    The property was cosy, clean and well equipped. It's in good location, next to shops and restaurants and 20 mins walk to the lake. Local guides, books and board games are a great addition.

    Le logement est bien situé, proche de tous commerces, il est très bien équipé et très bien décoré. L'accès à Netflix est un point positif pour se reposer le soir dans le canapé après une bonne journée de randonnée. La cuisine est superbe.

Neighbourhood information

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.
