Guests say
1 Field Foot Cottage in Ambleside is a well-equipped, cosy property with period decor, offering stunning views and a central location ideal for local amenities and walks. Guests appreciate the cottage's charm, comfortable beds, and the inclusion of a garage, though some find the parking tight for larger vehicles. The property is dog-friendly and generally meets the needs of visitors, despite some concerns over heating and cleanliness.
Cleanliness
The cottage received mixed feedback on cleanliness. Some guests found it not as clean as expected, while others did not raise any concerns. The presence of cigarette smell in the laundry was noted, affecting the overall impression.
Location
The location is highly praised for being central, quiet, and convenient, with easy access to local shops, restaurants, and scenic walks. The proximity to amenities and the village's charm contribute to a positive experience.
Comfort
Guests find the beds large and comfortable, and the living spaces cosy, especially with the fire lit. However, some guests mentioned the property being cold upon arrival and the steep staircase to the attic as minor discomforts.
Facilities
The cottage is well-stocked with kitchen appliances and utensils, and guests appreciate the smart TV with Netflix. However, the lack of a dryer, the need for a deep clean of the oven, and the absence of an information booklet slightly detract from the overall facilities rating.

About this property
A charming, traditional cottage located a short walk from the centre of Grasmere, providing guests with a comfortable and welcoming stay all-year-round. A real home away from home, this retreat is perfect for travellers or couples to spend some leisure time in an excellent part of Cumbria. The ground floor is complete with a lovely lounge, which boasts an original open fireplace for those cosy nights in, and plenty of seating for you and your loved ones to socialise and relax in comfort. The kitchen/diner has been refurbished to a lovely standard with stylish units and counter tops, as well as a pleasant dining table with seating for up to six people. Stairs lead up to a family bathroom, which houses a bath with a shower attachment, elevated by light blue décor to give the suite an almost ocean feel. There are two bedrooms to the first floor; a kingsize bedroom and a single bedroom are laced with a neutral theme, and have delightful bedside tables and wardrobes to store your belongings. To the third floor is a kingsize bedroom with ensuite, with views on each side of the room across to Grasmere, there is also a day bed on this floor with pull out trundle for added flexibility. On a sunny day, make the most of the outside patio area, or better yet, wander into the village of Grasmere with its shops, pubs, and church which dates back to the 13th century, as well as Grasmere Lake, with a breathtaking view of the surrounding mountains which can be seen from the top floor of the property. Just five miles away is the town of Ambleside and Lake Winderemere where you will find shops, pubs, restaurants and the 17th century Bridge House, which is one of the most photographed buildings in the Lake District. A wonderful retreat in an excellent location for touring.
