“Spring Cottage is a really lovely ‘escape’ with fantastic views of the falls.”

The window looking out onto the waterfall was a particularly nice feature of the property.

The window looking out onto the waterfall was a particularly nice feature of the property. The only downside, which is not a criticism of Sykes, was that someone had let their dog foul right at the bottom of the steps leading to the front door and we have a baby and toddler so that wasn’t pleasant. Also, the field garden at the back was great and we would have made more use of it but again we saw people walking their dogs so we were a bit wary of the kids standing on something.

The property

This stylish cottage-style apartment, set over two upper floors, enjoys a peaceful setting within Ambleside's prestigious Falls development, overlooking Stockghyll Falls from the fabulous upper floor living space. The accommodation has a wonderfully calming atmosphere, thanks to soothing natural colours, modern simplicity and an abundance of Lakeland light. You'll find ample space for sociable occasions; the dining area is pleasantly set apart from the lounge area. With only a 5 minute stroll to the centre of Ambleside village, this is an ideal base for those who wish to explore on foot and walk home after an evening out. == Accommodation in detail Private parking for 2 cars, including undercover parking. Steps lead to the first floor entrance hall, with space for your walking gear. The fresh feeling bedrooms are on this first level (1 double and 1 twin) as is the luxurious house bathroom with shower over bath. Upstairs to the light and airy open plan living space, enjoying a delightful outlook from this upper floor. The sitting and dining areas have pretty, leafy, outlooks towards Stockghyll Falls.

About the location

AMBLESIDE

Windermere 4 miles; Grasmere 4 mile; Keswick 15 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.
