Town: Lying at the northern tip of Lake Windermere, England’s largest lake, Ambleside 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 numerous shops, restaurants and pubs in the village to suit all tastes. On the lakeside at Waterhead, the parkland offers lovely views down the lake and a short stretch of beach, whilst 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.

Great area, right in the middle of Ambleside. Nice pubs and restaurants in the area. Only problem was key locker was tricky to use and no extractor fan. But overall amazing stay
It is a tiny little place with real character. I loved the beams in the ceilings. The location is perfect - a minute or so to walk to the bus stops and the shops but in a quiet courtyard and if you were walking past on the lane you wouldn't know the cottage was there. It is perfect for one or for a couple. A really sweet little place.
The property is very central for Ambleside. It doesnt really have outside space and while described as 'romantic' could be said to be 'pokey' The facilities are functional although cooking anything seemed to take a long time, microwave heating is the best option, alrhough there is plenty of eateries in town.The bedroom is filled with the bed which could make the use of the bathroom in the dark, dangerous. There is plenty of cupboard space for luggage. The shower was excellent (often a weak point in other holiday homes) Lovely stay, in fantastic part of the country.
One bedroom: 1 x first floor double. Shower room with basin and WC. Open plan living area with kitchen, dining and sitting area.
