The family-run Ambleside Townhouse is situated in Ambleside, 800 metres from Lake Windermere. It offers en suite rooms and a full English breakfast in the morning.

Each stylish room has fresh light décor.

Ambleside Townhouse is a lovely accommodation. The staff was attentive, friendly and helpful. We had a spacious, quiet room with comfy beds and a nice view. Especially in the evenings, we were able to enjoy the sunset. The breakfast was delicious, especially the pancakes and sourdough bread with scrambled eggs and salmon. We enjoyed fantastic hikes in the area.

Great authentic little cottage, has everything you need for short stay. Great location to go hiking, but also not far from village centre. Very comfortable bed! The only watchout is a steep ladder, but it was clearly communicated and wasn't a problem at all for us. Would stay here again.

Within 10 km of World of Beatrix Potter and 8.7 km of Lake Windermere, Grayling Cottage offers free WiFi and a terrace. This apartment provides accommodation with a patio.

This apartment is fitted with 1 bedroom, a kitchen with a fridge and an oven, a flat-screen TV, a seating area and 1 bathroom equipped with a shower. Towels and bed linen are featured in the apartment.

The cottage is absolutely lovely. It has a great kitchen with everything you need to be self catering. The living room has a comfortable space in which to relax. The bed was very comfortable with a skylight cover which was great! It enables you to block out the light when the sun rises at 4:30 in the morning. The bathroom is amazing with a big shower. There was a very effective fan in the cottage which was really wonderful since we had pretty warm days and it helped to cool down the space. The entire cottage has been artfully decorated and was spotlessly clean. There is interesting lighting throughout the space. There is a small outer area with a table that is fenced in if you had a dog. The cottage is off the Main Street so it was very quiet but just minutes from the main part of town so easy walking to trailheads, shopping and restaurants. There is a small grocery store within a few minutes walk. There was parking available within a reasonable distance of the cottage. The owners were very responsive to our questions.

    We had a really enjoyable stay this New Year at Ferndale Lodge. We had a dog friendly room; it was separate from the main house and had its own entrance …perfect for pet owners. The room was compact, clean, and had everything you would need . The bed was really comfortable and the bathroom was absolutely fine. Our stay was fantastic value, and a wonderful location too.
