    “A beautiful place to stay, looking over Ambleside with the most stunning panoramic views.”

    Close to everything, extremely clean, nicely furnished and well-appointed, we felt we were living in luxury! We liked the clearly-marked recycling bins (which feel like a must for self-catering these days). As always we much appreciated the welcome pack waiting for us but also as always found ourselves buying a bit more toilet paper on the second-last day - it would be lovely to have just a couple of replacement rolls as standard. A maintenance note: a hall light and an upstairs bathroom light ...

    Close to everything, extremely clean, nicely furnished and well-appointed, we felt we were living in luxury! We liked the clearly-marked recycling bins (which feel like a must for self-catering these days). As always we much appreciated the welcome pack waiting for us but also as always found ourselves buying a bit more toilet paper on the second-last day - it would be lovely to have just a couple of replacement rolls as standard. A maintenance note: a hall light and an upstairs bathroom light began to flicker and buzz during the week. We could neither find replacement bulbs or take the lighshades off to fix this so ended up draping things over them. Overall this was a glorious place to return to after walking or just to be in, taking in the ever-changing sky-scape and watching the life of the town below.

About the location

AMBLESIDE

Grasmere 4.4 miles; Windermere 4.7 miles; Keswick 16.7 miles.

Lying at the northern tip of Lake Windermere, England’s largest lake, Ambleside makes a superb base for touring the central Lakes, with Grasmere and the Langdale Valley just a short drive away. There is plenty to do here - cruises, boat trips and watersports on Lake Windermere itself and numerous shops, restaurants, and pubs in the village to suit all tastes, including the popular eateries of Misto, Sheila's Cottage, and The Lily Bar. On the lakeside at Waterhead, the parkland offers lovely views down the lake and a short stretch of beach, whilst a walk in the other direction, following Stock Ghyll through woodland, will bring you to the entrancing waterfall of Stock Ghyll Force. Along with the Lake and the great walking on offer, Ambleside is also famous for its annual rushbearing ceremony and the diminutive 17th century “Bridge House” - one of the most photographed buildings in the Lake District and now the National Trust Information Centre.
