Romney 22

About this property

Resting in the prestigious Romney Grange development, on the edge of Ambleside, this is spacious and delightful apartment, Romney 22. Surrounded by the picturesque landscapes of the Lake District, with views over Lake Windermere and towards the Fairfield Horseshoe, this apartment is a superb base from which to enjoy excellent fell walking. Be welcomed into the light and airy sitting room, boasting large windows and ample seating for all the gather round and enjoy the company of each other, with a dining table in the corner for mealtimes. Patio doors lead on to the balcony where you can sit out and enjoy the view, accompanied with a glass of wine to round off your evening. Discover the well-equipped kitchen, housing a small breakfast bar and range of appliances such as an electric oven and hob, microwave and fridge/freezer – sure to inspire some home-cooking of any kind. As the evening draws to a close, pick yourself and retire to the inviting master bedroom with a double bed with built-in wardrobes, along with a convenient en-suite shower room. The second bedroom is also a double, making this the ultimate setting for a couple's getaway to the Lake District. To the exterior, guests are welcome to enjoy the two acres of the landscaped terrace grounds, shared with other residents of the complex, and comprised of stepped paths up to the higher levels where panoramic views of the Lake and fells can be enjoyed. A gentle stroll into Ambleside will bring you to a variety of independent shops and a small market selling local goods, plus a wealth of cafés, pubs and restaurants to choose from – ideal if you fancy a night off cooking. Walkers can embark on a number of adventures in the area – see the imposing waterfall of Stock Ghyll Force as you climb on a stunning hike to the peak of Wansfell Pike, before descending back into the centre of town for a delicious ice-cream of well-deserved drink from the pub. Take a tour of the impressive 19th century National Trust owned Wray Castle, or visit the neighbouring village of Rydal to learn of the life of the famous William Wordsworth, at his former home Rydal Mount & Gardens and the museum of Wordsworth Grasmere. Day trips to Coniston and Keswick can be found further afield, offering plenty of opportunity to make the most of this central Lakeland location. At the end of each fun-filled day, return to Romney 22 for an evening of relaxation and rejuvenation.

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.
