Enjoy tail-wagging walks from the doorstep of this chic retreat. Boasting a fabulous open-plan social space plus two en-suite bedrooms, it’s a great base for any pet-loving party of four. Ample parking allows you to explore Ambleside and its surrounds at your own pace.
Sitting in a quiet spot on the outskirts of Ambleside, this high-end home serves up some droolsome mountain views – park and pause to lap them up before stepping into the hall where there’s room to store doggie gear and outdoor clothing. The open-plan social space sets the scene for companionable down-time. A cool colour palette showcases super-cool sofas arranged before a Smart TV, while the picture window will whet your appetite for walks in the surrounding countryside. Cook, dine and unwind in supreme comfort; a nook off the lounge has bi-fold doors that effortlessly extend this living space onto the patio. Once pup has had his fill of fresh air and exercise, settle him in his bed then choose your own – two blissful bedrooms are also off the lounge. Awake to scenic fell views from the twin, which has an en-suite shower room, or enjoy lazy mornings in front of the Smart TV in the king-size bedroom, which has an en-suite bathroom. The property is in an elevated position – enjoy fresh air, food, drinks and far-reaching views from the slate patio.
Sniff out Ambleside’s dog-friendly shops, inns and eateries close-by, and let your pet sniff out the woodland path that leads to the spectacular Stock Ghyll Force waterfall. A mile away, dogs are welcome on many of Windermere’s lake cruises and leisure boats – you’ll get great views of this mighty water from the National Trust's Stagshaw Garden (1.5 miles). For a more challenging hike climb the steep slopes of Wansfell Pike (2 miles) or tackle Helvellyn’s thrilling Striding Edge from Glenridding (9 miles).
