About this property

COBBLESTONE COTTAGE, romantic, character holiday cottage in Ambleside

Amenities: Gas central heating. Electric combination oven/microwave, Halogen hob, fridge/freezer, washer/dryer, dishwasher, WiFi. Permit parking for nearby SLDC car parks. Private patio with furniture. Sorry, no pets. Sorry, no smoking. Shop and pub are a few minutes stroll. Note: This property is designed for adults only (maximum of 2). It is not suitable for children or babies due to the property's layout and amenities. Please note due to the compact nature of the property (limited space between bed and staircase), this property may not be suitable for those less able who require more space to manoeuvre.

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.

Lovely, ideal spot

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

A lovely little character cottage

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.
