A really lovely apartment, comfortable, well furnished and in a great position away from the busyness of the main streets. We return to this apartment regularly as it is so good.

Waterfall was really comfortable and roomy. The facilities were firstclass and the location ideal.
Loved the location, close enough to Ambleside to enjoy all the town has to offer. Could hear a Stock Gyll which was lovely as well as see it from the little garden.
