Wonderful week at Hearts House
Beautiful typical slate house on three floors just above the center of Ambleside. Modern kitchen and bathrooms, leather sofas, excellent mattresses, big windows and lots of light, glorious view from three front rooms. There is a half bath off the kitchen (no towel) and two full baths on the first floor, one with bathtub. There is an additional full bath on the third floor, so the top floor bedrooms share a bathroom. Towels, sheets are great but if you are local you might want to bring your own pillows. We especially appreciated the wood burner and the clothes dryer- something we Americans miss in most places across the pond. The house is well equipped with good walking info and there was even a waterproof map. We had a lovely stay and found it easy to walk to town and take some walks into the countryside without even using the car. The parking was also great though I admit it was a bit tight getting in and out of the driveway because the road next to the house is so narrow! I recommend going past the driveway and backing in. When leaving go further up the street where you can do a u-turn. All in all Hearts House was a great find- obviously carefully curated by its owners and a pleasure to visit! We hope to return.
