“Cleaning not so good oven pans, carpet and fridge.”

Tv too small and no cinema on sky. Sofa is not comfy Other than that it was absolutely fine.

“We've stayed twice before but I would no longer recommend the property.”

The owner insisting that the Aga oven stays on at optimum level (this issue isn't mentioned in the property description) is absolutely ridiculous. Arriving on a warm day, the oven was belting out so much heat that it must have been over 30 deg C in the kitchen. The only way to manage it was to open every window in the property and use the large fan continuously in the lounge. I note that the visitors book has been removed from the property (as mentioned by previous holidaymakers) but the numerous requests in the property mentioning not to try and adjust the Aga shows that others have experienced the same. Goodness knows how the cleaners manage. It's very sad as the owners have clearly put a lot of effort into making it a nice property - but their love of an economic fuel bill overrides their concern for guests

About the location

AMBLESIDE

Windermere 4 miles; Grasmere 4 mile; Keswick 15 miles.

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. Along with the Lake and the great walking on offer, Ambleside is also famous for its annual rushbearing ceremony and the diminutive 17th century “Bridge House” - one of the most photographed buildings in the Lake District and now the National Trust Information Centre.

Note: Access to the property is up a number of steps, may unfortunately not be suitable for those with limited mobility
