Cobblestone Cottage Reviews

The property was very clean and well equipped. Good location.

Michelle

A lovely little cottage nestled in the heart of Ambleside. Yes its small but it was immaculate and had everything we needed. There was a lovely little area in front of the cottage with a table and chairs where we enjoyed a morning cuppa and evening glass of wine. The bed was so comfy with lovely views to the fells and the shower was fab! Neat and compact but a beautiful little place to stay we will definitely be back

The property was very clean and well equipped. Good location.

We had a great time at the cottage local for shops and restaurants. Parking was fine we asked a traffic warden where to park and he said now you can park in the short stay car park where the Wednesday market is the rules have changed this year so it was only about 50 yards away from the cottage. It was easy to get to every lake we had wonderful time.

The property was very clean and well equipped. Good location.

A lovely cosy and warm cottage right in the centre of Ambleside. Thank you. The bed would benefit from a new duvet that fitted the cover and wasnt lumpy and stained!

Jacqui

A lovely tiny cottage right in the centre of Ambleside. It is tucked away from the noise of the town, and the outside seating area was lovely. The downstairs living, kitchen, and dining area was well equipped and comfortable. Upstairs, the bedroom was lovely and comfortable, and the shower room was perfectly fine. There is very little to fault here. However, I would have liked a smaller frying pan, just to do a few mushrooms. The wall lights in the living area didnt work properly and gave out very little light. There is a warning about the stairs and the tight access in the bedroom. If you regularly get up during the night for the loo, I advise you sleep near the window. My partner slept on the other side and had difficulty getting around the end of the bed without nearly tripping over the duvet and falling down the stairs during the night. With regard to unloading and parking, be aware that it is a very narrow road with no space to stop and unload without causing a blockage. Roadside spaces are sparse and also require vouchers. The parking voucher has to be collected from the cottage first otherwise, you have to pay for parking unnecessarily. The voucher is valid in the Rydal Road and Lake Road car parks, not the large one at Miller Bridge. On the whole, I really liked this cottage and would consider it again if we return to Ambleside.

The property was very clean and well equipped. Good location.

This is our second stay at Cobblestone Cottage. It's a really handy place to stay in Ambleside and perfect for us as a couple. We really appreciated the Christmas decorations this time too! The only downsides were cleanliness we had to hoover as it was really dusty behind the bed and we have dust allergies and we would have liked a bigger duvet. Apart from those niggles we had a lovely stay and will be coming back next year!
