“What a wonderful place!”

I actually gasped when we opened the front door and saw the view - it was even better than I had hoped for. The flat was ideal in every way - it had everything we needed (except a tea tray) and because the weather was so good we had difficulty tearing ourselves away from the balcony, but when we did, it was an ideal location for walking, catching boats and driving to other parts of the Lake District. We would definitely like to return and friends who’ve seen our photos are interested in ...

We would definitely like to return and friends who’ve seen our photos are interested in staying too. We’d recommend it to anyone - provided they don’t want to stay when we do!

“A comfortable apartment with fantastic views.”

Check in information very detailed with further details in apartment about facilities. Parking space was a little tight as mentioned in property details. Beautiful views of the lake and a balcony to enjoy on warmer days. The bed was comfortable and sound proofing pretty good in the block, we slept well. Appreciated the request for quiet closing of heavy doors as we like a quiet place to stay. We found the apartment spacious and comfortable for two of us with all the facilities we needed. After a days walking the lift was appreciated to the 2nd floor. Well placed for walking into Ambleside for shopping, a meal out or exploring. Also an ideal base for going further in the Lake District. We kayaked on Windermere and also took a boat trip to Bowness. Other recent feedback mentioned the high price of the apartment. For a penthouse apartment with a beautiful lake view, balcony and parking we thought it was reasonable. The couple staying in the next apartment were repeat visitors to the block, having stayed in all the rental apartments.

“Excellent apartment in great location.”

20 min walk into Ambleside. Everything you need for your holiday. Fish and chip shop across the road, restaurants/ cafes nearby. Great base for lovely walks

“Lovely apartment with amazing views we visit every year :) ...”

Lovely apartment with amazing views we visit every year :) shame this will probably be the last time as prices appear to have doubled for next year :(

“We found Lakeland View to be an excellent apartment that was clean, comfortable, well equipped, surprisingly spacious and had superb views.”

We had a great week here and enjoying the balcony was a highlight. It is not accurate to describe the apartment as ‘luxury’ and the massive twenty five percent price increase for the same week next year cannot be justified and means that we will not return.

“Would not hesitate to go back and fully intended to re book, however having looked at the phenomenal increases for the 2022 season this is now not an option.”

We don’t consider the percentage increase is justified and it confirms what was written in the press that holiday letting agents are taking full advantage of the COVID crisis and bumping up prices..

“The appointment was described as clean & modern, this was far from correct.”

Bathroom very dated with a shower valve that comes away from the wall when turning on & sealants in need of repair. Broken down glass unit in balcony window which steams up to obscure the great view. Old sofa that provides little support(very uncomfortable). Bedroom carpet that needs good clean or replacement. Spiders on the ceiling & cobwebs in abundance. Communal hallway & stairwells smelt damp & musty. Left 2days early.

“Very clean and covid safe environment.”

A special appartment with spectacular views. Well equipped for self-catering. This is important at the moment because the immediate area offers little in the way of hospitality for non-residents.

The property

Our properties in Romney Grange are justifiably popular and we are sure Lakeland View will be the venue for many happy visits for our clients. This rather special top floor apartment for two overlooks Lake Windermere at Waterhead with its ever-changing scene of boats at their moorings and the comings and goings on the steamer pier against a panoramic backdrop of fells and distant mountain tops. If you can tear yourself away from the view you will be delighted with the choice of restaurants, pubs, cafes and shops all within walking distance. Lake cruises begin across the road and there are numerous walks to be done from the door. Accommodation: Security entry system and access to the top floor by stairs or lift. Entrance hall leading through to the stylish open plan sitting/dining room and kitchen (32 inch HD TV with Freeview , DVD, free Wi-Fi broadband, digital radio/cd player and ipod dock). Full height patio window opens out onto a balcony overlooking the lake. There is one king size bedroom - again with beautiful views - and a well-appointed bathroom (shower over bath, basin and wc). The whole property has a light and stylish holiday feel. Much of the flooring is in oak with fitted carpet to the hall and bedroom. Electric off peak and panel heating keeps the well-insulated interior cosy year-round. Outside: Balcony with fine lake views. Shared gardens. Parking for one medium sized car in named space. Lake 50 yards, village centre half a mile.

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.
