I had a fantastic stay at my landlord's property in the UK. The room was spacious and impeccably clean. Our landlord was incredibly patient and provided us with great assistance, ensuring a wonderful experience during our stay. Overall, it's a great value accommodation, and I'll definitely choose to stay here again when my family visits the UK in the future!

Great location, next to bus stop and amenities but very quiet at night. The room was very cozy with attention to detail. I loved the shoes tray in the room and at the entrance. There is lots of leaflets, maps and tips available to plan your day.

Rooms were beautifully and comfortably furnished, with all amenities required for a quiet weekend away. The facilities are impeccably clean, tidy, and well maintained. It was wonderful returning to a warm room at the end of many a cold, rainy, and blustery day. Kate, the general manager, went above and beyond with ensuring we got the keys even after the reception was closed -- we were very grateful to her for that. Location is excellent, just a stone's throw from the waterfront and with excellent food options nearby.

    We recently stayed at this charming log house in the Lake District and had a memorable holiday. The room was excellent—cleaned daily, with a very comfortable bed, a TV, a mini fridge, and both a bath and shower. The wonderful mountain views from the room added to the overall pleasant experience. The location is convenient, being just an 8-minute walk from the town center, and the check-in and check-out processes were seamless with detailed instructions provided.

    Nice cheap and cheerful stay in Ambleside. Was doing some hillwalking so just looking for somewhere to get my head down for the night. Great value for money only £80 for the night basic accommodation but clean and lovely old school pub. Great pint wished I’d have had a couple more. Only thing was the music was loud but it didn’t go on too late and I had a good night sleep. Location is great.

    The flat was beautiful I loved staying here. Has everything you would ever need for self catering. Also some personal touches eg. Tampons. Right near Hawkshead where there is a COOP which was very handy. The hob and pans were brilliant. The sofa was very comfy a recliner also charging ports for your phones. The host has gone above and beyond and I am so grateful for that. Had a fantastic holiday and loved staying here.
