With Ambleside on its doorstep and being located opposite to the popular Hayes Garden World, this Lakeland hideaway is ideally situated for guests looking for the perfect base for their holiday. Ambleside is surrounded by stunning countryside and is only a short drive from the neighbouring villages of Grasmere and Windermere. This vibrant location offers a wide range of interesting shops, choice of tempting tea-rooms and restaurants in addition to two cinemas and fine, welcoming pubs serving beers from local breweries. What more could you wish for?

Loughrigg Hide is arranged on first and second floors, making the most of the surrounding views. The first floor features an open plan sitting room with dining area, is comfortably furnished with large TV and welcoming log effect fire. A surprisingly cosy room providing lovely views. The sitting room opens to a modern, stylish and well-equipped kitchen with everything needed to serve up a hearty meal or midday snack.

Two attractive double bedrooms can be found on the second floor, each with lovely views and super comfortable beds. The bathroom is bright and modern, with a power shower over the bath.

Within walking distance is Waterhead Pier. Windermere Lake Cruises depart regularly throughout the day, along with steamers and smaller boats that travel the full length of the lake. The local ducks and geese are always there to greet guests, especially those who come bearing gifts.

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.
