    “Heatherly is great.”

    It's in a fantastic location for access to everything in Ambleside. The cottage itself is also pretty perfect. The bathroom for each bedroom is a big plus. The kitchen is well equipt. The washing machine and tumble dryer is also great for wet walks, as is the heating which makes the house very cosy. TVs in each room and a smart tv in the lounge allows access to Netflix etc. The only vaguely difficult aspect is the parking, which relies on two permits for the Rydal Rd car park, rather than on ...

    It's in a fantastic location for access to everything in Ambleside. The cottage itself is also pretty perfect. The bathroom for each bedroom is a big plus. The kitchen is well equipt. The washing machine and tumble dryer is also great for wet walks, as is the heating which makes the house very cosy. TVs in each room and a smart tv in the lounge allows access to Netflix etc. The only vaguely difficult aspect is the parking, which relies on two permits for the Rydal Rd car park, rather than on street outside the cottage. Which can be tricky if you've got a larger party with 3 cars and unfortunately there's no direct access from Millans Park to the car park. But it is only a 5 minute walk and the parking is a minor inconvenience against the property's plus points. You can also use a parking disc for short stays on Milllans Park. No hesitation in recommending Heatherley for a stay in Ambleside.

About the location

AMBLESIDE

Grasmere 4.4 miles; Windermere 4.7 miles; Keswick 16.7 miles.

Lying at the northern tip of Lake Windermere, England’s largest lake, Ambleside makes a superb base for touring the central Lakes, with Grasmere and the Langdale Valley just a short drive away. There is plenty to do here - cruises, boat trips and watersports on Lake Windermere itself and numerous shops, restaurants and pubs in the village to suit all tastes. On the lakeside at Waterhead, the parkland offers lovely views down the lake and a short stretch of beach, whilst a walk in the other direction, following Stock Ghyll through woodland, will bring you to the entrancing waterfall of Stock Ghyll Force. Along with the Lake and the great walking on offer, Ambleside is also famous for its annual rushbearing ceremony and the diminutive 17th century “Bridge House” - one of the most photographed buildings in the Lake District and now the National Trust Information Centre.
