    “This was our fourth stay at Holmdale.”

    We like everything about the cottage - the convenient location, lovely views, excellent kitchen facilities, and tasteful decor. The new bathrooms and sofas make it even more luxurious and comfortable.

The property

Holmdale is in a superb location in the much sought after village of Grasmere, set in a quiet spot on the edge of the village yet with only a couple of minutes' walk to the amenities. The cottage, set over three floors, has been lovingly furnished and finished in a classic, contemporary style with neutral colours, and a host of excellent facilities which, combined with superb views, is sure to make Holmdale a winner with all guests. Grasmere village is one of the most popular in the Lake District, thanks to its picture postcard looks and strong links with William Wordsworth. High- and low-level walks are plentiful, along with boating and fishing on Grasmere Lake. The village offers some interesting shops and a variety of places to eat. Accommodation: Door into ground floor cloakroom, with storage space for outdoor wear, leading into the well-equipped kitchen/diner, with under floor heating and beautiful views of the nearby fells from the kitchen window. The dining area is home to a wood burner/multi fuel stove. Through into the comfortable lounge, with smart TV, Blu-ray DVD player, Wi-Fi and wood burner/multi-fuel stove and off the lounge a delightful conservatory with comfortable settee, displaying views over nearby fields and mountains. On the first floor a light and spacious master king bedroom and two recently refurbished modern bathrooms – one with large walk-in shower, and WC, one with bath, walk-in shower, sink, WC and underfloor heating. On the second floor is another spacious king bedroom to the rear of the property and a pretty twin bedroom to the front with a zip link bed (can be superking on request). All rooms have beautiful views of the surrounding fells. The property is decorated in stylish neutral tones with complementing fabrics and furnishings. Flooring is mostly tiled and wood downstairs with plush carpet on the stairs and in the bedrooms. Gas central heating along with the multi-fuel stoves will ensure Holmdale is warm and cosy whatever the weather. Outside: Private parking for one car immediately to the front of the property with additional on street parking available close-by. A garden and patio area with table and chairs is located just to the side of the conservatory, ideal for enjoying an aperitif and views of the nearby fells at the end of the day. Two- or three-minute walk to village centre for shopping and eating out.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £200.

About the location

AMBLESIDE

Grasmere 4.4 miles; Windermere 4.7 miles; Keswick 16.7 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.

Note: Additional parking can be found at the centre of the village on a first-come, first-serve basis
Please Note: A £200 Good Housekeeping Bond is applicable upon booking
