If you’re a fan of Beatrix Potter then you must explore the World of Beatrix Potter attraction in Bowness or visit Hill Top, her former 17th century farmhouse which is now a National Trust owned property. Explore the woods at Orrest Head where you will discover unrivalled views of the lakes that are so breath-taking, they inspired British author Alfred Wainwright to move to Cumbria in order to spend his life wandering the fells. For a memorable holiday celebrating time your nearest and dearest, consider Chapelside Cottage for your next Lake District escape.

Lying at the northern tip of Lake Windermere, England’s largest lake, Ambleside makes a superb base for touring the central Lakes, with Grasmere and the Langdale Valley just a short drive away. There is plenty to do here - cruises, boat trips and watersports on Lake Windermere itself and numerous shops, restaurants and pubs in the village to suit all tastes. On the lakeside at Waterhead, the parkland offers lovely views down the lake and a short stretch of beach, whilst a walk in the other direction, following Stock Ghyll through woodland, will bring you to the entrancing waterfall of Stock Ghyll Force. Along with the Lake and the great walking on offer, Ambleside is also famous for its annual rushbearing ceremony and the diminutive 17th century “Bridge House” - one of the most photographed buildings in the Lake District and now the National Trust Information Centre.
