    “This property is brilliantly located and the parking space was a real bonus.”

    However we felt the property in general requires some upgrade compared to other properties we have stayed in.

The property

Elegance and light are the keywords for this most spacious traditional Lakeland stone built cottage. The recently completed stunning refurbishment has produced arguably one of the very best terraced cottages and only a minute from the town centre. Laid out over three floors it is large enough for families but cosy enough for a couple. The house is made for relaxation - especially the fabulous house-bathroom with roll-top slipper bath and drench shower. The rear orchard garden provides security for a pet or children and covered storage for bicycles - perfect for secluded dining or relaxing. Unrestricted parking may be possible outside the front of the property, but is not guaranteed. A visitor's parking permit is provided for the surrounding streets. There are wonderful views of Loughrigg and Wansfell from this property. This is a very popular property which persuades visitors to return. Accommodation in detail The Lounge leads off the hall. Sumptuous sofas on a large rug face the fabulous woodburning stove. The oak bay window seat is a lovely place to relax in the afternoon sun. The Dining Room with fabulous oak floor leads into the kitchen. Granite work tops, colour coded fridge and dish washer are amongst the attributes. The mezzanine first floor offers a fully equipped utility room. The First floor has master bedroom with king size bed and fully tiled luxury en-suite shower. The house bathroom is fully tiled with slipper bath, large shower with drench rose. On the second floor there are two further bedrooms. The front room has a king size bed with views of Loughrigg. The rear room has a single bed with views over Wansfell Pike. == Location Ambleside is one of the most sophisticated villages you could choose for a Lake District self-catering holiday, full of tasty cafes, acclaimed restaurants, handy delicatessens, traditional Lakeland pubs and even a cinema. But the landscapes which engulf this Lakeland village are quite breathtaking, reminding you every minute that you're at the heart of Lake District walking territory. At nearby Waterhead Pier (only a short stroll away) you'll arrive at the shore of Lake Windermere. Windermere Lake Cruises ferry passengers to Bowness and Lakeside, presenting a unique opportunity to ditch your car at your holiday cottage in Ambleside and explore! From Ambleside, the A591 leads swiftly to Bowness and Windermere village, or north to Rydal Water, Grasmere and beyond. You couldn't be better placed for a family or group self-catering break in the Lakes.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £200.

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.
