Comfortable and clean accommodation with every thing you could possibly need.
Comfortable and clean accommodation with every thing you could possibly need. Very spacious for two people and with a lovely covered verandah for the summer months. David the host was very friendly and helpful. The bed was extremely comfortable as was the sofa. Smart TV i the living room and a smaller tv in the bedroom.Close enough to walk into Ambleside and its bars, pubs and restaurants in 5 minutes. Perfect accomodation

Positioned 10 minutes walk from Ambleside town centre in a quiet area with views of the fells.
Positioned 10 minutes walk from Ambleside town centre in a quiet area with views of the fells. Parking on site and a good bus service in Ambleside so the car is not needed to get about, Short steep incline from Ambleside to the accommodation but quite doable.Accommodation compact, ideal for a couple with quality fittings and everything you need. Patio to sit out on when the sun shines with garden furniture. Owner lives above the apartment and is very friendly and helpful without being intrusive.Would reccomend
