“As others have said, Romney 22 is perfectly located.”

The apartment has everything you could want and more. The view from every window is a delight and the owners have tastefully decorated. The parking is a benefit and the space right outside the door. Lots of books /games/maps to help plan days on the fells or entertain on a wet day. A perfect home from home and holiday location. ...

The apartment has everything you could want and more. The view from every window is a delight and the owners have tastefully decorated. The parking is a benefit and the space right outside the door. Lots of books /games/maps to help plan days on the fells or entertain on a wet day. A perfect home from home and holiday location. The only thing that let's the apartment down is HOL cleaners. On the surface all looked OK. But used the main bathroom to dry a wet coat, only to find the sink / toilet not clean (toilet had not even been flushed) and when I dried the floor the cloth was filthy - I had not used the room until then (the en suite was cleaner - although i did wipe the shower round prior to use). There was no soap or sanitizer left anywhere in the apartment and covid has not vanished and i would expect liquid soap to be provided as standard. Given that check in is so late to allow for cleaning this is not the first HOL (or associated company) where the cleaning has been poor in the last 2 years. I would stay at Romney Grange again, but will look at private rental if HOL can not solve their cleaning issues.

“We thoroughly enjoyed stopping at 22 Romney Grange.”

The apartment was clean, comfortable and very well equipped. It literally had everything we needed. We didn't want to leave at the end of our holiday. Hope to be back next year. Thank you.

“The apartment was in a great location, it was handy to have the bus stop outside.”

It was quiet, with lovely views. It felt a bit cold at times, and the storage heaters did not seem to work despite checking instructions - I'm sure this could have been sorted if we had chosen to follow this up, but it wasn't too bad so we left it. The kitchen had all the utensils we needed, and we were pleased with the bathroom facilities. We would happily return.

“Romney 22 is a really attractive apartment with lovely views.”

It is very well equipped with everything you might need, has a comfortable bed and was spotlessly clean, apart from what looked like a spilt coffee stain on the rug in the living room. I cleaned this myself quite easily, with some Vanish carpet cleaner which I found in the kitchen. There is a designated parking space for one car and it is very close to all the amenities at the lakeside, including the pier for boat trips. There is a lovely balcony with a table and chairs, where we enjoyed the beautiful views of the lake, the communal gardens and the sheep! The apartment is within easy walking distance of Ambleside, which has loads of lovely restaurants and tea rooms etc. The apartment has very good info about local supermarkets and attractions,and there is also very good info about how to work all the appliances, window locks etc. There isn't a lift and it is on the 2nd floor, so getting our luggage up the stairs was a bit of a struggle for us over 60's and may be a problem for less mobile people. The service from Sykes Cottages was excellent, with good communication and instructions for every step of our stay. Key collection and drop off was very easy. We had a wonderful holiday and I would recommend this apartment and Sykes Cottages without hesitation. Thank you.

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.
