  : We had an enjoyable week at Todd Cragg View. The cottage is right in the heart of Ambleside but set up high above the High Street so not noisy. It's a steep climb up steps from the main road which provides an very quick short cut and worth the effort. There were 2 adults, 1 teenager and 1 child in our group and the cottage was of a decent size. The conservatory was particularly useful for boots, coats and backpacks. The clothes airer was helpful as anything damp could be hung up and it warmed up nicely in there to dry things off. The bedrooms were on the small side but fine and we all found the beds comfortable.
  : As with other reviewers, the property did have a strong smell of damp in the bedrooms which wasn't very nice. This is obviously a long term problem which will need to be resolved by the owners at some point. We had trouble getting the TV to work but Sykes Cottages quickly sent a maintenance chap round who sorted it out for us. Also as per other comments, the property is a little tired especially the kitchen, but ultimately you get what you pay for and all in all we felt it was value for money.
