Perfect. Highly recommend .

Herdwick Cottage was, again, a clean and lovely house to stay in whilst visiting the Lake District. This was our third stay. Our family appreciated the games room, all the extras coffees, shampoo and hand soaps and the location is amazing to try new and old hikes. Despite being so close to the town the street is quiet and peaceful at night time. We would highly recommend Herdwick Cottage.
Samuel
Very comfortable, clean and well equipped. We had no trouble finding parking in the street near the property. Ideal location less than 2 mins easy walk from the main shopping streets. Highly recommend would definitely stay again.
Excellent week away. Great location, and the cottage was lovely. It had everything that we needed. Parking pass for outside was also great. Nothing to fault about the cottage, the owners have done an excellent job and thought of anything.
We loved our stay in Herdwick cottage. This is our 5th holiday in the Lakes using Lakelovers, and our favourite cottage to date. Beautifully presented, extremely clean and in a great spot for local amenities. Thanks to the hosts for all the food & leisure recommendations listed. We will be back!
We had a brilliant week at Herdwick Cottage, culminating with watching the Aurora in Rothay Park on Friday evening! The cottage was ultra clean, homely and extremely well equipped. We loved its quiet location, yet an easy stroll into Ambleside centre. There are also plenty of interesting walks from the house.
Everything you needed and more perfect
What a little gem Herdwick Cottage is! It was spotlessly clean, cozy, comfortable and very well equipped. Its in a perfect location in a quiet part of Ambleside with shops, pubs, cinema and restaurants right on the doorstep and easy access to lots of lovely walks. We had a wonderful stay and will definitely be back when we next visit the Lakes.
What a wonderful week at Herdwick Cottage. Notwithstanding the winter weather, the cottage was clean, well equipped and comfortable. We must praise and thank the owners for their kindness, when our car refused to start due to the bad weather, and they allowed us to remain in the cottage for several hours until the breakdown company arrived. We were so grateful, and will most definitely return. The cottage is so convenient, with a level walk into town only minutes. Any future visitors will not be diss appointed. Thank you so much for our stay. Keith&Margaret
This is a well presented and equipped cottage with everything needed for a comfortable stay. The location could not be more perfect for exploring Ambleside and it was always easy to find a parking spot either right outside or just around the corner. The owners have really thought of everything, including the board games and the games consoles which kept the children entertained after a day hiking or on wet days. We would definitely return to this property.

We previously stayed here last year and booked to return straight away as it was perfect for us, however this trip we were slightly disappointed because the internet connection was awful. With 2 of the 3 of having to do some work while we were here we ended up having to go to a local cafe as the internet kept dropping out. Also it meant that none of the TV additional channels worked.
Sheila
We arrived to a cleanly presented home to stay for the week. All the little extras in the kitchen and bathrooms were so appreciated. The beds are so comfy and the bedrooms were lovely and spacious. The cottage is so close to everything in the town but not noisy, perfect for local hikes and walks in the area. This was our third visit to Ambleside and our first visit staying in Herdwick Cottage. Weve enjoyed it so much we have booked our return visit in 2024!
Elaine
Beautiful cottage and supplied with loads of little extras. It was convenient for the town centre and walking distance to some great restaurants. Due to the weather we were outside all week. We were overwhelmed by the generosity of the items left at our disposal. Weve always had to bring shampoos, cleaning products, cloths, ttowels and so many other things that it was a real home from home. Parking was easy with the permit and one car was left in the nearby car park for the week 38. We were happy to use the local bus service, if we werent walking. Great place, easy to book and would definitely be back. Thats a first as well. We just didnt have enough time to see everything! Thanks for having us.
A lovely clean and well presented cottage. Really well Cared for and well thought out by the owners with nice little touches. Everything we needed was there and more. This is a great location for the town, restaurants and amenities of Ambleside. We loved being so close. The parking options were good and we always managed to park near the cottage. Great access to the amazing surrounding area for walks and attractions.
Stuart
A beautiful cottage with all the facilities you need located perfectly in the heart of Ambleside. The parking permit allowed us to leave our car parked up for the week as we explored the lakes on foot and bus. The bedrooms are well sized and perfect for a family of four as we were. The house was very clean, modernised with new bathrooms, decor and furniture. Faultless.
This cottage was fantastic. The photos of the property are great, but in person the cottage is better in every way. We had a wonderful time here with our family of four and look forward to returning again soon.
Adrian
We really enjoyed our stay in Herdwick Cottage. The location is excellent quiet but a stone's throw away from all the shops, restaurants and cafes in Ambleside. The cottage was very wellequipped and comfortable. We are looking forward to coming back some day, especially once the new bathrooms have been installed.
Our third visit to Herdwick cottage and not our last! Perfect location, superbly equipped, comfortable beds, nicely furnished. Cant criticise anything!!
The cottage was lovely with comfortable beds, a well equipped kitchen and in a fantastic location.
Really lovely and comfortable cottage to stay at, very well equipped kitchen, had everything you could possibly want and more, you have thought of everything, bedrooms were so pretty and beds so comfortable, had best sleep ever, all furnishings of very good quality, great base to stay for pubs restaurants and shops and for walking from if youre a walker,there was a couple of things that need a little attention, the shower head kept slipping out of the holder and falling to the floor in the bathroom with the bath in it and also the shower door when opening would swing back and into door frame, maybe a rubber door stop on door frame would help to cushion the glass, saying all that I would definitely recommend my family and friends to rent your cottage, I am already looking to see if I can come back later on in the year, for me it was a perfect place to stay.
The position of the cottage was great for shops, amenities, pubs, restaurants and walks from the door.
One of our best stays. A beautiful cottage in a perfect location and very well kitted out. Kitchen was the best kitchen I have been to. Very comfortable beds. Will definitely stay here again.
We had a great stay at herdwick cottage and would recommend this cottage to anyone. The owner has thought of everything needed , it was spotless and central for everything. The Clarkson Family
Great house in a great location. Best quality of kitchenware of any rental we have stayed in before. Major issue dealt with quickly by the cottage owners and Lakelovers. Would definitely stay again.
Stephen
Just a little bit concerned that the prices are starting to go up by quite a large percentage. We looked at the same cottage for next year and the price increase was eye watering.
The cottage is perfect, fully equipped and wonderful. We have visited the lakes many times but this is the best yet!
Beautifully appointed cottage. Very well equipped youve thought of everything. Excellent location.
Herdwick Cottage is in a great location, very clean and well appointed. It made a excellent base from which to explore.
