Location
Ambleside village is located on the northern shores of Lake Windermere, set against a stunning backdrop of Lakeland fells. It's undoubtedly one of the most popular destinations for a romantic break in the Lake District; the village centre enjoys a number of acclaimed Lake District restaurants, and romantic cruises on Lake Windermere depart almost on your doorstep. The village centre is steeped with history, scattered with pretty traditional Lakeland stone cottages, but also stuffed with contemporary shops, lazy cafes and tempting delicatessens - try 'Lucy's of Ambleside' as an indulgent place to stock up the kitchen or pick up a picnic.

For an evening out, there are lots of options. Try a theatre dinner at Zeffirellis Cinema, Pizzeria and Jazz Bar, or sample the famous 'Glass House' restaurant which is housed in a beautifully converted saw mill. There are also several good pub restaurants overlooking the lake. Walking and driving is scenic in every direction; the A591 which passes through Ambleside is widely known as one of the UK's most scenic roads. It leads south to Windermere and bustling Bowness, or north past idyllic Rydal Water to Grasmere - where you can visit the home of poet William Wordsworth.

Our tip for a romantic Lake District drive is to head up to the Kirkstone Pass - a dramatically scenic road between Lake Windermere and Ullswater. The drive is breathtaking, with ample photo opportunities and a pleasant place to stop and stroll at Brotherswater. Finish by heading to Troutbeck village to enjoy a fabulous meal at the Queen's Head.
