    “Unfortunately there was a nasty smell from the guest bedroom en-suite,we reported it to lake lovers on two separate occasions but the maintenance team were not able to resolve the issue.”

    It meant our guests were not able to use the bathroom meaning we had to share the one bedroom. It was a shame as it was my wife’s 60th birthday whilst there

The property

Windermere Suite offers high quality accommodation in delightful hillside surroundings with fine views to Lake Windermere.

Situated on the outskirts of Ambleside this delightful second floor apartment gives endless opportunities for walking without any need to use the car.

Loughrigg, Fairfield and Wansfell are there to be explored whilst more level walks encompass Under Loughrigg and Rydal - a delight in any season. Reached by a long drive, Loughrigg Brow is a magnificent 19th century Grade II listed building - originally the vicarage - and is set in ten acres of beautiful hillside grounds with security gates at the main entrance.

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.
