Location
Pullwood Bay sits on the edge of Lake Windermere, England's largest lake, surrounded by wonderful walking territory and only two miles from the vibrant village centre of Ambleside.
A short stroll away is one of the most famous Lake District country pubs, the Drunken Duck Inn & Restaurant at Outgate. This enviable local serves real Lake District ale and an excellent daytime and evening menu.
Ambleside village is your stop-off for stocking up the kitchen; you'll find sophisticated shopping and a wide range of local produce on offer, as well as a mouthwatering selection of bakeries, cafes and eateries.
Ambleside has a wide range of evening entertainment to suit all ages. Cosy traditional pubs, acclaimed Lake District restaurants and the choice of two interesting cinemas. Zefirellis Cinema, Pizzeria and Jazz Bar provides a great evening out for families.
Windermere Lake Cruises depart just outside Ambleside village centre at Waterhead Pier, so as well as admiring the lake from the grounds of your lake shore self-catering property, you can take to the water too!
Pullwood Bay is a great place to start if you're planning to explore the whole Lake District. Its location is right at the heart of the Lakes. Hawkshead and the home of Beatrix Potter are very close by, as are such scenic areas as the Langdale Valley and Coniston.
