  • A light and charming two-bedroom ground-floor apartment in a beautiful part of Ambleside
  • Offering fresh and cosy accommodation for couples and smaller families exploring Windermere
  • Featuring a spacious open-plan living area and delightful shared gardens with gorgeous views

Property code: OC-LR015

Set on the quieter edge of Ambleside, this ground-floor apartment sits within a small collection of holiday properties and is well-suited to up to four guests travelling with a four-legged friend in tow. With lakeside trails, fell paths, and woodland walks all close by, it’s a handy base for exploring the Lake District with a trail-loving pup.

Inside, the apartment has a contemporary feel. The open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner is filled with natural light from full-height windows looking out towards shared gardens, creating a warm welcome after a day on the fells. Colourful seating surrounds a Smart TV, while the dining table provides a sociable spot for meals prepared in the well-equipped kitchen. There are two restful bedrooms finished in calming tones – a double and a twin – alongside a sleek shower room, all designed for a good night’s rest after long walks, wet paws and muddy boots. Outside, a private patio offers a pleasant place for a morning coffee while your canine explorer stretches out nearby, with shared gardens beyond looking towards the surrounding fells and offering plenty of room for a game of fetch. Private parking for one car is provided.

Ambleside itself is less than a mile on foot, bringing together independent places to eat and drink alongside local landmarks such as Stock Ghyll Force, an ideal destination for your morning walkies. The shores of Lake Windermere are within a couple of miles, with steam cruises running towards Lakeside, while nearby routes lead up onto Wansfell and Loughrigg Fell, both popular with hikers and their energetic hounds alike.

Very clean and comfortable flat. Equipped with everything we needed in a great location. Very quiet and parking was a real bonus. Ambleside was fantastic with plenty of lovely places to eat and had a good selection of shops. Beautiful scenery and lovely walks for the dog and humans.

The accommodation was absolutely outstanding, perfectly located just moments from Ambleside town while still offering easy access to a wide range of beautiful walks and scenic trails. It struck the ideal balance between convenience and tranquility. Everything was spotlessly clean and incredibly well presented thought out. There was an abundance ofRead more fresh bedding and towels, and the kitchen was fully equipped with everything a family could possibly need. It truly felt like a home away from home, making our stay comfortable, relaxing, and completely hassle free. We are all looking forward to our next visit Hide

Ideally located just a 5 min walk from the centre of Ambleside, but tucked away in a quiet residential corner, this was a perfect stay for our family of 4.

We are already thinking of coming back next year to climb the hills we didn't manage! Hide

Excellent location, quiet yet within walking distance from the centre of Ambleside. Lots of amazing walks from the flat (comprehensive info and maps kindly provided by the owners). The flat itself was immaculate and very comfortable with everything needed for a great stay. Would not hesitate to go back.

The apartment is light and airy, but still homely and relaxing. The beds are comfy with lovely touches of textiles, this continues into the living area too. The kitchen was well kitted out with plenty of utendils, cutlery, pots and pans etc There was plenty of space for all our food in the cupboards. The bathroom was lovely, clean and modern with fRead moreluffy towels, great shower and nice to have heated towel rail. The location is brilliant for getting straight out and walking the beautiful hills around ambleside, eith no need to even go on the roads. Itsin a peaceful location, but yet is still minutes walk into the heart of ambleside, so great for dog walking and eating out alike. There were lots of lovely tpuches in the apartment which made it feel personal but still welcoming, such as the books amd games to use whilst staying. All in all a fabulous place, will definately stay again and highly reccomend. Hide
