About this house rental
Summary:
Gingersnap Cottage is a beautifully styled Lakeland hideaway, offering a calm and comfortable base for exploring Ambleside and the surrounding fells. Thoughtfully furnished and full of character, this welcoming cottage is ideal for couples, families or friends looking to relax, recharge and enjoy everything the Lakes have to offer.
The Space:
The ground floor is open-plan and sociable, with slate flooring throughout and a warm, inviting feel. The sitting area centres around a wood-burning stove, perfect for cosy evenings after long walks, alongside comfortable leather seating and a TV.
The fully equipped kitchen has everything you need for relaxed self-catering, including modern appliances, ample worktop space and a breakfast bar for casual dining, morning coffee or planning the day’s adventures.
Bedrooms & bathroom
Upstairs you’ll find two thoughtfully presented bedrooms:
A king-size bedroom with an ornamental fireplace and peaceful fell views
A bunk bedroom with full-size mattresses, ideal for children or additional guests
The modern shower room features a walk-in shower, basin and WC, finished in a clean, contemporary style.

Lovely cottage and the house was really nice and very clean and well equippped. Slight downside the wifi code we were sent was the wrong code, 2/3 phone calls later we we4e given the same code however after advice we found the wifi code ( for any readfing this it was under the router) this was much later in the evening which meant we couldnt watch sky go till late in the evening (as we couldnt get the tv on which is our fault as were not very techno) would stay here again though now we now what we now...
