    This was our 2nd stay at the cottage and once again we really enjoyed it. The cottage is very comfortable, well appointed with all the mod-cons required and ideally located within Ambleside. The bedrooms are a decent size with very comfortable beds.

Neighborhood info

Ambleside is a great starting point for exploring the central Lake District, with Grasmere and the Langdale Valley just a few minutes' drive away. Windermere, Lake Windermere and the village itself have a lot to offer visitors of all ages and interests, with a wide variety of activities to choose from. You can enjoy beautiful views of the lake from the parkland at Waterhead, while a walk in the opposite direction, following Stock Ghyll through woodland, will bring you to the breathtaking waterfall of Stock Ghyll Force. Alternatively 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.
