Excellent property yards from the centre of ambleside but tucked away enough to be in a quiet location. The house itself was spacious enough for us 5 and a dog. It felt like home from home which is always a big plus. Will recommend with 5* approval from us.

Excellent location with parking and walking distance to Ambleside.l Good comfortable beds and bathrooms. Lovely views from the balcony. Had a really good week despite the weather not being brilliant.

House was exactly as described. I rented the house for the patio and garden hoping for good weather . Unfortunately we got really bad weather but the views were still beautiful. The house was very comfortable and very relaxing . Garth was very helpful and I would definitely rent again .

Great location Great views Great house

This is our third trip to Lingmell and such a pleasure it is to stay in this perfectly located home. The stunning views comfortable feel and delightful features such as clean comfortable beds and delightful bathrooms. We will certainly be back again to Lingmell and are planning the trip as I write this.

We have recenlt come back from a wonderful stay at Lingmell. The property is in a super location overloooking Ambleside. Fab balcony for when the weather is dry but the patio doors also allow the views to be appreciated in all weathers. We have stayed here on numerous occasions and hope to continue to do so for years to come. The host is always contactable and always checks that everything is ok with our stay.

Brilliant view from the balcony. Parking for 3 cars. Lots of lovely walks, no need to get in the car.

Excellent host, brilliant property

We have just stayed here for the Christmas period and had a lovely time. Had a little trouble with water heater, trying to switch it on but have Garth a quick call and all sorted. The walk into the village is literally 5 mins and lots of great pubs to choose from all pet friendly. Didn't go on many walks as it's didn't stop raining fur the whole week but not a lot you can do about that. Lovely comfy beds and modern bathrooms. Kitchen well equipped and sky TV connected. This wi fi of you need to work remotely. Definitely recommend.

Ideal location, spacious and comfortable house, just right for family breaks in beautiful Lakeland

Location, Location, Location Fabulous views Close to town Well equipped Beautiful showers

House very well presented. Lovely balcony with superb views. Sitting room/Dining area worked for us although dining area was quite small. Master bedroom great. Bathrooms and showers superb. Twin bedroom very good. Double bedroom downstairs a bit small and dark, with no access to garden. Everything provided but instructions for microwave would have been useful. Really enjoyed our fortnight here. The only real difficulty, and it was major, was the shared very steep drive. Last 11 days I managed to park in Lower Gale. This avoided earlier problems with neighbours.

Fabulous holiday- location perfect for walks from the door and access to restaurants and all Ambleside has to offer. House is extremely comfortable and views from the balcony are picture perfect. Thanks Garth

House was comfortable and spacious. Useful that one bedroom is on same floor as living area so only one step up on way in. However, it is a short but steep walk down to town so if you are mobility impaired like my elderly parents the house is good but you need a car to go anywhere. Overall would recommend and Ambleside is lovely.

Large comfortable house with great views in quiet area. It is up a steep hill so be prepared. Only criticism - parking is tight.

We have just returned from our stay in this cottage (April 2022), and what a fantastic place it is! The views from the balcony are amazing, and the cottage itself is equipped with everything you could possibly need. The things we need most from a Lakeland cottage are a decent shower and a comfy bed (after a days walking), and boy-oh-boy, this cottage does not disappoint! The beds and linen were great, and the shower is probably the best one I have had in any rental I have ever been in. Also very helpful for us was the fact that the cottage is carpeted - we have an elderly dog who struggles with laminate flooring, so he was able to stay upright on his paws the whole time. It was great being able to walk into Ambleside in the evening to get a bite to eat, but having said that, the cottage itself is in a quiet spot, so it sort of felt like the best of both worlds. The driveway is steep, be warned, but fine for a small/family sized car. We took a VW T5, so it was a bit more tricky, but there was plenty of roadside parking anyway. The only tiny thing I would suggest to the extremely helpful and friendly owner, is maybe a trim to the larger tree (Cherry tree?), is it is obscuring a good portion of the view from the lounge. The smaller Magnolia isn't a problem at the moment, but if left untrimmed, the view will then become greatly reduced, which would be a shame. If you are considering this cottage, I would say, don't hesitate, it will not disappoint! We will certainly be back.

Fabulous location. We'll equipped kitchen. Newly refurbished bathrooms. We had a very enjoyable stay and would book again and would recommend to family and friends.

Perfectly placed in Ambleside, close to the centre but quiet. Great view from the balcony and upstairs space. The bathrooms are amazing, genuinely the best shower I can remember! Beds comfy but the sofas a little tired. The kitchen is a bit basic but usable.

Details and communications provided before our holiday were accurate and very helpful. Excellent location, only short walk to Ambleside town centre that catered for all our needs. Incredible views from the balcony, living room and master bedroom. The house was lovely, very well equipped with excellent Wi-Fi and the large smart TV/Sky was a bonus. Would definitely book again, we highly recommend it!!

If you love the Lakes or if you are wanting to come and see the area for the first time, this is the perfect spot to stay. Great house, everything you need, and the town of Ambleside and its surrounding fells and mountains right on your doorstep. Grassmere, Hawkshead, Windermere. All in easy reach. Boats for hire, launch trips, easy walking, more adventurous hiking. Everything for a wonderful family break. Brilliant.

Our third stay at this lovely house. Sat looking over Ambleside it has plenty of room, is spacious and well equipped. Our weather this time was poor with lots of rain but the view from the balcony were great. The access is down a steep slope but there is a large garage to use and plenty of on street parking locally. There is a large TV with Sky and free fast sky internet provided. Would definitely recommend this accommodation and many thanks to Garth for being a great host and easily contacted. Will definitely be staying again in the future.

This is our 4th time renting this property and have already booked to go back twice this year. Communication with the owner Garth is always great and very helpful. The property for us is ideal and couldn’t be better situated in Ambleside - a 5 minutes walk to get to the shops, pubs and restaurants. The house is very well maintained with more than average space and has everything needed to make your stay extremely comfortable. One of the highlights are the balconies attached to the lounge, master bedroom and twin room. The only slight downside for those that struggle with mobility is the walk into Ambleside is a little steep. That said my mum is 82 and managed this so please don’t let it put you off! I couldn’t recommend this property more highly!

Wow Lingmell you did not disappoint, we had THE best Christmas break away, perfect location, perfect accommodation and perfect host who was quick to respond to any queries. Lingmell is a real gem that felt very homely and had everything you needed and more, we all slept well and enjoyed the priceless views over Ambleside. No matter the weather there was plenty to do and explore. We would have no hesitation in recommending Lingmell and would certainly love to return. Thanks Garth we really did enjoy our first family Christmas break.

Lovely house set above Ambleside with amazing views across to Loughrigg. Since our last visit a few years ago the bathrooms have been replaced and new carpets and TV added. The property was warm, well equipped and comfortable. Great location and very central for the shops, pubs and restaurants. Will definitely stay again.

Great position in Ambleside, easy access to shops and great restaurants. The early morning walking to local waterfalls with dog and then to pick up croissants and sausage rolls set off the day. Lingmell was ideal with 3 bedrooms, the bathrooms were great obviously recently upgraded. Views spectacular from the the upper balcony area. Great to sit out with a glass of wine or coffee! Did not want to leave .

We have stayed at Lingnell for over 15 years. Great location and perfect for exploring the lake district and the ambleside. Already booked again for next year.

Clean, excellently presented, modern and well positioned property in Ambleside. Centrally located with easy access to all mountains and lakes we wished to visit. Would definitely recommend/ visit again in the future.

Great location and wonderful view from balcony for your coffee and breakfast. We had two weeks and loved the property location being on top of the town with all restaurants and shops easily accessible - you will get fit coming back up to the property! Ambleside is a great base for exploring the Lakes and beyond - highly recommended.

This was a return to Lingmell for us, and a hugely eagerly awaited one. The house is clean very well maintained and is set in a stunning location atop Ambleside with glorious views. The patio is just perfect to watch the sun setting and enjoy a glass of whatever your tipple. Walking to town takes no more than a few minutes over three differing routes on foot or by car less than two minutes. As a family we cannot priase this home highly enough the owner is very easy going and great to deal with and it all adds up to a perfect holiday home, for a perfect holiday.

The check in process was very easy, inside the house was really clean and tidy. The large living room fitted us all comfortably and the bonus of the full width balcony with beautiful views was a real treat.The layout with bedrooms on both floors really suited our group and the bathrooms were large and airy, a real pleasure to use.The location of the property couldn’t really be better, 2 or 5 minute stroll to town, depending on your choice of route and 15 to 20 minutes to Bowness and the lake front.Having the private parking and everything in walking distance meant you weren’t constantly searching for parking. In summary we loved the house, had a great holiday, thought it was tremendous value for money and would certainly book it again. Many thanks Garth!

Very much enjoyed our stay at Lingmell. Well appointed house on two levels. Everything we needed, particularly enjoyed the view from the large balcony overlooking Ambleside and beyond, it's a 5-minute walk right into the town centre. Ample parking. Excellent WiFi, smart TV, great en suite bathroom.Highly recommended.
