“The property was exactly what we needed.”

It was very well equipped and so convenient for waking in to Ambleside. The set of yellow walks were great we did three of them. Would definitely return.

“A lovely bungalow in a peaceful location, yet close enough to the town to be accessible on foot.”

Good views of Wansfell from the kitchen. The interior layout is excellent, especially the lounge and kitchen area. Overall a very good base for walking or sightseeing. Plenty of parking space for 2 cars if required.

“The cottage (Greenways) was immaculate and very well equipped/furnished.”

Its location was lovely and quiet, but very close to the amenities of Ambleside and within walking distance of Waterhead on lake Windermere.

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.
