Excellent location and facilities

The property was ideal for a lovely break in the Lakes. It was a five minute walk from all amenities pubs, shops and restaurants. The facilities in the cottage were to a high standard and it was lovely to return from a long walk to the under floor heating.

Great property. Central location. Perfect.

Just finished a fantastic week away in Ambleside. The property is in a great location. Short walk in to town, as well as only being a 15 minute walk to the ferry. Very modern inside with everything you need. Exactly what my wife, 2 year old son and I were looking for. Having a parking space in such a prime location is a major plus, however be warned the space is quite tight if you have a particularly large vehicle. We have a Nissan Qashqai which just fit. Would definitely stay here again in the future and would have no hesitation at all in recommending this lovely property to anyone.

Ambleside without sunshine

Excellent house but because of main road location parking is very difficult in a small space for two cars. No garden area. Not over stacked with dishes( eg. only 3 cereal dishes) which means dishwasher has to be made more often.

Fabulous cottage in a great location!

We’ve just returned from a short break in Ambleside and couldn’t have wished for a better accommodation. Ideal for a family of four, high quality furniture, very well presented and very clean. Ideal location for both walks and amenities, at about 1 or 2 minutes walk to the centre of Ambleside. All in all, very highly recommended.

Ambleside in August

A very pleasant stay at the property, booking process and communication before arrival was very good. The property is situated very close to Ambleside, giving you the option to walk into the town to shop, eat or get information, but also a great central location to visit many places in the Lake District. The cleanliness of the property was great, beds comfortable and a nice layout of the main area. The only downsides are that there isn’t any outside areas (garden/bbq area), car parking is a little tight and the shower/wet room can get a little slippery. Overall a very nice stay and somewhere I would definitely try to use again in the future

Gold fish bowl

The only windows are street facing on a busy road with lots of hikers and every passerby wants to have a peep. The shower is a wet room and that means you have to mop or dry the entire floor when you shower. The hand shower is useless. The bin was overflowing. No ventilation in the second room and the beds bolts were loose. We left early

Amazingly renovated property with everything you could need for a relaxing stay.

Property is ideally situated in the centre of Ambleside. Walk out of the front door into a quaint little village and walk straight up into the hills or around multiple Lakes

Number1, The Coach House, Lake Road, Ambleside

The Coach House is a delightful, warm and welcoming cottage. My family loved our stay in your lovely home. The older member of the family appreciated the proximity to the shops and restaurants and was able to stroll down to the lake. The younger generation enjoyed the lovely walks. Thank you very much for the wine, chocolates and provisions in the fridge, they were much appreciated. We would recommend the newly opened Italian restaurant, Misto, in Ambleside. Thank you again for the use of your lovely cottage. The Baum family

Well presented, well appointed and perfectly situated cottage a stones throw from the centre

Just enjoyed 4 nights here and will definitely be back. The cottage has been beautifully renovated to a really high standard. My only criticism really would be the road noise from the main bedroom - I think heavy curtains would help a great deal, instead of the current voiles, and would block out the light that comes in at the edges of the blind. Otherwise, this is a fantastic place to stay, with everything Ambleside has to offer just a short stroll away.

Cracken little cottage

We spent 3 nights and were more than happy with the cottage. The layout was very good with lots of nice touches like the under floor heating and night light in the bathroom. The kitchen was of a decent standard and well stocked.
