    “This is an amazing property.”

    Exceeded expectations. We were a family of 5 adults-who comfortably fitted into the property without being on top of each other. We had reservations regarding parking 3 cars. The property comes with one space. The other 2 cars parked without charge within the road of the property. Location was perfect. Lots of shops, restaurants and pubs easily walkable. Fantastic bus service which enabled us to not use the cars. Great walks from property. Would definitely return. Thank you so much.

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.
