Very nice house in a lovely location with fantastic views over Ambleside and beyond from the large balcony. Comfortable beds and excellent facilities. Good private parking for at least 2 cars. A short walk into Ambleside, but be prepared for a steep set of steps or hill on the way back! Garth is a very responsive host - excellent communication before and during our stay. A great base for exploring the beautiful Lake District.
Lingmell is a fabulous property with spectacular views from the glass fronted balcony. The house is in a great location, so close to town, yet so peaceful. We found many walks from the property without needing to use the car and the bus station is just a 3 minute walk away. Use of the swimming pool was a massive bonus, as was onsite parking. The kitchen appliances are very good- new fridge/dishwasher. The en-suite bedroom is very large with an excellent walk in shower with great water pressure.Garth was an excellent host, making himself available before the visit and checking in on us with a phone call on our first day. We loved our visit so much that we are hoping to visit again next year.
Great location and great facilities with the pool available. Clean, good sized apartment. Helpful host. Thank you!. Would benefit from some curtains to help with sleeping during the summer months, and a knife sharpener!
The house was fab. The views from the rooms were amazing. The bathrooms were amazing. Loved the bath and the walk in shower. Would definitely stay again.

We had an amazing stay in Ambleside. The house was well equipped and clean. It was in easy walking distance to local shops but far enough away to be out the way of any crowds. The balcony gave fabulous views of the setting sun over Ambleside. A Wonderful stay
Lingmell is a fab property. Fab base for a stay in Ambleside. View is amazing. We holiday here most years and will continue to do so for many year's to come.
Excellent location with parking and walking distance to Ambleside.l Good comfortable beds and bathrooms. Lovely views from the balcony.
Had a really good week despite the weather not being brilliant.
Amazing location, a few minutes walk from the shops and restaurants in Ambleside. 15 min walk to Lake Windermere and Ambleside pier. Lots of beautiful walks from the doorstep. We didn’t use the car for days! Clean and comfortable accommodation with great views. Would definitely recommend
This is our third trip to Lingmell and such a pleasure it is to stay in this perfectly located home. The stunning views comfortable feel and delightful features such as clean comfortable beds and delightful bathrooms.
We will certainly be back again to Lingmell and are planning the trip as I write this.
Amazing location and a lovely place with everything you could need for a super holiday in the lakes. Right in the centre but above it all so away from the hustle and bustle and very peaceful. Amazing views over Ambleside and the fells. Added bonus of the pool and spa. Very helpful friendly host. Would definitely return here.
Excellent property yards from the centre of ambleside but tucked away enough to be in a quiet location. The house itself was spacious enough for us 5 and a dog. It felt like home from home which is always a big plus. Will recommend with 5* approval from us.
Wonderful clean spacious property, perfectly located, just 5 minutes from the town centre.
Fantastic views from the double length balcony that leads from both the lounge and master bedroom, overlooking Ambleside.
Garth, the owner, has put a lot of effort into making this a well provided for property. We will definitely be booking again

Hi there Simon we really appreciate your positive comments .You are always welcome to visit .
Thanks

This house is high on a hill so view from the balcony is second to non. A great viewing platform for the F35 jets too! Its high up position does mean steep walks up and down. The house is big and easily accommodated the 5 of us and we found everything we needed for a great week. The pool is 3 mins walk away and was a nice addition.

Hi there Katrina .We are really pleased that you enjoyed the viewing platform .and had a great week .
Just to clarify that Lingmell is situated just about 80 feet above Ambleside centre on lower gale a wide level terraced area ,occupied by other holiday homes and a timeshare facility .The walk to it takes about 5 mins via the gentlest way which follows the gradient of the slope for about 100yards to make it relatively easy for anyone who is of average physical shape , and expecting the odd walk as they are in the Lake District .
I think the wording” high on a hill “is a little misleading regarding Lingmell’s location in lower gale and perhaps applies to properties located beyond on the way to higher gale and Sweden bridge .Which is also very popular for holiday homes.
Thanks for taking the time to write a review
We have just had a great holiday in the lakes. The house was in a brilliant location just a couple of minutes into the centre but far enough away to be peaceful.There was everything we needed in the house and it was clean throughout. The pool next door is a huge plus and the view is absolutely stunning.If I had to make any criticism it would be that the blinds need some attention but it didn't impede our stay at all.Thank you for hosting us
We have recenlt come back from a wonderful stay at Lingmell. The property is in a super location overloooking Ambleside. Fab balcony for when the weather is dry but the patio doors also allow the views to be appreciated in all weathers. We have stayed here on numerous occasions and hope to continue to do so for years to come. The host is always contactable and always checks that everything is ok with our stay.
House was exactly as described. I rented the house for the patio and garden hoping for good weather . Unfortunately we got really bad weather but the views were still beautiful.
The house was very comfortable and very relaxing . Garth was very helpful and I would definitely rent again .

Hi there Maria
Thanks for the comments we are really pleased you enjoyed the house and views.
You are always welcome!

This is a beautiful property in a prime location overlooking Ambleside. The house has everything you could need and more. Warm, comfortable with amazing views from the large balcony overlooking Ambleside and beyond to the breathtaking views of the hills and countryside. Just a few minutes (steep) walk from Ambleside town centre and everything this bustling lakeland town has to offer, pubs, restaurants and shopping a plenty. Excellent comms from Garth made the booking in process very easy from start to finish and the use of the swimming pool and jacuzzi at the nearby Lakeland Centre was an added bonus. I would highly recommend this property and look forward to re-visiting it again soon. Thanks Garth👍
