When stomachs start to rumble, move through to discover the well-equipped kitchen tucked away at the rear, housing all of the essential amenities required to rustle up hearty meals, along with a handy washer/dryer to keep your holiday attire fresh and clean!

Uncork a bottle of wine and gather together at the dining table to indulge in a delicious meal, and if you're not ready for the fun to end, venture outdoors to soak up the last of the evening sunshine with a seat on the patio.

When sleep calls, you'll find two well-presented bedrooms on the first floor, comprising of a double and a twin, whilst a double bedroom is tucked away on the second floor, with a family bathroom set across the way.

Ambleside is home to several acclaimed Lake District restaurants, with the Glass House making for a memorable evening out.

Enjoy a tranquil stroll through the nearby woodland to discover the glistening waters of Stock Ghyll Force, an im-pressive 70-ft waterfall, or enjoy an evening at the cinema at Zeffirellis or the interesting Fellinis, a studio cinema with a delicious vegetarian restaurant.

Waterhead Pier, the departure point for Windermere Lake Cruises, is easily accessible, with regular departures throughout the day traveling the full length of the lake, with stops at Bowness and Lakeside.

Enjoying a rural position within the Lake District National Park, you'll find a network of walking, cycling and hiking routes leading from your doorstep; climb to the summits of Helvellyn or Scafell Pike or follow the two-wheel trails through the trees of Grizedale.

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.
