2 Bed Apartment in Ambleside

About this property

This holiday apartment in Ambleside makes a brilliant base for friends or family within the spectacular Lake District National Park. 1 mile from Ambleside, Waterhead marks the top of Lake Windermere, where you can kayak, paddleboard, or hop aboard a cruiser to admire the peaks from the water. Loughrigg Fell (2 miles) is a great introduction to fell walking. For a bigger challenge, set off 3 miles from Ambleside to tackle the sweeping ridgeline of the Fairfield Horseshoe. Closer to home, Stock Ghyll Force (0.5 miles) offers a quick but atmospheric woodland walk to a dramatic 70-foot cascade. Literature enthusiasts can venture 4 miles to Dove Cottage in Grasmere, stepping into the former home of William Wordsworth. Bowness-on-Windermere (5 miles) brings bustling cafes and lakefront attractions, while Coniston (8 miles) is a quieter setting to explore.

Inside, the bright open-plan living area is bathed in natural light, with pops of colour from mid-century styling, creating a warm welcome after a day roaming the landscape. Expansive windows and a private balcony frame a panorama of the fells, keeping the scenery front and centre throughout your stay. Comfortable seating is arranged around a Smart TV for easy evenings in, while the dining table for four sits perfectly positioned for long, leisurely meals with that unforgettable backdrop. The fully equipped kitchen includes modern appliances, making it simple to prepare anything from hearty breakfasts to relaxed suppers. There are two light and airy bedrooms, each a restful haven for a good night's sleep. The master bedroom includes a double bed and an en-suite with a walk-in shower. The second bedroom boasts a super-king bed, which can be arranged as twins on request. A contemporary family bathroom with a bath and overhead shower completes the interior.

Outside, the private balcony provides a wonderful vantage point for morning coffee or sunset drinks overlooking the fells. Well-kept communal gardens offer additional outdoor areas to sit and take in the surroundings, and private parking is available for added ease.
