Cottage

A wooden deck with a metal railing overlooking a river, surrounded by lush greenery.

Riverbank

Ambleside

"It was a great location. We did find the car park a little bit tight and tricky to get into (as the road was fairly busy when we arrived). The cottage was great and had all we were after and the downstairs bathroom was great for my elderly Mum. The two single beds mattresses were a bit past their best so the only thing I’d suggest to improve the property would be an update of those. Otherwise it was a great place to stay right on the river."

Cottage

A living room with a sofa, a coffee table, a bookshelf, and a television.

Ramblers Rest

Ambleside

"Amazing views from the place and a very cosy little apartment for two maybe a little bit less clutter and wires around the house would’ve been nicer. There is no need for so many gadgets like sky box BT players CD players music hi-fi."

Cottage

A garden with a stone pathway leading to a wooden pergola with chairs.

Yew Tree Cottage

Elton's Escape

Windermere

"Our stay at Elton’s Escape was lovely. The caravan is nicely decorated with a cosy, welcoming vibe, and its location made it perfect for visiting Ambleside and Windermere. The living/dining area was fresh and welcoming, unlike many dog-friendly caravans which often carry an odour. Wi-Fi was excellent too. When we arrived, the caravan hadn’t yet been cleaned after the previous guests, but once we called the helpline, the on-call cleaning team responded promptly and resolved the issue. One thing...

Cottage

Yanway Cottage

Windermere

"Great little cottage in peaceful location. Nearly all perfect and value for money, the only downside is the mattress was terrible, felt like lumpy concrete and impossible for a good nights sleep"
