Mr Evans November 2021

“We had a great holiday at this property.”

We have had many holiday rentals in the UK but this one is up there at the top. It was spotless and had everything you need for a week away. We loved the quiet area it was in but it was still only around 12 minutes from the centre of Ambleside. The views from the upstairs windows were fabulous. If we stay in Ambleside again we would definitely be back.

it's a lovely cottage in a quiet location elevated over Ambleside. The weather was excellent all week which enabled us to fully enjoy many walks available from the door. I brought my bicycle and was able to get out to enjoy the local roads and hills.

“A really comfortable and clean property with many little ‘extras’ to make us feel welcome and made our stay so enjoyable.”

There are great facilities for a baby. It is so lovely having a few toiletries, cleaning and washing products available. We enjoyed the books and games; the downstairs toilet and shower room a real bonus, as was the parking.

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.
