Location

Such a peaceful yet central location within Ambleside village makes Wainwright Cottage a winner for for all styles of holiday. The cottage is found in a quiet backwater, just a stone's throw from Ambleside's bustling centre and a short walk from the shores of Lake Windermere.

Ambleside is a popular Lakeland village at the north end of Lake Windermere, surrounded by dramatic mountains and fells yet tastefully developed and cosmopolitan in its atmosphere. Traditional Lakeland cottages and historic buildings share Ambleside's attractive winding streets with sophisticated shops, excellent cafes, expert outdoor centres and acclaimed Lake District restaurants. By night, you'll find no end of opportunities to sample the local Lake District ale, treat yourselves to a romantic meal or even enjoy a film at one of Ambleside's two high quality cinema venues.

Just outside the village at Waterhead Pier, Windermere Lake Cruises depart regularly providing your car-free route to Bowness and Lakeside! These 'steamers' are a wonderful way to explore, admiring the scenery from the water. A wide range of boating activities are available on Lake Windermere.

For exploring the wider Lake District, Ambleside is perfectly placed at the heart of the Lakes. You'll make easy journeys to the popular villages of Bowness, Windermere, Grasmere, Hawkshead and Coniston, as well as being only short drive from scenic areas such as the Langdale Valley. Ambleside is a great base for outdoor enthusiasts!
