Location
Archie's nestles in a peaceful yet very handy spot just 2 minutes stroll from the heart of the village of Ambleside.
A holiday cottage in Ambleside provides an excellent starting point for a varied Lake District holiday.
Easily accessible via the A591 on the northern shores of Lake Windermere, Ambleside is a contemporary, characterful Lakeland village with a spectacular backdrop of Lake District fells.
The location is ideal for walking in the Lake District, with many renowned routes beginning in and around the village.
But Ambleside is also a popular choice for a relaxed, slow-paced holiday.
Contemporary shops, leisurely lake cruises, acclaimed Lake District restaurants and cosy traditional pubs make the village centre a delight at any time of year.
For evening entertainment, you'll find plenty to suit every taste.
Try the renowned Glass House restaurant, in a superbly converted saw mill, for a special evening out.
Or, take your pick from the two quirky cinemas; Zeffirelli's cinema includes a great pizzeria and live jazz bar.
Fellini's has an excellent vegetarian restaurant and shows films in a relaxed studio cinema environment.
You'll also find a wide range of pubs, serving hearty food and real Lakeland ale - notable for its lake shore setting is the Wateredge Inn.
Windermere Lake Cruises depart from Waterhead Pier, just outside Ambleside village centre.
The elegant 'steamers' offer regular trips to Bowness and Lakeside - a great way to explore without driving.
Evening cruises are also available, sometimes with buffet meals and live music.
Windermere Golf Club is very close by and well worth a visit.
