini fridge, and both a bath and shower. The wonderful mountain views from the room added to the overall pleasant experience. The location is convenient, being just an 8-minute walk from the town center, and the check-in and check-out processes were seamless with detailed instructions provided.

Nice cheap and cheerful stay in Ambleside. Was doing some hillwalking so just looking for somewhere to get my head down for the night. Great value for money only £80 for the night basic accommodation but clean and lovely old school pub. Great pint wished I’d have had a couple more. Only thing was the music was loud but it didn’t go on too late and I had a good night sleep. Location is great.

The flat was beautiful I loved staying here. Has everything you would ever need for self catering. Also some personal touches eg. Tampons. Right near Hawkshead where there is a COOP which was very handy. The hob and pans were brilliant. The sofa was very comfy a recliner also charging ports for your phones. The host has gone above and beyond and I am so grateful for that. Had a fantastic holiday and loved staying here.
