“Spring Cottage is an amazing place to stay and very hard to put into words how impressed we were with everything.”

Very well equipped, fantastic oven/hob and shower facilities and very useful porch area. Great for families with lots of different areas in the house to sit and enjoy the wonderful views. So much thought has gone into everything at Spring Cottage. The location is outstanding.

“Overall, the property is excellent.”

5 stars and one of the best we have stayed in over the last 15 years. The property has a great layout with lots of interesting space to enjoy. Only three first-world problems. As mentioned by another guest, the kitchen set-up is a little irregular (certainly got in my steps). Either the dishwasher or the eco tablet is not great: crockery needs a rinse at the sink because some will not come out clean. Lastly, nice to meet the owner briefly upon arrival. A second meeting at 9.30 on exit day was ok but it felt like we were being hustled out - especially as the cleaner was also sat in her car next to mine waiting. Good job, we left at 9.58 by my watch. Didn’t feel like I had that extra 10mins to write this in the guestbook! Well, it was never going to be perfect but it was pretty close. Thank you. Shane.

- Shane, April 2024

Hello Shane, It was nice to meet you on arrival when I was finishing work in the wood. It was also a real pleasure to answer your questions about the cottage and woodland so I’m very sorry if you felt in any way being “hustled out”. I often arrive about 9-30 ish on changeover day because there is so much for me to do in the garden that I can start on the bottom section without hopefully disturbing our guests. I always park at the bottom of the drive and don’t go up to the cottage until guests have left. Please accept my apologies if you felt rushed- it was never our intention. I’m glad you enjoyed the cottage and thank you for the 100% review despite this. I will check the dishwasher. Steven Property Owner

“We had a super time at Spring Cottage.”

We met the owners Steve and Fiona when we arrived. They were so helpful and you could tell immediately how much well they take care of the house and its grounds. They had even kindly lit the fire for us, which made it feel so cosy. The house is superbly equipped and huge inside. Everything was spotlessly clean. The grounds are fun to explore. And you couldn’t beat the location in the Lakes - we barely got in our cars all week, we mostly went on adventures from the doorstep.

“Spring Cottage is a great place to stay.”

Excellent location with an easy walk into Ambleside. The house is very well equipped and has all amenities that you could need. The master bedroom and bathroom is amazing and a real wow factor for the house. Ample parking for cars meant it was a great stay for me and my family (6 adults, 1 baby). Very comfortable, cosy and warm after a long day of walking.

“Had a lovely stay at Spring Cottage.”

The cottage itself passed all our expectations! The facilities in the home are by far the best we’ve had via lakelovers (and we’ve had many over the years) with the added touch of logs being provided! The grounds are just fantastic which the whole family could enjoy, including our four legged friend! We were just a family of 4 so the two largest bedrooms (double master and twin) were just perfect and with lots of space (and what an en-suite the master double has, wow!) but I have to say I would be disappointed if having to use the small double room if visiting with more than 2 adults so other may want to take note of the size if visiting as a group. We were so pleased with our stay we wanted to book immediately again for 2025 but it’s a shame that the prices have gone up! We managed to get the house during a sale so that plus the increase is deterring us returning unfortunately which we are very sad about after such a lovely stay. It’s frustrating school holidays have to be such a premium at rentals when parents have no choice to travel then.

“We have stayed at Spring Cottage on quite a few occasions and it does not disappoint.”

Great location with good walking from the door, well located for getting out and about the wider lake District and yet a quiet and relaxing base. Very well appointed kitchen with no shortage of pots / pans / cutlery etc. Lovely space for socialising with alternatives for those wanting to be quiet.

“My Wife, Son and his partner stayed at Spring Cottage in November.”

The location of Spring cottage is idyllic with views of Wansfell Pike and the River Rothay. The owners have expertly transformed this cottage from a simple cottage into a very comfortable luxury home with a superb garden. We would highly recommend this as a perfect base to explore the Lake District from.

“The cottage was beautiful, along with the stunning views, and beautifully maintained colourful gardens.”

Beds were comfy, WiFi worked, games room was fun, plenty of board games for use, There are lovely places to easily walk and enjoy the views. Information booklets were provided. It was truly lovely. I cannot give this five stars because of things that need tending to, or updating. I'm sorry but, the couches in the lounge seem to not have been cleaned in ages, and that was unsettling. One bath towel, per person for an entire week was too few (many people with long full hair, need a second towel for their hair, or a second towel during the stay). Even the cheapest places we've ever been to offer something for a first morning (or beyond the first morning). We've even been left 'welcome baskets' with scones and jam. It would have been nice to have had even instant packets of coffee and a couple of tea bags and biscuits for that first morning (I cannot think of any hotel or B&B that doesn't provide that). We had to go shopping, came home and made eggs, only to find there was no salt and pepper (and I certainly wasn't going to make the run out again, when hot eggs were on the table). Some very inexpensive long-use items such as these, would have been appreciated. The cottage stated it wanted specific soaps to help keep the water system clean (that's fine--no problem)--but an absolutely minimal supply was provided (less than a quarter of a bottle in two sinks, nothing... not even a simple bar of soap in the shower, no clothes washing powder). I'm fine if I must bring my own, but to then find it's unsuitable and can't be used, then to go to the market and find the cottage friendly 'Ecover' products weren't in stock and spending time searching for 'acceptable products'--well, this was a headache--I don't want shopping worries, or commitments when on holiday, please. A small self-turn-on light at the master bedroom vanity would be nice (constantly walking back and forth to the opposite wall isn't a big task, but it's a nuisance), along with a self-turn-off light at the bedside (falling asleep and having to get up and go to the wall to turn off a light seems ridiculous). Also, a magnifying mirror at the master vanity please (it's very helpful for aiding in applying make-up, or using tweezers). The kitchen layout is odd, but that's just my opinion and it can't be changed--the dishwasher is across from the sink, not beside it, and the rubbish bin is clear across from the sink on the opposite wall. Large spatulas, spoons etc. to cook with are most handy when in the drawer next to the stove whilst cooking, instead of across the kitchen in an inconvenient place. We had a big pot that we brought for a family dinner (glad we did--there are pots, but not one BIG pot). The ladle is way too small and short--almost like a camping ladle--a long handled one would have proved very helpful. There's only one jug which was used as a water jug, but we didn't have another jug for juice. We separated our glass, plastic, paper, compost, and rubbish, only to find upon leaving, that there was only one 'all-in-one rubbish bin' out front. Very sad and disappointing, considering the cottage did not want any chemicals, sanitisers, oil, or even milk down their drains, and wanted everything 'eco' with 'Ecover'. We did see that there was a recycling plant when we were on our way out, but the car was packed full of our suitcases etc., and we certainly weren't going to drive back to the cottage, separate everything, and take everything there. I would hope that the owners could provide many bins, for these several usages. Constantly pouring the bit of excess milk from a cereal bowl or coffee cup (milk and oil cannot be poured down the drain) into the bin seems wrong, and then the bag leaked, and I spent my time cleaning a bin--not what I care to do on holiday. I would have paid the extra twenty pounds (that would have been an overpayment, but I would have paid it) in knowing that basic things: soap in the shower, full liquid soaps and washing powder, a few tea bags, some coffee and UHT milk packets, a small bottle of vegetable oil (or similar), a few tea biscuits, and salt and pepper were provided. Most travellers are tired, have packed and unpacked, and just want to waken to a shower with soap, and a simple something to eat and a hot drink, to get them started. I felt this seemed both cheap, rude, and unwelcoming on behalf of a luxury cottage. When places really 'welcome' my family--I can tell you, I am impressed, start off very happy, and I recommend the place to friends, and want to return there myself. Although the cottage was nice, pretty, roomy, great views...I would not want to return because it did not provide the basic niceties, and I would not want to spend my time cleaning someone else's bin, ever again.

- Mark, August 2023

I'm sorry to read your review Mark. You raise many items and I will try and answer most. 1. Recycling. Like most holiday lets here we use Cumbria Waste Group. Whilst everything goes in the one bin the company do recycle from this with their own facility. There was information to say this in our cottage book when you stayed but I've added some more information on it. There was therefore no need to separate out items. 2. Cleaning Products. We do provide our own Ecover cleaning products and hand wash. At the time of your stay we had just switched from cleaning the cottage ourselves to employing our cleaner Diane who is excellent. If there was insufficient for your stay due to this change I'm sorry but a call to us would have allowed you access to our storeroom in the cottage where you could have restocked. 3. Towels. Guests are provided with a bath towel and hand towel for their stay. 4. Bedside light . There are bedside lights with their own switches in the master bedroom. The main 3 gang light switch at the door for the other lights would not be appropriate at the bedside . 5. Kitchen. We spent a long time designing the kitchen and we think it works brilliantly including the location of the dishwasher. As to equipment guests tell us it is very well equipped according to our guest book. We did have a 5 litre stockpot there during your stay but we have now added an 8.5 litre as well. 6. Tea & Coffee. We used to leave a basic supply of tea, sugar salt and pepper etc when we did our own changeovers and have now reinstated this. Thank you for your other comments. Steven Property Owner

“What a lovely stay we all had as a group of friends and family.”

This is a great location for exploring this fabulous part of the countryside and the cottage makes the most of this with fantastic views from every window. The owners have worked very hard with this cottage from the stylish ensuite to the lovely gardens extending in all directions. There’s a great games room too where I’d imagine any children would love to get away from there parents! As a group friends we liked there’s different areas to relax and still have your own space. Unfortunately we did have a power cut on our last day for 10 hours which did scuppered our plans for the evening meal and also meant the on-site water for the property went down leading to no water so be prepared to have plenty in bottles for drinking and cooking. The only things we would have liked to have was bbq to make the most of the fantastic garden and ladies please fetch your own hair dryers. We would thoroughly recommend staying at this fantastic home and wouldn’t think twice about booking again!

Patsy June 2023

“Sixty meters above sea level and an idyllic spot near rydal water.”

A private steep woodland to explore. Who could ask for a serene spot in which to sketch . The cool downstairs bedrooms, together with an amazing en-suite and garden room is a luxury. We had a wonderful hot week. The owner met us at four when we arrived. He explained the house water system . It was perfect.

Spring Cottage is in a lovely location. and a great place to return to after a day on the fells or just exploring.

“Great to be greeted with a Christmas tree and burning log fire, very welcoming.”

Facilities and space ideal, indoor and out, for our family of 5 and golden retriever! Lots of great walks from the door. It was a shame one of the double ovens didn't work, which made our Christmas dinner more of a challenge. We let the owners know, so hopefully it will be working for next Christmas - as we've already booked again!

- Jennie, December 2022
Kimberley December 2022

“This really is an outstanding property which I am loathed to fault at all.”

We had a fantastic time and I would most certainly stay here again. A couple of small things to improve our stay would be: 1. More matches to light the fires as we ran out immediately and in December this is quite important. The property is quite cold even with the heating on. 2. Bin bags would be helpful. I wanted to empty the bin before it got overloaded but was unable to as there wasn’t a new bin bag. 3. Cleanliness overall I felt was good. Linens clean and the place smelled fresh but there were cobwebs and dust everywhere which would not take much removing and make the place feel so much better. The floors in particular had cobwebs and the windows and blinds. 4. Directions to the property were fine but finding the property was hard as it is not obvious from the road where the property is and in December after a long drive in the rain and the dark this made for a bit of a stressful arrival. A lit sign that can be seen from both directions down at the bottom of the drive would help with this. Then locating the key was a challenge because there is a log store next to the property but the actual log store is at the bottom of the drive. When you know it’s obvious but again in the dark and rain and after a long drive this was problematic. I called the helpline though and this was solved very quickly. 5. Struggled with baking trays that would accommodate pizzas. The positives far outweigh the negatives and are too numerous to list but what springs to mind are: Wedgwood crockery, the overall quality of the refurbishment, the fires, the master suite, the games and books, the kitchen with everything (except bin bags), the utility, the boot room, the games room, the tv with sky and Netflix, the walks and location, the sound system. All fabulous! It’s the perfect place for a large group or family, it’s a perfect party house it would be perfect for a couple or smaller group looking for a quiet getaway. It’s ideal for hiking and our little dog really enjoyed her first holiday ever.

- Kimberley, December 2022
Alison December 2022

“The property is a beautiful house comfortable but not that clean when we arrived.”

But we had a great holiday until the last day when we were leaving and in snowy icy conditions that drive is dangerous as we had to use a piece of wood to clean the driveway

Heidi October 2022

“The property is lovely, and it is one of the best designed places we have been in - the building itself uses every opportunity to showcase the wonderful views and surroundings.”

However, when we arrived at 4pm the owners were still there cleaning and we didn’t get in until nearly half past 4. They apologised and also explained the toilet in the upstairs bedroom wasn’t properly functioning (good job we didn’t fill the property with our parents/friends, because this would’ve been a problem). And then we realised there were no hairdryers. We haven’t stayed anywhere in the lakes in the last 20 years that hasn’t supplied one. Not a huge issue though as Heart of the Lakes supplied one but all these little things were a bit annoying given we had paid £3k of hard earned cash for the week.

Daniel August 2022

“A nice place to stay with lovely views from the higher levelled kitchen and garden room over the River Rothay.”

Excellent master bedroom suite, but a shame that the two double bedrooms aren’t more equitable in size and quality when there are 2 families staying. The kitchen was really well equipped however some of the crockery needs replacing as there was a few damaged items in the range. We left these out for the owners to discard of.

- Daniel, August 2022

D December 2021

“A fantastic Christmas stay, well appointed with a real home from home feel.”

We were made to feel very welcome and arriving after a long journey to a fire gently burning in the wood burner made us both smile. We could quite happily live in this wonderful cottage and reading through the photo albums on the renovations, it’s clear how passionate the owners are about this home and it’s beautiful surroundings.

Jason July 2021

“For the new raised prices I’d expect feather rather than synthetic pillows / duvet’s, the mattress protector was a ‘water proof’ one which wasn’t too pleasant to sleep on, though with the pricey comfortable mattress I understand why!”

Lot of cobwebs around and floors didn’t seem to have been mopped. Otherwise great place, high spec, well equipped and very comfortable and enjoyable stay.

“Sykes have been awful.”

We had additional charges on the property having moved the booking during COVID. They had no accounting trail and had not made us aware of this. Customer support was extremely poor and my complaint has still not been answered. I would not recommend Sykes. The property itself is still a fantastic place and my feedback is critical of the company and not the property.

The property

This delightful detached cottage has been completely renovated and extended to provide a superb holiday home for families or couples.

The property nestles on the edge of ancient semi natural woodland in the hillside on the lower slopes of Loughrigg Fell, close to the famous stepping stones which cross the River Rothay, and just a short walk from beautiful Rydal Water.

There are walks in the area for all ages and abilities and some of the most picturesque scenery in Lakeland is virtually 'on your doorstep'.

The Rydal Round, Loughrigg Terrace and the summit of Loughrigg are all to hand as is the famous Fairfield Horseshoe, along with more secluded walks through adjoining woodland. The cottage is reached up a tree-lined gated drive and there is private parking for up to four cars.

This is a very peaceful location on the old road from Rydal to Ambleside, virtually free of passing traffic in the heart of the lakes. Accommodation: Steps from the parking area lead into the entrance hall with feature stonework and window seat.

Shower room with basin and wc and small utility room.

Lovely spacious kitchen/dining room (lighting control system) with cosy seating area to one end with log burning stove and floor to ceiling windows overlooking the garden at the other end.

Separate lounge (55" TV with Sky Q, DVD, Wi-Fi, CD player and radio) with further log burning stove.

Garden room with windows all the way around to the patio doors to the terrace makes the most of the views over the garden and beyond the River Rothay to Wansfell Pike.

Twin bedroom also on this level with en-suite shower, basin and wc. Downstairs leads to three more bedrooms - a master suite with super king bed (TV) with very spacious bathroom (separate shower, bath, twin basins, wc , and mood lighting), and doors out to small conservatory with seating overlooking the garden.

A large twin room with doors to the garden and a smaller double which share the family bathroom (bath, separate shower, basin and wc). Separate from the house is a games room with table tennis table. Spring cottage is very comfortably furnished with karndean flooring and fitted carpets throughout.

Sonos music system can be used in 4 separate zones within the house.

Gas central heating. Outside: There is a large garden on various levels with steps (part of which is enclosed) and edged by woodland and rock outcrops along one side extending to over 10 acres through which you are free to wander and explore.

This is a unique feature of the cottage allowing you private access to a beautiful woodland area.

Garden table and chairs.

Parking for up to four cars in the drive.

Pub 5 mins walk, village and shops approx. 1 mile.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £200.

About the location

AMBLESIDE

Grasmere 4.4 miles; Windermere 4.7 miles; Keswick 16.7 miles.

Lying at the northern tip of Lake Windermere, England’s largest lake, Ambleside makes a superb base for touring the central Lakes, with Grasmere and the Langdale Valley just a short drive away. There is plenty to do here - cruises, boat trips and watersports on Lake Windermere itself and numerous shops, restaurants and pubs in the village to suit all tastes. On the lakeside at Waterhead, the parkland offers lovely views down the lake and a short stretch of beach, whilst a walk in the other direction, following Stock Ghyll through woodland, will bring you to the entrancing waterfall of Stock Ghyll Force. Along with the Lake and the great walking on offer, Ambleside is also famous for its annual rushbearing ceremony and the diminutive 17th century “Bridge House” - one of the most photographed buildings in the Lake District and now the National Trust Information Centre.

Note: Dogs are only welcome upstairs.
