Set your pet’s tail wagging with a tranquil getaway in this cosy holiday cottage. An ideal base for one or two guests to explore the Lake District with a happy pup by your side, the property boasts a romantic, king-size bedroom, a spa bath and a wood burner for the ultimate in comfort on cooler days.
Follow your hound through the front door and straight into the open-plan lounge/diner, which welcomes you with exposed beams, oak flooring and deep-set windows. In this welcoming space, soft seating is gathered around a wood burner and a Smart TV, while the dining table provides space for meals and holiday planning. The compact kitchen has been thoughtfully designed for self-catering, and includes a fridge, microwave and dishwasher. It’s complemented by an outbuilding that houses a freezer, laundry facilities and a drying cabinet for outdoor clothing. On the first floor (reached via an open-tread staircase) you’ll find a king-size bedroom with a handsome, oak-framed bed – a restful sanctuary with ample storage and a TV. A stylish bathroom with a deep spa bath and a separate shower completes the accommodation. The paved courtyard is an ideal spot for four-pawed pals to enjoy some fresh air as you sip a coffee or a sundowner. Private parking for a small car is available at the front of the cottage.
The charming retreat is set in one of Ambleside's oldest corners, just 350 metres from the village’s high street, where you’ll find galleries, gift shops and places to eat. Within 0.5 miles you can reach the cinema, tennis courts, an indoor climbing wall and mini golf, while Lake Windermere is just 1 mile away, for boat trips and water sports. Walk to Stock Ghyll Force waterfall or the National Trust’s Stagshaw Gardens (both 1 mile) or to Loughrigg Fell (3 miles).
