    “We really enjoyed our stay at The Old Laundry.”

    It is compact, well-appointed, and has all the amenities and fittings for the two of us and our two small/medium-sized dogs. The temperature dropped this week, and the gas fire was a blessing. We had a query about how to get this going and Fen responded super quick. Parking was straightforward. The location was perfect and was a short walk into Ambleside. And of course, great access to the Langdales, Ullswater, Coniston and Keswick.

The property

The Old Laundry is an outstanding, ground floor, semi-detached courtyard cottage in the desirable hamlet of Clappersgate, just one mile from Ambleside in the heart of the Lakes and can sleep four people.

There are two double bedrooms with en-suite shower rooms and an open plan living area with kitchen, breakfast bar and sitting area with a gas fire.

Outside there is off road parking for one car and a shared, lawned garden with furniture located across the main road.

The Old Laundry is a wonderful holiday base.

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.

Note: No infants allowed.
