About this property

Enjoy stunning fell views from this grand apartment.

Enjoy stunning fell views from this grand apartment. It’s less than 200m from Lake Windermere, and a short walk from pubs and restaurants in Waterhead and Ambleside. There’s many beautiful fell and lakeside walks on your doorstep.. All on the first floor.
Living/dining room: With gas coal-effect fire, 32" Freeview TV with Amazon TV fire stick and DVD player.
Kitchen: Galley-style with electric oven, gas hob, microwave, fridge, freezer, dishwasher and washing machine.
Bedroom 1: With kingsize bed and en-suite with shower cubicle and toilet.
Bedroom 2: With zip and link twin beds (can be a super kingsize on request).
Bathroom: With shower over bath, step to toilet and heated towel rail.. Gas central heating, gas, electricity, bed linen, towels and Wi-Fi included.. 3-acre natural grounds (shared with other properties on-site). Private parking for 1 car; communal visitor spaces available. No smoking.. Escape to Crag View for its beautiful views of the Coniston and Loughrigg fells. The grand west-facing windows make it the perfect place to sit by the fire and enjoy the sunset. The kitchen overlooks the woodland gardens, where deer visit daily, and the bedroom and living room window seats even have a glimpse of Lake Windermere.
Perched in an elevated position, Crag View is a first-floor apartment in a stunning Victorian manor house, with many of its original features still intact. The property is set in 3-acre grounds of mature communal gardens and woodland. There is a dedicated off-street parking space and ample spaces for other cars. Crag View is the perfect Lake District getaway for a couple or a family.
Within a short walk is Lake Windermere, less than 200m, accessed via Borrans Park, a popular spot for a picnic. Make sure to visit the 1st century AD remains of Galava Roman fort just next door. For the ramblers in your family, many of the fells can be accessed on foot from your front door, including Todd Crag with iconic views down Lake Windermere.
On your doorstep you have the Waterhead pier – a perfect photo moment. Here you can catch one of the lake cruises, or grab a bite to eat or a coffee from one of the surrounding cafés. Head into Ambleside itself, a short and easy 10-minute stroll. There are many shops, traditional Lakeland pubs, restaurants and two cinemas. The Michelin-starred The Old Stamp House restaurant is a special visit; named the best restaurant in the world by Trip Advisor in 2021.
Public transport is readily available if you want to leave the car. Hop onto one of the open top buses and see more of the surrounding countryside. Pubs and restaurants ¼ mile, shops ¾ mile, beach 23½ miles.
Free WiFi

Quiet and ideally located flat
Nicely furnished and ideally located flat with nice views. Short walk to Ambleside, very close to bus station where you can take bus rides to nearly all destinations in the Lake District. Flat has everything you need and is situated on the second floor of a nice property located in a beautiful large garden. Highly recommended!

Very happy with the accommodation overall.
Very happy with the accommodation overall. A very warm and comfortable apartment, which was well equipped. The only thing which let it down were several cobwebs in the main bedroom above the bed and in the en suite shower room. The height of the ceiling could be a problem in the bedroom but not in the shower room. Having said this, we would certainly go again and can highly recommend.

We were very happy with the flat but want to point out that according to a man who is the Chair of the Residents Committee Crag View only has one parking space and not the two you claim. Also what looks like a new sign for Crag View is in the wrong place according to this man who was very cross with us for parking in the wrong place.

We loved our stay at Crag View. A very well equipped and comfotable flat with lovely views. It's in a great location and we hope to come back one day! Would have valued more than 3 dishwasher tablets though - doesn't go far over a week. Review independently collected and verified by Reevoo
