Pros: - Great communication with hosts- Beautifully decorated- Extremely useful mudroom inside the back door, with plenty of space for boots and coats- Excellent location for hiking- Great village shop/cafe and pub a few minutes' walk away- On-site parking for more than one car (although it is very tight)- Located right by an on-demand bus stop for easy hourly access to Ambleside and Old/New Dungeon Ghyll- Binoculars available for watching the wildlife and admiring the viewsCons: - No tumble dryer (we knew this ahead of time, but having one would have really enhanced our stay, and there is plenty of room for one)- One of the bathrooms (the one next to the attic bedroom) is extremely small- The attic bedroom door doesn't close properly- Only the attic bedroom has true blackout window blinds- Lots of steps throughout the property (some of them steep), which could be challenging if travelling with small children or people with limited mobility- The microwave is small and very basic (does not allow for a precise cooking time to be entered) and there was no splatter guard- Tons of spiders on the lower level!

We are glad you enjoyed the beautiful and iconic location and the decor in the property. The house is a 3 storey property (as listed) so stairs are of course inevitable, guests should not need to use stairs more than usual as the living areas are situated on the middle floor as are 2 of the main entrances. We are very lucky to have space for parking 3 cars and there is further parking available on request at the side of the house. The brand new blackout blinds are of a high quality and other recent guests have found them most effective. We supply a heated, low energy drying rack as we feel that tumble dryers are not environmentally friendly. The microwave is an easy to use standard microwave alongside the double oven and 5 zone induction hob. We are always grateful when guests read our checkout instructions, we don’t ask a lot, unfortunately this did not happen at the end of this stay and the subsequent clean took much longer.
My family and I stayed in this house for a long weekend recently and it was stunning, such a high level of finish in every room and in every possible way. Cannot say enough nice things about the place. Host responded very quickly to any messages sent too. A+
We have been to the lakes a few times over the years but never stayed in ambleside.
The directions provided got us there easily and as we got nearer we started to realise why friends had recommended the area.
The property itself exceeded our expectations, which from the listing photos were already high. Its clear that Carl has left no stone unturned in the redevelopment of this traditional home. The overall finish is top quality as are all of the facilities, furniture, fixtures and fittings etc.
The views down the valley are just breathtaking and we could have happily sat in the warm taking them in but made sure to take on carls suggestions of where to go for walks or food and drinks.
The area has so much to offer and i feel like we only scratched the surface. We’re already making plans to head back in the summer with friends and if the dates work out we’ll 100% be staying at Langdale Boulders. 3 couples would have no issues staying here as each bedroom has its own bathroom.
Thanks so much for making our stay so hassle free. Its just what we needed and look forward to doing it all again.
We had a fantastic time staying here, the house is beautiful in a stunning location. We really enjoyed our time here. Everything was as described with great communication throughout.
