Upon arrival, our immediate impressions were excellent. Ethna our lovely host greeted us straight away & assisted with our luggage & directions to the nearby private parking.
Our apartment was absolutely beautifully decorated & very comfortable, with everything you could wish for a very pleasant stay. Everywhere within the apartment was wonderful & we also had exceptional views looking across to the fells, which was very pleasing with morning coffee, before heading off on a wonderful trail walk, recommended by our host.
We had a wonderful relaxing time staying at Barnes Fell apartments & are already looking ahead to returning again very soon.
There was nothing at all that we didn't like.

Location superb for visiting Ambleside and surrounding areas. Once arrived and parked up we didnt need the car for local attractions as the centre of Ambleside is literally 1-2mins walk away. Very well laid out accommodation with everything thought of and added personal touch by an excellent host. We will definitely be back and it will be our first choice for accommodation in Ambleside.

We stayed in the Fairfield apartment. Clean, comfortable and well equipped for a short stay. Wonderful views from the large bay window (which provides wonderful natural light) or the breakfast bar when having your morning brew. Location is good with quick access to the village - either take the road, the 70 + steps or a sloped path - the choice is yours!! An attentive host who has a genuine interest in her guests; even got me a birthday card as this was the reason for our weekend away. Would not hesitate to recommend to others.
Nothing - all good.

It was in a great location; a very comfortable, light apartment and impeccably clean! The owner was attentive and very kind and friendly!
So many walks were available from the doorstep, and of course the delights of Ambleside, just two minutes away from the quietest possible second floor apartment( with a view)!

Excellent location, wonderful host, kitchen too small for long term stay.
Unfortunately the heating was not consistent, and the owner addressed it appropriately.

We stayed in the Fairfield Apartment which was beautifully decorated, lots of natural light and extremely clean. The views were stunning. It was very well equipped with everything we needed and in a quiet location. The bed was very comfortable and we slept really well. It was a short walk into the centre of Ambleside where there are lots of shops, restaurants, bars etc. There is also a bus station close by if you wanted to explore the Lake District by bus. The private parking place was a bonus. Ethna, the host, was so very friendly and helpful, nothing was too much trouble. Great communication from booking our stay to leaving. Thank you Ethna and Nick for making our stay so enjoyable we will definitely stay again. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

The owners were perfect hosts. Extremely helpful and friendly. The apartment was clean and bright well equipped with comfortable furniture. Good location close to amenities and you were rewarded with beautiful views after the steep climb to the property. The hosts allowed us to use their parking space because it was not possible to park outside the property.

Perfect little apartment for two of us to enjoy our stay in Ambleside. Great location, cosy apartment, and Ethna was a wonderful host.
Our apartment was on the top floor so a few stairs but the view was definitely worth the short climb, and there are apartments on the lower floors.
We had everything we needed, including an enthusiastic and warm welcome, and would absolutely stay again.

We enjoyed the apartments central yet quiet location. It's views over ambleside and windermere are fantastic. Ethna the host is very welcoming and friendly, showing us where to park and offering recommendations for things to do. Comfy bed. A perfect place to stay for a getaway in Ambleside!

Everything about this stay was wonderful. Out host Ethna was very welcoming with lots of great information about the local areas and places to visit. If you had any questions she would be more than happy to answer them going above and beyond as a host.
The flat itself was wonderful with plenty of space and wonderful views over Ambleside. The bed was very comfortable and the rooms were cosy and clean! There were even some chocolates left for us to nibble on which was a tasty surprise, as well as coffee, teas, milk, jams, etc.. which were all delicious and a lovely welcoming gesture.
I would reccomend staying here to anyone wanting to make the most out of their visit to Ambleside, with shops only being a short walk away and parking for your car being accessible.
We hope to come back again soon and wish you all the best. :)

Everything! The greeting we received was great; as I have mobility issues Ethna even helped us with our bags etc. The room was spotless and in many respects the photos we saw prior to booking didn't do the apartment justice. We had everything we could possibly need for a short stay and the location is great with absolute stunning views.

We booked an apartment and a single room for our stay. We liked everything about the accommodation. It is cosy, super convenient and comfortable. Ambleside is pretty with easy to access to scenic hikes and historic attractions. Barnes Feel is only 2-3’ walk into Ambleside town and bus station.
The host - Ethna - was super helpful. We would rate her hospitality six stars if we could! She made us feel like home, provided us everything we needed, and allowed us to leave the luggage there after we checked out.
Highly recommended!

The proprietor was fantastic and could not do enough to make us feel welcome.
The living space is lovely with amazing views of the fells from the very comfortable and light living room.
The location is great - although only a 5 minute walk into the town centre, the property is situated a sufficient distance to feel as if you are very much away from everything.
Nothing.

The room and en-suite was clean, comfortable and very well presented. The location was perfect - on a quiet street with lovely views and a very short walk into the main hub. Ethna the host couldn’t be more helpful and friendly.

The room was immaculate and tastefully furnished. The bed was comfortable. The residence is in a quiet area but close to amenities.
The only minor thing was the humming of the mini fridge but I got used to it

Ethna our host could not be more helpful or welcoming! A late evening arrival was met with smiles. The beautiful top floor apartment was immaculate and even better than expected. The apartment was modern and homely with the hot drink selection, milk and marmalade - all a great touch! The location was perfectly idyllic up on the hill of Ambleside, yet only a 2min walk down to the village buzz. Ethna also provided restaurant and walking tips, also a rucksack for us to pack ALL of the snacks for easily accessible walks directly from the apartment. Thank you 😊

Barnes Fell was a lovely 1 bedroom en suite apartment with living room and kitchenette, provided with everything we needed for a short (or longer) stay. Ethna was wonderfully welcoming, friendly, and accommodating before and throughout our stay. We had a brilliant long weekend. I cannot fault Barnes Fell and would happily recommend it.

Lovely room.overlooking the pretty garden at the back. Bed was super comfortable. Everything was immaculately clean. Great shower. The hosts were lovely. They helped me find on-street parking nearby on the first evening by offering to move their own car and when one of the apartments became empty later in my stay they let me use the allocated parking space for that.
It would have been nice to have a mini fridge for the milk given breakfast isn't part of the package.

The apartment was gorgeous, exactly what we were looking for. Everything was spotless, we were made to feel extremely welcome by Ethna who went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. Great location, two mins walk into Ambleside, we had two lovely evening meals out but you could cook in the apartment if you wanted to, it was really well equipped.

The owners are amazing people - they helped me plan my trips around Ambleside and were clearly very keen that I have a great time.
The apartment is superb and the view is gorgeous. Very clean and well maintained. The experience beats staying in a hotel room any day.
Really nothing I can complain about.
