Bowfell, Ambleside
Arrival day: Friday | Sleeps: 4
In one of the Lake District's most coveted lake shore locations, Bowfell is a luxurious 2 bedroom self-catering apartment within the prestigious Pullwood Bay gentleman's residence. Dating back to 1891, this imposing property is surrounded by 50 acres of grounds and formal gardens, along more than half a mile of private lake shore.
Offering self-catering accommodation for up to 4 people, Bowfell is designed with no expense spared for a taste of Lakeland high life! Walnut floors, chic and sumptuous furnishings, state-of-the-art sound system and atmospheric mood lighting. What a place to relax and unwind...only 2 miles from vibrant Ambleside and 1 mile from the Drunken Duck Inn (one of the Lake District's most highly acclaimed pub restaurants). Bowfell achieved the Enjoy England Gold Award 2009/10 for exceptional quality of accommodation and customer service.
Ambleside is a friendly and vibrant Lakeland village, renowned as a hotspot for shopping, picking up local produce, chatting about fell-walking and sampling a few local ales in the many excellent pubs. There are numerous restaurants to choose from, several on the lake shore, as well as a the famously good Zefferelis pizzeria/jazz bar/cimema. If a 'steamer' lake cruise takes your fancy, you need only stroll a few minutes out of the centre to Waterhead Pier. For exploring further afield in the Lakes, you'll find yourself within easy reach of the main driven routes through the highlights of the Lake District.
