Spectacular Lakeland walks await from this single-level hideaway in a charming residential part of Ambleside. Sleeping four humans and one canine, it’s ideal for a family who want to discover the region’s inspiring landscapes while still being close to shops and restaurants. Whether you’re keen to seek out Windermere trails with your pup or just want to get some fresh air in the fully enclosed garden, this is the place to find outdoor fun and relaxation.
Inside, the bright and inviting open-plan living space is the hub of the house, where you can gather to unwind and share mealtimes together. Dish up your ravenous canine’s dinner in the kitchen, then prepare a tasty meal for everyone else using the premium appliances. The airy lounge area is well-lit, with floor-to-ceiling windows allowing natural light to stream in. When you want to get cosy, adjust the electric blinds and snuggle up on the plush seating. Watch a film on the Smart TV or listen to soothing music on the Bose speaker, with your contented canine by your side. With both bedrooms being on the ground level too, you can stay reassuringly close to your pet overnight to help them feel settled.
The 2-mile woodland walk from Ambleside town centre to Stock Ghyll Force waterfall is sure to set tails wagging. Just be aware that it can get very busy at peak times, so it’s better to head there first thing in the morning or late afternoon if you’d rather avoid the crowds. From Ambleside’s Waterhead Pier (2.5 miles), skip aboard one of the Lake Windermere cruise boats for a trip to Bowness or Wray Castle (5 miles). With a top ‘pawprint rating’ from the National Trust, you can expect a great dog-friendly experience at Wray.
