“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 ...

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.

“Apple Tree Cottage (near Windermere), The cottage is very central, comfortable and convenient.”

All on the same level and very easy parking was much appreciated by us. The directions to the unit were easy to follow which enabled us to find the property without any problem. However, we would like to stress that when leaving the cottage on the A591 "at the bottom of the lane" for Keswick and beyond a difficult right hand turn is required on a very busy road. Holidaymakers should be aware of this turning. Best wishes to Caroline and Dave and to say that we enjoyed our stay so very much. Ann & Charles, North Wales

“Shower water would not drain away very quickly- suspect outlet was blocked.”

Everything else was fine.

Thank you very much for your comments and for raising this issue. Please be assured that this has now been sorted out and the shower is draining properly again. The furniture and all contents in the cottage are new (since we refurbished the cottage in March 2019), so we are delighted to hear that everything else was working fine. With very best wishes, Apple Tree Cottage owners. Owner relations

“Have used Sykes before with a good property so I had no problems using them again.”

The cottage is situated 3 miles north of Windermere in a great position to visit major attractions in the area. The cottage itself is in a small complex of 12 individual apartments. Very comfortable with every thing you need for a break. The owner left wine, beer and various biscuits and drink making packets so no rush to find a shop. Fully equipped with Tv and radio as well as Wi-Fi. If you do not want to drive, then busses in both direction are available at the end of the drive.

“We couldn't find a hairdryer - not sure if there wasn't one or if a previous client has taken it.”

.. The hot water didn't function for the final evening and morning but we managed - the boiler had a red light on it. I left a note but hope it was fixed in time for the next holidaymaker! An out of hours number would have been useful so we could have reported it sooner.

Thank you very much for your comments and for rating Apple Tree Cottage so highly. We are very sorry to hear that there was an issue with the boiler on your last night and thank you for taking the time to leave a note. Our wonderful team based in the Lakes check that all is working in the property before guests arrive we are just really sorry that this issue came to light during your stay! Please be assured that the boiler is now working well. Based on your feedback and that of previous guests, we will buy a new hairdryer which we will put into the cottage shortly. Many thanks for your helpful feedback. With very best wishes, Apple Tree Cottage owners. Owner relations

“We arrived early and all was ready for our stay.”

Nice little touches with the wine and beer. After eight chocolates beside our bed. Nice. Ideal location to explore the area. Bus stop at the end of the driveway. We used the local open topped buses a lot during our stay. We also walked the two bridle ways near by. We found nice places to eat within five miles and made notes in the info book. All in all we were very happy with our choice and outdoor recommend AppleTree cottage as the ideal holidays accommodation. A hair dryer was the only item not included in the inventory but everything else was provided.
Mr Ashman June 2019

“We found the cottage to be very clean and comfortable and also accessible to buses travelling to various parts of the lake district.”

We appreciated the surrounding gardens and woodland with the birds and other wildlife.
Mrs Turner May 2019

“Apple Tree Cottage is a perfect cottage in a perfect location to access all the attractions and provides all the comforts to create a home from home appeal.”

Definitely recommend.

“The cottage was lovely, with everything we needed.”

the location was excellent.
Dr Hinton April 2019

“The location was great, really peaceful and quiet but close to the bustle of Ambleside and Windermere.”

The cottage is delightful, well equipped and very comfortable with lovely outside seating areas. Only thing missing was a hairdryer but luckily I’d thrown mine in my bag at the last minute.
Mr Mclean April 2019

“This was our first stay at Apple Tree cottage and my wife and I had a really wonderful time.”

We have rented cottages in the Lake's for over 40 years and this rate with the best. The cottage is tastefully decorated and furnished as is the kitçhen, with front and rear patios and beautiful views you could not ask for anything more. If you are looking for a "special" place to stay, you have just found it, enjoy!. Paula &Dave McLean.
Mr Steel March 2019

“This is our second visit to Apple Tree Cottage.”

Since our last visit in 2014 the property has (just) changed hands and has been renovated/upgraded to the highest standards. Warm, cozy, relaxing and very well equipped. Also we chose this property again because of it's quiet and yet central location in the lakes. Both Bowness and Ambleside are just a few minutes away by car. Plenty of walking trails nearby. We would definitely stay again.
Mr Strange March 2019

“A very comfortable well appointed ‘home’ from home.”

Lovely location. We certainly want to re-visit again and will try to stay in the same cottage.
