“Riverbank cottage is an amazing gem location is spectacular where you can park your car up and take walks from your doorstep.”

Ambleside, Grasmere and Rydal water are close by to explore. As for the cottage very well equipped for everything you could need a welcome pack and fire logs where a nice touch , I can fully recommend Riverbank cottage for a breakaway in the beautiful Lake District

“This property is in an excellent location, with a lot of character to the building.”

However, the cleanliness of the property needs attention. Dust webs, dirty kitchen appliances, bread crumbs left in bread bin. Around the flooring, dust & dirt. Dirty cupboard doors. Dirty soap dispensers in the bathroom. There should be a sign outside the front door, warning people of the slippery tiles when wet…accident waiting to happen. The property met all our living needs for a weeks stay. Would have been nice to have logs for the fire.

“Beautiful location.”

I understand it is due a refurbishment and that was reflected in the price. A welcome pack would have made all the difference, we had to fo back out for milk & tea after driving all the way down from Scotland. Also some information leaflets. Staying in October the weather was turning chilly and yet the timed heating didn't come on until around 10am and then went off shortly after, we never figured out when it came back on again. It would have been good to have been provided with a few logs as we were looking forward to arriving at dusk and having a fire. Just one or two clothes washing tabs would also have been appreciated. Very slippery in the bathroom without a bathmat or anything to soak up the water. It is a beautiful old cottage and with relatively little money and more thought could be a welcoming home from home.

About the location

RYDAL

Ambleside 1.6 miles; Grasmere 2.7 miles.

Lying to the north of Ambleside and Windermere, Rydal is a charming unspoilt village full of history and which has changed little in the last two hundred years. Rydal Water with its shoreline walks adds an extra tranquillity to the location, which is one of the central most points of the Lake District. Home to William Wordsworth for some years there are many walks spreading out from Rydal with spectacular views. Wander along hillside paths to Grasmere, or up the impressive Rydal Fell and Nab Scar with fantastic scenery spanning as far as the hills on the west coast on a clear day. Or stroll through Rydal Park with its ancient and magnificent trees, past the thunderous waterfalls, revered by Wordsworth, and on to Ambleside with its numerous shops, restaurants and pubs to suit all tastes. Only a short drive away is Windermere with its water sports and boat cruises on Lake Windermere, England’s largest lake.
