Just got back from a week in Brassenthwaite and had another fantastic stay in these lovely apartments (have stayed in serveral and have never been disappointed). They are always extremely clean and the location is ideal for Ambleside yet far enough out for peace and quiet. Each apartment has its own allocated parking space - which is a great advantage...

Another return visit for us and yet again we were not to be disappointed. Kirkstone Foot has so many positives that perfectly suit the requirements we deem essential to making our trips to the Lake District something to look forward to; -such as comfort, privacy, convenience to the village centre, ample parking and with Ambleside so centrally placed the ideal...

As we are just about to leave for out third stay at Kirkstone Foot this year (!), we thought it time to write another review (a dozen-ish stays over the past few years and only one review seemed mean). We have stayed at KF regularly since our first review in 2010 in a number of different apartments. All are individually... More

We've stayed here several times over the years, not found anything better in Ambleside without paying a King's ransom The apartments, both in the Coach House and the Manor House, are unfailingly warm and well equipped. Comfortable beds, good chairs to slouch in after a day on the fells and everything needed in the kitchen. Onsite parking is vital in... More

Just returned from the Kirkstone Foot Apartments today, this was our 3rd visit and it's still as good as ever. I can't coment on the other apartments as I have only stayed in Mardale but if the rest are anything like this one I don't think you could find anything to complain about. Mardale is modern, clean, well situated only... More

The ideal location to explore the lakes, we parked our car for a week in our own space which is provided, and used the local bus network, could not fault it. It takes about Ten minutes to walk down to Ambleside town, quite a steep walk back but only for about 200 mtrs.the apartments are of good quality and there... More

We have stayed here in a variety of the rentals over many years, never had a bad experience and the quality of some is exceptional. Perfect for a short stroll into Ambleside for dinner. Would never stay anywhere else in Ambleside, Kirkstone Foot is simply perfect for us.
