Very convenient for walk through park into Ambleside

The location was perfect, in very quiet part of Ambleside opposite Rothay Park, 12 minutes walk from the centre. Comfortable beds, plenty of facilities, very cosy and very warm. Keys in the key safe so straight in the property no messing around. Lots of hiking routes, plenty to see, plenty to eat, we really do love Ambleside 😊
This property comes highly recommended and we'll be booking again for later in the year, autumn time most likely...
The power shower didn't get hot and the pole detached from the wall in the electric shower! Reported this to Sykes who promptly sent an engineer to repair the electric shower pole, I presume parts were needed for the power shower as that remained cold (repair occurred whilst we were hiking) The sash windows are a battle to open and close when airing the property, bit of lubrication in the runners maybe?

Our stay at Millerbeck was one of the best stays we've had! Firstly the accommodation; beautiful apartment within an old and attractive house with its own parking and sweeping drive from the road. Facilities were perfect, cozy, warm, very quiet (apart from the occasional RAF jet fighter training over the Lake District, which we loved) and well equipped. After a day of climbing, walking and sight-seeing, coming "home" felt great. Bedrooms (two) were en-suite, and comfortable. Now let's mention location. Millerbeck is only a ten minute stroll to Ambleside town centre, via a charming lane, and park. You don't need to worry about traffic as the walk is virtually traffic free. Ambleside, of course, has its good share of restaurants, shops and facilities including a cinema and numerous good pubs. There are regular bus services to other lakes places like Windermere, Keswick, Bowness etc.
We would caution against walking home late at night because the route through the lane and park is not illuminated. There is no sense of insecurity in the area at all, but coming from a city environment (London) we preferred to err on the side of caution). On the one occasion when we were out after dark, we used a taxi to get home (about £7) which was worth the peace of mind (the pubs will have taxi cards and numbers if you're stuck).
Millerbeck is ideally placed for walks right from your doorstep. There's a charming walk to Rydal and Keswick, as well a challenging walk to Loughrigg Fell rewarded with fabulous views. For our other outings we drove, and like anywhere in the Lakes, driving comes with exceptional views wherever you're going.
We would highly recommend this property for your stay in the Lakes.
Couldn't find a cheese grater!

It was quiet, good location to everything
Didn’t like the fact that the cleaners turned up before the departure time . They were waiting outside with their car running waiting for us to get out . Left a sour tinge to the
