“Great cottage - very comfortable and clean.”

This didn't affect us but worth noting that anybody with any mobility issues will find it very difficult to access.

“A lovely house in a great position overlooking the town - the views more than compensated for the steep walk back!”

Excellent interior design and level of equipment made for a very comfortable stay. Dependent on your group size, it is worth being aware that the 3rd bedroom is small and the raised bed will limit its usefulness. We were sorry to leave and hope to be back

“Excellent accommodation in a super location.”

“We had a lovely stay, the new decorations are great and the cottage was very clean.”

We’ll be back next year! Thanks so much

“Perfect holiday, after a two year absence due to the pandemic.”

House ideally located within 5 mins walk of the heart of Ambleside, and contained everything we needed for a home from home holiday.

Elaine August 2021

“Excellent property in a great location.”

We were expecting 1 large drive for 2 cars however there are 2 drives that are really tight, suitable for reverse parking a family sized car and a small car

Rachel August 2021

“Absolutely loved Gale Mews.”

Perfect location, everything you could possibly need and super clean. The views were lovely from the cottage windows and everything has been done to a high specification. We highly recommend this property.

“We had a lovely holiday staying at Gale Mews.”

The property was clean, spacious, comfortable and it was great to have views across Loughrigg from every room. Dinner and drinks on the patio overlooking the mountain were a highlight.

Pauline July 2021

“Fantastic cottage in as great a condition as it was when we stayed last year.”

Will definitely book again. Our two small cars were fine but two large cars would struggle with the size of the parking spaces (as advertised in the description). Feel the service is definitely less personal since Sykes took over. Small, practical queries not handled in the same efficient way that HotLs used to.

“This was a last minute booking but what a find.”

Obviously a much loved cottage. It is beautifully decorated, the kitchen is modern with high quality equipment and had everything we needed. The whole house was in superb condition throughout and was warm and comfortable. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay

“We had a fantastic family holiday and made some wonderful memories; we would absolutely recommend this place to anyone wanting to go to the lakes.”

It was very central to ambleside and it fitted out to a very high standard, its very comfortable and family friendly. This break was just what we needed in this current pandemic. Thank you.

The property

A spacious and comfortable detached stone built house, c1875, in an elevated position and ideally located only a short walk up the hill from the village centre, Gale Mews will offer up to five guests a fine comfortable base for their Lakeland holiday at any time of the year. There are extensive views across the village rooftops to the fells beyond and a lovely landscaped garden with a large enclosed terrace with outdoor furniture where you can relax on sunny days. A second paved patio area at the bottom of the garden boasts a large wooden arbour for those early evening sundowners. Walks from the door will keep the most active members of your party happy whilst the village centre boasts a wide choice of local shops, pubs and restaurants for all your day to day needs. Ambleside has a five-screened cinema showing all the latest films, a climbing wall, a recreation ground with bowls, boule, crazy golf, putting and tennis, and there are lake cruises on Lake Windermere all year round. Accommodation:The entrance hall with boot-store and downstairs cloakroom with wc and basin leads via twin doors to an impressive fully fitted designer kitchen/breakfast room with views over the terrace and fells beyond from the bay windowed seating area. A wall-mounted flat screen TV with integrated DVD provides a second media centre. A door opens from the breakfast room into the spacious sitting room with a further bay window with views, a woodburner-effect gas fire and leather suite. A wall-mounted, flat-screen, internet linked TV with HDMI connected DVD player and the mini-hi-fi provide entertainment when required. Another door allows direct access to the terrace via a vestibule area. Stairs from the sitting room lead to the first floor landing and hence to three good bedrooms all with fell views – the master has a king-sized double bed, fitted wardrobes/cupboards and en-suite shower room with power shower, basin, wc and heated towel rail; in addition there is one twin and one single bedroom with its feature cabin style bed (higher than a standard single).

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.
