Retaining its traditional character as part of a 17thC gentleman’s residence, this elegant Lodge Cottage provides sophisticated living space and true relaxation with far-reaching views over the village to the Lakeland Fells.
Entrance porch, spacious hall, fitted-out ‘boot room’ and ground floor shower room / WC. Well equipped ‘farmhouse’ kitchen with large dining table. Bright and spacious lounge, with elegant oak beams, relaxing furniture and wood-burner fireplace, leads to the conservatory and twin bedroom on the ground floor with access to the private patio. Upstairs is the spacious master bedroom, panoramic window and luxury en-suite with double-ended bath. The second cosy, kingsize bedroom with contemporary shower room. Ambleside is a contemporary, characterful Lakeland village with a spectacular backdrop of Lake District fells. Ideal for walking, cycling or boating activities, it is also a lovely spot for contemporary shops, leisurely lake cruises, award-winning Lake District restaurants and cosy traditional pubs. There are 2 cinemas, a Jazz bar and the Lake Cruises leave regularly from Waterhead, a great way to explore without driving. The tiny ‘Bridge House’ is one of the most photographed places here, sat on a bridge in the middle of the village. There is also the remains of a Roman fort, Galava. One of William Wordsworth’s former family homes can be visited nearby at Rydal Mount & Gardens. His Grasmere home, Dove Cottage, is also worth a visit and only a short drive away on the scenic A591. You can also head over the equally scenic Kirkstone Pass to the beautiful Ullswater Valley.
