A delightful Lakeland hideaway for couples and small families, this lovely cottage benefits from a superb setting in Ambleside. Sleeping three guests, the two-bedroom retreat is within 150 metres of an array of shops, cafes, restaurants and pubs. It is also well located for those wishing to head out across the Lake District National Park to explore the magnificent landscape and discover incredible beauty spots. Keen climbers may wish to tackle Wansfell Pike, 1.5 miles away, and Loughrigg Fell, 2.5 miles away. Walk less than 1 mile down to Waterhead to find yourselves on the shores of beautiful Windermere. Here you can also board a cruise out onto the water. Disembark at Lakeside, at the northern tip of Windermere, or at Bowness in the middle. Plan a trip to Ullswater, 8.5 miles away, with its lakeside walks and steamboat cruises. Keswick and Derwentwater are a scenic 16.5-mile drive from the cottage.
Arrive at the cottage and park right outside the door. Make your way into the open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner to find a modern space that has been equipped with everything you are likely to need during your stay. Make a cup of tea in the chic kitchen area then enjoy it up at the breakfast bar with a slice of Grasmere gingerbread. Conjure up hearty feasts here too, then set the table and dine in style. While away your evenings together in front of the TV as the open fire crackles in the background. Listen to music through the Sonos sound system. When you are ready to retire for the night, climb the stairs, which have a glass balustrade, up to the first floor of the cottage. Here you have a spacious super-king-size bedroom, with ample storage and its own TV. The cosy single bedroom and the family shower room are also up here.
Head out to the small secluded courtyard garden on sunny days to relax. Chat out here as the sun sets on summer nights too. There is parking for one medium-sized car at the cottage.
