The property

Dove Cottage is a charming, three-storey property based near the delightful town of Ambleside in Cumbria.

This property boasts ground-floor living, EV charging, Smart TVs, and countryside views - with roadside parking for two cars available, this holiday abode is well-suited for a family getaway or a small group looking to enjoy the Lake District.

Walk into the first-floor kitchen/diner area, where you can cook up a storm using the electric oven, induction hob, microwave, and fridge.

In the first-floor sitting area, sink into a sofa or an armchair with a film on the Smart TV.

Head outside to the garden to take in the beaming sun whilst sipping a drink.

When the sun slips away in the evening, fall into a second-floor super-king-size (zip/link) or ground-floor king-size bed to settle down for the night, both equipped with Smart TVs.

There is a ground-floor bathroom and second-floor shower room to get ready in the morning before plenty of fun activities.

Close-by, there are shops for essentials, as well as ample pubs for a little drink, such as the Golden Rule - just a short distance from your property.

In Ambleside, be sure to go to the glorious Loughrigg Fell for some challenging walks or possibly a dip in the glistening lake.

Stock Ghyll Force also has some magnificent waterfall views to see, whilst Go Ape Grizedale allows the kids to blow off steam by swinging from tree to tree.

In Windermere, go for a sail on Britain’s largest lake or even some scuba diving in Lake Windermere.

There is the Windemere Jetty Museum for some boat trips, or admire the gorgeous countryside on a Lakeland Pony Trek, making a new best friend.

Slightly further afield, the beauty of Keswick should catch your eye.

The kids will love meeting a new furry friend at Alpacaly Ever After.

Have a swim or go paddleboarding in the scenic lake that is Derwentwater, or go for a family hike to see some nature on the Catbells Lakeland Walk.

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 with its numerous shops 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 the lakeside at Waterhead with parkland offering lovely views down the lake and a short stretch of beach. 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. Ambleside has plenty of restaurants and pubs to suit all tastes from great fish & chips to its two Michelin Star restaurants and all tastes in between are catered for.
