“A few points to note: 1.”

The portable heater in the on suite bedroom , control panel end loose. 2. Windows in the on suite bedroom hard to close, handle loose, same as kitchen window. 3. A second wheelie bin would be an advantage, when we got there the bin was already full, either previous holiday makers didn’t put it out or they filled it prior to leaving. 4. On suite bedroom door latch will not hold door closed. Overall very pleased with the property, been a few times and the kitchen refurb is first class.

“This is our second visit to Garden House.”

Yet again we had a lovely holiday with our extended family. Plenty of room for two families. Everything we could possibly need for our stay. Good well equipped kitchen. Beautiful evenings spent sat on the balcony with a glass of wine enjoying the views. Looking forward to returning next year

“The lower level twin room we did not use as it smelt and felt damp.”

My sons have asthma so could not use it.

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.
