Property- fantastic. Many walks to forests/gardens/fells right from the property- Ferry to towns a 10 min walk. Grounds were charming- the kitchen is incredibly well kitted out for those who like to cook- very comfortable beds and the communication was great with the owners.

This is a beautiful historical home that is close to town, with lovely hosts. We enjoyed our stay very much. The beds were very cozy and warm, the kitchen well appointed, and contacting the host was very easy. We would highly recommend this accommodation!

The property owners are tremendous. Everything about staying at the house was special, including the dogs. WE were there over a bank holiday weekend. The traffic was awful and would recommend staying away from this area on major holidays.

We were a family of 4 + 2 grandparents. This rental served as a super base for exploring the lakes. The property was well stocked with everything we needed for cooking evening meals and we enjoyed playing the board games provided. We also used the fire pit and outdoor space dedicated for this unit. The beds were VERY comfortable! Thank you for a fabulous stay. We will be back!

Nice location, property and friendly owner

5.0 / 10.0

Excellent location with exceptional views a short walk from the edge of Ambleside and very short walk from direct access to the lake. Loverly proportioned period buildings with high ceilings and that feeling of grandeur.

We had the best week at wansfell Holme, the house was perfect. We had plenty room for 6 adults and the house was immaculate. Couldn't be in a better location and Gillian and David were amazing hosts, and their three dogs made our holiday. Amazing views of both the lake and the mountains and with direct access to the fells and nearly direct access to the lake it was ideal. We will definitely be back! 5 stars
