Summary
The property was well-located and spacious, ideal for large groups and families with dining and play areas. However, access was challenging due to steep steps, and the layout was complex without a floor plan. Some areas needed better cleaning and there were issues with the sauna and toilet facilities.
The property
In the heart of Ambleside, amidst the breathtaking surroundings of the Lake District National Park, is Dixon Court, a spectacular three-story apartment.
Twelve visitors are invited to spend a fun-filled holiday at Dixons Court with their two four-legged friends in this stunning region of Cumbria.
It offers a wood-burning stove, an open-plan living room that is ideal for entertaining guests and spending quality time with loved ones, and parking in the lot next door.
Ascend to the first-floor terrace entrance area from the courtyard.
Once you pass through the front door, you will be on the first floor, where there is a spacious cloakroom and a family room with twin singles and a bunk bed in addition to three gorgeous bedrooms, including two king-size rooms.
You can get ready for the day in elegance or freshen up before going to the neighbourhood bar in this section, which also includes the main bathroom and additional WC. And what better way is there to unwind and relax after a day of exploration than in the sauna room.
A beautifully furnished open-plan sitting area with a Smart TV and a blazing wood stove can be found on the second floor, along with a well-equipped kitchen with a breakfast bar where you can prepare and serve delectable meals.
You may access the quaint alpine dining space and a ski-themed snug from the kitchen and living area that are open to one another.
Step outside the dining area onto the west balcony, where you can sit back and relax while admiring the stunning views of Loughrigg as the sun sets. A double bedroom with a vanity, a Juliet balcony, and a shower room comletes this floor, making it the perfect location to unwind and read a book.
You'll find everything you need in one room as you up the stairs to the third level, including a lovely attic king-size bedroom with an ensuite bathroom, a living space with a sofa, and a kitchenette area with coffee/tea making facilities.
If you can tear yourself away from this magnificent home, start your day with a fun activity for the whole family at White Platts Miniature Golf or the climbing wall at Ambleside (right next door), and then explore the town centre of Ambleside, where there are a tonne of places to stop for a satisfying lunch or a sweet treat.
Outside your door, take in the breathtaking beauty of Stock Ghyll Force waterfall, or see The Bridge House, a strange 17th-century structure that overlooks the River Rothay. Ambleside is a great place to base yourself if you want to explore the eastern fells of the Lake District.
Numerous hikes, both short and long, high and low, begin from this town. Why not schedule a Shampooch at the ground-floor dog grooming salon if you have planned a muddy excursion with your four-legged friend?
At the renowned Lake Windermere, just a short drive away, you can test your skills at a range of water sports, including paddleboarding and kayaking. Visit Wray Castle or The World of Beatrix Potter Attraction to relive your youth if you'd prefer to learn about history and literature. Why not reserve a table at one of Ambleside's Michelin-starred eateries, several of which are nearby? Because Orrest Head Viewpoint, Rydal Mount and Gardens, and Wordsworth Grasmere are all within easy driving distance from here, there will never be a shortage of things to do and see. For a unique escape, stay at Dixons Court any time of year.
