Guests say
ESKDALE is a well-located cottage in Ambleside, praised for its proximity to local pubs and the town centre, with easy parking and ground floor access. Guests appreciate the modern bathroom and self-catering facilities, though there are mixed comments on cleanliness and comfort. The area is quiet, with green spaces for dogs, and the property is ideal for exploring the lakes.
Guests have provided mixed feedback on cleanliness. One mentioned poor cleanliness, while another found the flat very clean. Due to the conflicting reports, the score reflects an average rating.
The location is highly praised for its convenience to the town centre, local pubs, and bus connections to the Lake District, despite being up a steep hill. The easy parking and accessibility are consistently noted as positives.
Comfort receives positive remarks for the ground floor access and overall homeliness. However, one guest mentioned a preference for a firmer bed, and another noted subpar sound insulation. The score reflects a generally comfortable experience with minor drawbacks.
Facilities are well-regarded, with mentions of a modern bathroom and sufficient self-catering equipment. A minor suggestion for a new kettle indicates room for improvement, but overall, the facilities meet guests' needs.
There is no mention of gifts or special thoughtful touches in the reviews provided, so it is not possible to assess this category.

The accommodation was in an ideal location with parking but the cleanliness of the accommodation was poor. The apartment needed a really good clean.

I had a lovely week staying in this property. The flat was very clean and comfortable was all on the ground floor so no stairs! The parking space for my car was directly outside the front door which made it very easy when unloading/loading my car. Great location just above the town and the best 2 pubs in Ambleside just a short walk down the road.
