Great place!
Everything was great. It was just steps from the center but quiet at night. I’d stay again in a heartbeat!

Kirkstone Cottage Ambleside
This is the fourth time that we have stayed in this quaint little cottage. The cottage itself is equipped with everything you need for your stay. The location is excellent with shops, pubs and restaurants only a short walk away. The cottage has an allocated parking space which is large enough for a medium sized car. There is a steep step down in order to access the cottage which needs to be considered for people with mobility issues.

8/10 Good
