    “Unfortunately due to personal matters and a severe storm, we were unable to travel to the accommodation.”

    I contracted Sykes Cottages and spoke to Jess, who was extremely sympathetic and understanding. Jess made contact with the owner of the property to ascertain if we could move our booking to a later date. The owner agreed to this, the booking was put on hold and I was updated by Sykes Cottages to that effect. Extremely emphatic and professional approach all round. Thank you.

About the location

AMBLESIDE

Grasmere 4.4 miles; Windermere 4.7 miles; Keswick 16.7 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.
