Pudding Cottage, Ambleside

Overview

Pudding Cottage is atmospherically set in the heart of Beatrix Potter’s Lake District with the lovely towns of Ambleside and Windermere within a few minutes’ drive. The cottage is tucked away up a farm road and nestles amongst a group of lakeland stone buildings that formed the original coach house and stables for the 1st Earl of Lonsdale in the late 18th Century.

A stunning lake view location, and a fabulously luxurious and contemporary finish, has previously earned Pudding Cottage the Cumbria Tourist Board Gold Award for Self-Catering Property of the Year. The landscaped communal gardens attract a wide range of wildlife and many a guest has been delighted to spy our resident Jemima Puddle-ducks waiting for breakfast at the back door or Peter Rabbit and friends hopping across the lawns! Inclusive leisure club membership for 5.

Location

This award-winning holiday home near Lake Windermere provides a fantastic base for a family holiday in the Lake District, or a sociable gathering, being ideally placed between Windermere village and Ambleside just off the A591.

The A591 is the main route into the heart of the Lakes, leading from Windermere on to Ambleside, Rydal Water, historic Grasmere, then branching off to scenic areas such as the Langdale Valley and Coniston.

The National Park Visitor Centre at Brockhole is a must for families, with fabulous grounds leading down to the lake shore and a wealth of activities for kids - check the website for event details.

Nearby Windermere is ideal for stocking up the kitchen; you'll find the Booths supermarket well-stocked with local produce and everyday essentials. The village also has a traditional butcher and several other local shops.

Ambleside is only a few minutes drive away; an attractive historic village with sophisticated shopping, tempting cafes and acclaimed Lake District restaurants such as The Glass House. There are also two good cinemas in Ambleside - perfect for a rainy day.

Windermere Lake Cruises depart from Waterhead Pier, just outside Ambleside, providing a car-free route to explore Bowness and Lakeside. No worries about parking!
