Great house with fantastic views in a really quiet location away from the busier areas nearby. Everything you need is still easily accessible with fantastic surrounding walks in all directions to burn off the lovely High Grassings breakfast options.
United KingdomEverything inside and out and the area . Also value for money
United KingdomWhat didn't we like. From the staff, to the condition of the rooms and the overall property, the food! I could not recommend this property anymore. I am new to the Lakes and wasn't sure if the location of the property was ideal but after realising we took a wrong turning, we realised the location of this property could not have been any better! Ambelside town centre is maybe a 10 min drive and popular walks/sights are within close proximity. The hosts Dave and Carey treat you like you are the only people there. They will go above and beyond to make sure your stay is comfortable. They recommended a number of walks/routes for us which we followed and it made the trip that much more amazing. They gave us various options for breakfast the next morning and being vegetarian didn't have a concern at all with what was available. The whole place was clean and they are very covid conscious. Deffo rebooking next year!
United KingdomBreakfast and view very good ,hosts Dave and his wife lovely people would recommend a visit. Are only problem was the weather lots of rain, ! But you that’s the weather for you !

United KingdomVery nice stay in the Lake District. The host, David and Kerry were very helpful and friendly. We felt right at home. The room is very nicely appointed and clean, overlooking the hills. Highly recommended.
SingaporeWe had bed and breakfast, but Dave made us a packed lunch instead of breakfast - very helpful and friendly owners
United KingdomExcellent location. A luxurious place which is immaculately kept. Superb scenery. A lovely warm and friendly welcome. . A bottle of proseco on arrival which we enjoyed in the lovely seating area whilst enthusiastically dear spotting wow.. Had a very comfortable quiet night sleep . Lovely cooked breakfast and healthy options too.
United KingdomWhen we got there we upgraded to the suite which was absolutely beautiful. Clean comfortable and welcomed with a bottle of fizz off the friendly hosts Dave and Carrie felt like we had known them for years. Tasty breakfast couldn't have asked for anything more.

Host Info
HEALTH & SAFETY . HIGH GRASSINGS Is COVID 19 COMPLIANT - Risk Assessment ( GradIosh) In Place. To protect guests and staff. The minute you arrive you can relax. Located off road with magnificent views over towards Esthwaite Water near Hawkshead and the mountains over Ambleside and Troutbeck. Fantastic location close to all main amenities. Set in own grounds with plenty of outdoor areas to sit and take in the beauty of The Lake District . Take a stroll down to the Drunken Duck in for a drink or meal or a longer walk to the Outgate Inn which also serves good food . Drive down to Hawkshead village ( 1.5 miles ) plenty of eateries and cosy shops . Tarn Hows is located 8 minutes away by car - this beauty spot was developed by Beatrix Potter - you will be hard pressed to find a more beautiful location . There is a walk around the Tarn with views towards Old Man of Coniston, Wetherlam and The Langdale Pikes.
Being able to live and work in the heart of the Lake District is fantastic and can never see myself selling High Grassings - it’s our Shangri La.
Walks straight from the door - over the fells to Tarn Hows or for those interested I can advise on longer walks taking in mountain climbs or low level walks. Or maybe stroll down to the village of Hawkshead where there are 4 inn's and other eateries, shops and post office. Also within easy walking distance is the Drunken Duck Inn offering good food and even has its own micro brewery . Take the car 4 miles and visit Coniston Water , take a cruise or simply take in the views . If you want to visit Keswick in the North Lakes it’s only 40 mins away by car - you can stop off in Grasmere cozy village well know for Original Gingerbread shop., So much to see and do all within easy reach being located at High Grassings.
