Excellent location on one of the main routes through Ambleside, perfect for exploring all the Lakes. Super comfortable with two large sofas and three bathrooms, two en suite. The fee parking permits are so helpful and having the 1 hour parking right outside was wonderful. For your stay bring everything you need including the basics as nothing is supplied except salt and pepper, washing liquid and one night's firewood a basic welcome basic would be beneficial. Other than that, a super comfortable stay
Our 2nd visit to Hazel Cottage and, as per our 1st visit last year, it was very clean, comfortable and ideally situated in the centre of Ambleside. All agreed we would book again if and when we were to return to Ambleside. Would definitely recommend it to others.

Had a lovely, comfortable stay at Hazel Cottage. The striking observation for me was the cleanliness of the property! Everything worked apart from the toilet on the top floor being broken which was repaired as soon as I had reported it cant fault the service from the letting agent! The decor was fresh and the beds were so comfortable and the fact they are all super king sized and can be separated to configure the room to a twin bedded room is excellent! The only niggle I have is the parking outside, is free from 6pm 10am but after then you only get an hour. You can park at designated car parks within Ambleside with the free pass that you have available at the property. The window in the first floor ensuite bedroom does not open due to being triple glazed & is covered with a frosted film which I understand as the property is on the main road & gives you privacy, these are just minor things & would not stop me from staying at the property again as we had a wonderful stay!
Fantastic holiday property right in the heart of Ambleside. The property was just as shown in the photos, very comfortable and clean. We particularly like that two of the rooms were ensuite, plus a separate family bathroom meaning no waiting for a shower. Having a bicycle store was also a much needed feature for us.

Overall we all had a wonderful stay in Hazel Cottage but there where some issues around the heating downstairs, the room wasn't particularly warm but the upstairs was so the heating was an issue, also the showers didn't work at the same time when one was having a shower in the middle ensuite the top shower did not work, this shouldn't be the case as the property was for 6 people. We are only bringing this to your attention for others who rent the property.
We love this cottage. Its our 4th time staying at Hazel Cottage. On our first night we locked our selves out and within 20 minutes someone was there to let us in, highly appreciated! The internet was pretty inconsistent throughout the week, might be worth checking in case youre not aware

Spent 3 nights at this lovely house to celebrate my 70th birthday with 3 of my close girl friends. The house was lovely and perfect for us, getting out walking from the door and eating out at night. Three bedrooms worked perfectly, as I requested upon booking that one room was made up to be twin beds. All rooms have twins but are usually left as doubles. I feared my request would not be followed through, so I repeatedly contacted Sykes to make sure this would be done. We arrived to find that yes, there were 3 double beds. It was late in the day. We were tired after stopping off en route for a lovely walk near Ullswater and couldn't get through to anyone, so we scrabbled around in the cupboards to find extra bedding. Not a great start to our trip.
