It was lovely to return to this property and it did not disappoint. As ever the staff are so welcoming and the breakfasts are superb. It feels like a luxurious home from home. Walks are all on the doorstep and once there you don't need the car. We will definitely be back and hoping to try the ice cream stall and beauty treatments now on offer!

This house was so beautiful! You could tell the owners loved it and what they do! There was love and care put into their treatment of us during our stay! They even let us spoil their dogs. Paul and
Rachel are wonderful hosts, who open their immaculately clean, beautifully appointed, very comfy home.

Foxghyll is just idyllic, set on a quiet and beautiful Lakeland road, just minutes walk out of Ambleside. You have all of the benefits of being in the countryside and the convenience of being able to walk in to town for dinner etc. Hosts were super friendly, very accommodating with nothing being too much trouble. They also offer electric car charging at a competitive rate, which is super convenient. Definitely will go back again.

Wohlfühlaufenthalt im Foxghyll Country House
Unser Aufenthalt im Foxghyll Country House war wunderbar. Wir hatten den wunderschönen, sehr liebevoll eingerichteten 4 Poster Room mit Blick auf den herrlichen, gepflegten Garten. Das moderne Bad und das großzügige Zimmer waren sehr sauber. Beim Frühstück blieben keine Wünsche offen. Paul und Rachel waren sehr herzlich und zuvorkommend und haben uns tolle Tipps für Wanderungen gegeben. Parkplatz direkt vor dem Haus. 15 bis 20 Minuten zu Fuß nach Ambleside. Wir kommen liebend gerne wieder.
