The cottage was excellent but the stress leading up to the check in was horrendous. I booked this on 21st or 23rd dec and had been asking for check in details of the property all the way up to the date of checkin. I only received the checkin details at 10am on the day of checkin. The cottage was some 6-7 hours drive and my plan was to leave my home very early in the morning to get there before the 4pm entry time. Due to this stress my family were rather upset and we ended up losing a day of the holiday as we were hoping to spend the day in the Lake District before checking in. It also meant I spent nearly the whole day on Boxing Day trying to contact the host and Vrbo with no success. I still do not know why the checkin details were provided so late and feel very disappointed by this. On reflection I feel we lost a day of our holiday and also suffered a day of stress beforehand. I feel some compensation should be offered

Great little cottage, with all you need for a holiday walking or otherwise enjoying everything the Lake District has to offer.

This is a lovely stone cottage within walking distance of Ambleside. Lovely views from the dining area. Tastefully decorated with quality bedlinen and towels and additional touches for the Christmas period. The open fire was a huge bonus and the kitchen is extremely well equipped. The only minus point was that although parking is adjacent to the house, it was challenging with a pickup truck because of access. However, would thoroughly recommend and stay here again.

Cosy for 4 but much better than the photos! Any problems have been dealt with as we had no issues at all. Well equipped kitchen for actual cooking, cosy lounge with real fire and some means to light it on arrival. Roomy dining space with lovely views and loads of family games. 2 doubles and 2 singles ~ my only complaint (and it is a very common one) is the pillows. So common that we now try and bring our own. Nobody wants to sleep for a week on a poundland pillow. When will owners of these properties understand that sleep is a massive factor in enjoying a holiday!?
