Beechside
Description
Beautifully converted in the former bobbin mill, on the banks of Stock Ghyll Waterfalls, Beechside is a deceptively spacious property that has been finished to a very high standard to create a high quality and luxurious retreat in one of the Lake District's most popular locations.
Relax on the riverside balcony with the noise of the cascading river in the background, enjoy an evening drink on the veranda as you watch the sunset over the Lakeland Fells. Access via stairs from the car park, the accommodation is over two levels. The bright and welcoming lounge, with its high vaulted ceiling is a great place to relax and socialise and is complemented by a unique mezzanine level reading room complete with the owners' very own Lakeland Library to help you plan your next walk or to learn more about the rich history or literary heritage the area has to offer.
The bustling town centre offers a great selection of local bars, restaurants and cafes along with a great range of local shops, many selling local produce.
Returning to Beechside you will find a well-appointed kitchen that is the perfect place to prepare everything from a great Lakeland breakfast to a fantastic dinner to share with family or friends. Situated in the heart of the Lake District there are a myriad of walks from the door, follow in the footsteps of William Wordsworth and enjoy an afternoon stroll to Grasmere, the more adventurous might head out onto Fairfield Horseshoe a favourite of many a Lakeland Fell walker and if you believe a little effort deserves a reward why not watch the sunset from the top of the nearby Wansfell! Adventure awaits at Beechside.

What guests are saying
We’ve stayed at Beechside a few times now.
Such a lovely location. The property is close to the amenities. We would also like to thank the new owners for investing in upgrades/updates which are greatly appreciated I’m sure by everyone who has visited. Already booked for next year
Beechside was great.
The location is an easy walk into central Ambleside whilst being quiet other than the calming sound of Stock Ghyll running hyust outside. Three bathrooms with showers (one with bath) for three bedrooms was a luxury and they were some of the best showers we have had in the Lake District. The bedrooms were all a good size and there was plenty of living space for 4 of us (2 parents and two grown children). Beachside will be on our list for next time.
Excellent property, light, spacious, well equipped and spotlessly clean.
The best self catering accommodation we have enjoyed in the 30 years of holidaying in the lake district.
