Guests say
Cornerstones is a well-regarded holiday cottage in Ambleside, praised for its prime location and comfort. Guests appreciate the easy access to local amenities and the thoughtful inclusion of parking permits. The property is described as a perfect holiday spot with comfortable rooms and a high standard of renovation.
The cleanliness of the property has been brought into question due to reports of chipped crockery, a stained bedroom carpet, and a lack of basic supplies, suggesting room for improvement in this area.
The location is highly praised for being central with easy access to supermarkets, restaurants, buses, and local amenities, making it an ideal base for exploring Ambleside.
Guests find the property very comfortable, with one repeat visitor noting it as the best they've stayed in during multiple visits to the Lakes.
Facilities have received mixed feedback. While the provision of parking permits is appreciated, there are comments about the need for replacement kitchen utensils and the lack of certain supplies, indicating that some aspects of the facilities could be enhanced.
There is no mention of gifts or additional thoughtful touches beyond the provision of parking permits, which, while appreciated, does not provide enough information to assess the overall thoughtfulness of the hosts.

Location in middle of Ambleside with easy access to supermarkets, restaurants and buses. Took a few minutes to locate - follow the email instructions, as google maps only gets you to the right area. Two car parking permit options - best time to park on the street is probably after 6pm.
