This stylish holiday apartment in Ableside puts couples and solo travellers in the perfect position to discover the very best of the Lake District National Park. Start your exploration right from your doorstep, strolling along renowned routes like Loughrigg Fell and Wansfell, tracing the river Rothay through the valley, or wandering the lake shore paths by Rydal Water and Grasmere. Return to Ambleside village, buzzing with year-round activity, from local bars and cafes to bustling restaurants. Its charming shops, welcoming pubs, and cinemas make it a top Lake District destination. You'll also find an abundance of activities nearby, including boat trips and thrilling water sports on Lake Windermere itself (1 mile).

Step into this characterful ground-floor apartment and follow the stone porch into a welcoming hallway that leads through to a bright, open-plan living area. Here, a multi-fuel wood burner creates a focal point, with a sofa and armchairs gathered around for laid-back evenings. By the bay window, the dining area sets the scene for candlelit suppers prepared in the well-equipped kitchen. Tall period windows open onto a small balcony with chairs and rooftop views stretching towards Loughrigg Fell. When night falls, retreat to the tranquil bedroom, home to a sumptuous king-size bed. The en-suite bathroom includes a bath with a shower over for a relaxing soak at the end of the day. A useful drying room sits at the end of the hallway – handy after days out on the fells.

Outside, the balcony is just the spot for a morning coffee or an evening drink as the light fades. A designated parking space for one car is provided, along with an electric vehicle charging point.

Koru is a warm, comfortable and spacious property. Great location close to Ambleside's shops and restaurants, and an easy walk from the bus stop if arriving by public transport.

Our third year at Koru. It suits us perfectly: spacious, comfortable, well-located. A good choice for a couple wanting a central location for a Lakeland holiday.

Really lovely, cozy cottage, 5 mins walk from the town centre. Our third stay here and the cottage never disappoints.

Koru is a lovely apartment that met our expectations perfectly. It was lovely and clean and very comfortable. We loved the little balcony accessed from the dining area which caught the sun all afternoon and evening. Our Airedale enjoyed sitting on it and sniffing the air. Considering how close to the towns amenities Koru is, it is lovely and peacefRead moreul. We will hopefully be back again soon. Hide
