“Lovely stay in a spacious property which included all needed facilities.”
Beds were very comfortable and bathrooms and living area had lots of room. Oven was problematic as the shelves do not fit properly and therefore cannot be easily moved about. Cleanliness was acceptable but did not feel as though a deep clean had taken place whilst shut down (carpets in need of a deep clean, cobwebs in kitchen). Ideally located for walks both from the doorstep and slightly further afield. Parking, although providing two end to end spaces, was very narrow.
The property
This spacious apartment on two floors has been completely renovated and given the stylish, modern and comfortable feel that proves to be so popular with our many guests. Ghyll View will be ideal for those looking for a good location with ample opportunities for walking and touring in the heart of the lakes. As with all our other properties at The Falls the village centre is just a short stroll away down Peggy Hill where you will find individual shops for all your holiday needs and a wide range of places to eat with something for every taste and pocket.
Accommodation: The property is entered via a few steps along a covered balcony. You have plenty of hanging space just inside the front door before stepping through into the spacious sitting /dining room (flat screen smart TV with basic sky package, wi-fi, dvd, ipod dock ). Full height glass doors open onto a small balcony with bistro set. The kitchen is fully fitted with integrated equipment. Stairs from the hall lead down to the three bedrooms. The master has a king sized double and en-suite walk-in shower, basin and wc. The second bedroom is double and there is a further good sized twin. The modern family bathroom has bath with shower over, basin and wc.
The owners have created their dream holiday home with ample space for all the family or for couples wishing to stay together with excellent facilities including plenty of home comforts, gas central heating and fitted carpets.
Outside: Parking for two cars in named spaces (other ad hoc. visitor parking available). Short easy downhill walk to the village centre for shops, eating out and entertainment. Many walks and rambles from the door and a walk to Lake Windermere for lake cruises.

About the location
AMBLESIDE
Windermere 4 miles; Grasmere 4 mile; Keswick 15 miles.
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.
