We let Saturday to Saturday thought the year. Occasionally we can let short breaks in the winter.

There are three bedrooms, one with kingsize bed, one with double and one with two singles. Towels are provided.

High Gale is a private road and we own the area of road just outside our cottage. There's room for one car of up to 4.85 meters in length. For safety and access reasons, it's important not to overhang the marked space. For bigger vehicles or second cars, the nearest car park is 1/4 mile away and weekly tickets costs just over £30 at the time of writing - more info on southlakeland.gov.uk. Space is tight on High Gale and we do ask that guests are sensitive to the needs and concerns of our neighbours.

The separate kitchen is fitted and well equipped. There is a gas cooker, a small microwave, fridge, dishwasher, electric kettle and toaster.

The cottage has a Wifi network the signal is normally good on all floors. We are connected through www.opendns.com. Connection details are in the house notes at the cottage. Wifi connections are also available at a number of cafés in Ambleside.

There is a 32” television in the sitting room. This has Freeview Play catchup apps but you will need to bring your own account login details to use them - and remember to logout again at the end of your stay. There's also a DVD/Blu-ray player.

Holly Howe is dog friendly. We ourselves have two golden retrievers and we are happy for guests to bring one or two well behaved dogs with them on their holiday. There are, of course, conditions and we ask as a courtesy to all that they are strictly observed.
