Escape the everyday at this fabulous cottage set in a slightly elevated position just outside the picturesque village of Ambleside. Sleeping four people across two bedrooms, it's an ideal accommodation option for small families or groups of friends searching for a peaceful retreat to call home while they explore the Lake District together. Spend a lovely day in Grasmere Village (5 miles), where you can pay a visit to the historic Dove Cottage – where the poet William Wordsworth lived from 1799 to 1808. Or grab your hiking boots to climb Loughrigg Fell (4.5 miles) and you'll be rewarded with breathtaking views over Grasmere, Rydal Water and Windermere. Alternatively go wild swimming or fishing for perch and pike at Coniston Water (8 miles). While you're there, check out the Ruskin Museum, where you can learn all about John Ruskin, Donald Campbell and Bluebird, and Arthur Ransome.

From your private parking area (there's room for two cars), step inside your country cottage. Make your way to the bright and cheerful lounge, where you'll find an inviting space overflowing with traditional charm and boutique-style comfort. When it's time to eat, head to the sleek and stylish kitchen/diner to rustle up your favourite meal. Share a casual dinner at the chic dining table and then retire to the lounge to relax in front of the Smart TV. At the end of the day, head upstairs and you'll find two stylish bedrooms – a king-size and a double. A smart family bathroom with a bath and shower completes the layout.

Step outside and you’ll find a fully enclosed patio garden framed by traditional drystone walls. Dine alfresco while taking in the glorious fell views. If you're yearning for a little quiet time, disappear to the outside office space with a good book.

Lovely clean and well maintained property. Well positioned just outside the village centre. We've stayed in the property numerous times.

Fisherbeck was in the perfect location with easy access to Ambleside and the Lakes. The cottage had everything needed for a comfortable family holiday.

Overall we had a very comfortable stay at Fisherbeck. It's the middle property of 3 but is very quiet, as is the area. It is in a very good location about 5-8 min from the town centre, the walk back is up a small hill, but it's in the Lake District so no surprises there. The footpath to Wansfell is at the end of the street and you can access StocklRead moreey Ghyll waterfall via this. The kitchen is well equipped. The beds are comfortable. The pillows a bit less so, if pernickety you might want to take one of your own. The outside safety light seemed to have a mind of its own coming on randomly in the day and night. There's a small non secure porch to hang wet things up. There is a small seating area at the front with a table and chairs, which catches the sun in the afternoon and has views of Loughrigg. There are seats at the back which get the sun earlier in the day. The hot water worked fine with a large bath and separate shower. There are walking books including a full set of Wainright guides. There is a dvd player. The description stated there was a bluetooth speaker but it was not present so take one of your own. The lounge seating was comfortable. The staff were helpful and responsive to any queries. I'd happily stay there again or recommend it to friends. Hide
