Some guests noted the garden could be better maintained and the heating system was occasionally challenging to adjust.

Cleanliness

The property is generally described as clean and well-maintained, though a few guests noted areas where cleaning could be more thorough, such as behind sofa cushions and the vacuum cleaner being full. The presence of dog waste in the garden was mentioned, suggesting occasional oversight in outdoor maintenance.

Comfort

Overall, guests find the property comfortable, with special mentions of the quality of the beds and the underfloor heating. However, some guests found the sofas low and uncomfortable, and there were comments about the master bedroom being too hot, which slightly affected the comfort score.

Facilities

Facilities such as the kitchen equipment, pool table, and dog-friendly features are well-received. Criticisms include the complexity of the heating controls, the need for more wine glasses, and the state of the garden. The presence of a games room and practical amenities like boot dryers are appreciated.

Thoughtfulness

Guests mention thoughtful touches like a picnic bag, flask, and a Bose speaker, enhancing their stay. A Fortnum & Mason hamper was a delightful surprise for one guest during the festive season. However, it's important to note that such gifts are thoughtful gestures and may not be a standard offering for all stays.

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.
