“This was the second time we have stayed at Apple Tree.”

Everything was spot on no criticism, just praise for the cottage. The area is wonderful ( even in the wet!!) with Ambleside and Windermere on the doorstep and the walking is great with many suitable circular walks straight from the cottage. Everything was a great credit to the owners. The cleanliness was outstanding especially in view of the present circumstances.

“We had a fantastic break in the lakes.”

This property is ideal for 2 people and the location is ideal. The one thing that may stop me from returning to this property is the size of the bed. The bed is very small and it made for uncomfortable sleep in the evening. By removing one or both of the bedside cabinets a larger bed could be added which would make this property perfect.

Thank you for your comment. We are so pleased to know that you found Apple Tree Cottage to be ideal in all respects other than the size of the bed - we are sorry to hear that you did not find it to be large enough. The bed base and mattress were purchased new when we refurbished in March 2019. The base is a Silent Night oak base and the mattress is a Hypnos mattress, the same type as in Premier Inns, which we purchased especially with the comfort of our guests in mind. The mattress is a standard UK double and we are really sorry that the size didn't suit you. We thank you for giving us the maximum rating for all other aspects of the cottage. With very best wishes, the owners, Apple Tree Cottage. Owner relations

“Good location close to the Honeypot towns of Windemere and Ambleside and makes a good and very comfortable base for a visit to the Lake District.”

Good walks can be found from the cottage itself with some satisfying views over Windemere by taking the footpath from the location (turn left after going through the gate at the entrance.) The cottage itself is well equipped with the basics for your own catering if you so wish and everything was very clean and tidy. Main road very busy most of the time (exceptional circumstances this year - the whole area was busier than usual) but if you fancy a walk into Ambleside it takes about 40 minutes and you won't have the hassle of finding and paying for a car parking space. Would recommend for a walking holiday in stunning scenery provided you don't mind the occasional shower! Ullswater is about a 30 minute drive, Buttermere an hour and ten minutes if you don't mind the last six miles on switchback roads.

“Ideal quite location, despite being between both Ambleside & Windermere.”

Set off the main road down a shared lane-cum-driveway the cottage is part of a cluster of similar characterful holiday accommodation on the property. The lounge has a double aspect so nice and light. It was always quiet, and the overnight heating meant it was always comfortable. Parking is right outside the front door and as it's all on one level very convenient for luggage. Well-equipped kitchen, some DVDs were supplied, heated towel rails (luxury!). Clean and tidy, nice decor and comfy bed. Holiday home away from home. The welcome bottle of both beer and wine was much appreciated on a very hot August day. The Pubs in Troutbeck are well worth visiting both for their food and beer gardens with great views. All in all a handy base to explore the Lake District which was absolutely stunning.
