    Everything was thought about so thank you. My only feedback would be some of the cooking utensils were tired - there was a frying pan that should really be binned

  • Vivien

    Ambleside lodge was clean and comfortable a little tired in places but everything worked. Lovely location on a quiet site. We would stay again.

  • Joanne

    Everything worked and was very clean, had everything we needed and more. Very comfortable, a proper home from home. Loved the quiet position and the views. Our little dog loved the outside. The orange juice and milk was a lovely touch. We met the owner on the day we left, she was so nice and helpful. We cant wait to book again and have already recommended it to friends.
