Very charming little flat with everything we needed for a short stay at the Lakes. The beds were very comfy, everything was clean and tidy, and we loved the little reading nook filled with all kinds of literature and board games as well as the sitting/dining area.
Had a little bit of trouble finding the right door at first but that might've been because we arrived late in the evening and it was already dark outside. The incredibly friendly neighbours were there to help!!

Very clean, peaceful place with stunning views. Homely for short break. Off road parking.
Lots of information about Lakes available
The shower system - pressure very low. Luckily we found the boost button in cupboard to heat it up but could not adequately wash your nether regions
1 toilet roll for 4 days a bit mean as this is not cheap accommodation - no hand soap in toilet.
A quaint holiday home which could be exceptional if above taken on board

Lovely little upper floor apartment. Exceptionally well equipped kitchen. Very comfortable bed. Amazing book shelves full of a wide range of books. Excellent position for Ambleside - 10 minute walk. Would recommend.
There was no one in the property underneath us until our last day and we were amazed at how much we could hear from them. Very glad it wasn’t all week!!!

Loved the location!
The freezing cold water constantly gushing out of the actual shower unit, making the shower a very unpleasant experience, did try to call both the host and the number in the book but no answer.

Great location for Ambleside. Had all you needed.
In the twin room there was a lot of long hair on items. Either had not been cleaned or cleaner had long loose hair.
Not all bins had been emptied.

Nice location, close to the town centre.
Shower pressure was low, limited hot water. No tea, coffee, sugar or milk on arrival. TV too small. Apartment smelt old and stale. Entrance is a bit dirty. Hosts were waiting for us to check out at 10am. Even though checkout is at 10am, owners should only come around 11am.

The location was perfect, just a short drive to Ambleside centre where there were plenty of pubs, shops etc.
The front door was a real issue, we reported this but no one got back to us, the door was sticking and only my husband could pull it open, this could have been a problem if we had an emergency,

The apartment was pleasant enough. The kitchen was well equipped but impersonal - eg it would have been nice if there had been any basic provisions such as condiments or tea bags or coffee, oil - or maybe a bit of milk. Anything really to make it feel a bit welcoming.
We waited until the advised check in time of 4pm, which I think is unreasonably late, only to find the apartment had not been serviced so it was close to 7pm by the time this got sorted.
The hot water system in the shower was hopeless and the instructions left by the owners about optimal settings were just wrong and seemed designed to minimise electricity costs rather than provide a warm shower for the guest. Find the red button in the cupboard outside the bathroom and keep pressing it frequently if you want to make sure you have hot water when you need it - and turn the dials up as high as you like in the shower instead of the suggested setting !!!

The Hayloft was in the perfect location for us to explore Ambleside and Lake Windermere. It was a little small, however for us (a couple) it was more than ideal and we found it exceptionally clean and well maintained. We had excellent facilities and it was the perfect base for our first visit to the Lake District.
There are birds nesting above the bedroom window which woke us up on our first morning - after a couple of long walks we were able to sleep through it though!

Great location and cosy accommodation. Off street parking and perfect for the mid lakes exploring we had planned. Short walk into Ambleside.
We struggled a bit with the heaters but thinking it may have been user error more than anything else.
8.0 / 10.0
We loved the location of the hayloft, it is a very short drive or walk to Ambleside and it is a great central location for all our travels to Lake District hikes.
The beds were comfortable to sleep on and we had access to all facilities you need for a short stay.
The property did not have basic short stay consumables, such as sugar, hand-wash soap or shampoo.
There was also only one roll of toilet paper supplied for 3 people over a 3 night stay.
