Kingfisher Cottage

About this property

A truly romantic experience awaits you at Kingfisher Cottage, in a spectacular waterfall setting with a high level of quality & luxury throughout. Spacious yet cosy and set across three levels, it sits high above the beck, nestling into the side of Stockghyll Gorge with the water cascading over the rocks below with woodland on the opposite bank. With private balcony and courtyard garden you can simply sit and marvel over the power of the water below. Set within a select, beautifully renovated Bobbin Mill development on the edge of Ambleside village, it is within easy reach of cafes, shops, restaurants, pubs, cinemas, the lake and many walks from the doorstep.

Ambleside is on the northern shore of Lake Windermere with Lake Cruises from nearby Waterhead Pier, and is full of shops, cafes, delis and restaurants. There’s even a jazz bar and cinema. The whole area is full of cosy traditional pubs all competing to serve the best Lakeland ale. The fells around the area are just beautiful and you could easily ditch the car and spend your break here on foot or boat!

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.
