3 Bed in Ambleside (oc-m44821)

Surrounded by fabulous fells and nestled a mile from the northern tip of Windermere, Ambleside delivers an authentic taste of Lakeland life. Famous for its grey slate buildings, the town is home to an enticing array of inns and eateries, while its independent stores offer a welcome change from the high street chains. Ambleside is an ideal base for walkers, with the Fairfield Horseshoe and Stock Ghyll Force on the doorstep. Wander to Waterhead Pier (1.5 miles) for hire boats and ferry rides to Brockhole, the Lake District National Park Visitor Centre. Alternatively, visit the National Trust’s Stagshaw Gardens for fine plant collections and splendid views across the water. History buffs should head to Ambleside’s Roman Fort (1 mile) on the Windermere shoreline – it’s one of three Roman sites in the area, the others being Hardknott (12.5 miles) and the bath house remains at Ravenglass (30 miles).

Tucked away in a quiet residential courtyard, this traditional slate cottage comes with a couple of private parking spaces so you can unpack and then explore Ambleside at your leisure. Carry your self-catering supplies past the external boot room – a handy space for cleaning muddy bikes, boots and furry friends – and through the side door into the kitchen. Beyond, the lounge/diner features comfortable soft seating arranged before a Smart TV and a wood burner, plus a dining suite with elbow space for all. A ground-floor cloakroom ensures convenience and complements the shower room. When you’re ready to retire for the night, head up to the first floor to find a double and a twin bedroom. A further flight of stairs leads to a double bedroom with its own en-suite shower room and stunning views towards the surrounding fells and mountains.

The paved, courtyard-style garden area really showcases the use of slate in Ambleside’s architecture – bistro-style furniture makes this a pleasant spot for al fresco food and drinks.
