About this property
Mount Sol is a comfortable detached bungalow located just 5 minutes’ walk from the centre of Ambleside at the peaceful lower slopes of Wansfell.
Enjoy the beautiful views over Ambleside to Loughrigg and the surrounding fells any time of the year. Sleeping 4 guests, this is the perfect retreat for a small family or ideal for two couple to relax and enjoy all the Lake District has to offer.
Set on one level, you will have everything you need for a comfortable stay in the Lake District. The open plan sitting room with dining area is airy, contemporary and a very sociable space to relax with friends with stunning views from the floor-to-ceiling windows. Take advantage of the well-equipped kitchen and cook some tasty meals to enjoy al fresco in the rear garden area. There are two spacious double bedrooms, one boasting a king-size bed with an additional TV.
Ambleside is a beautiful place to take a break. The village centre is full of independent shops, bars and cafes and there are walks in almost every direction making it the perfect base for a walking holiday too. Just a stroll away from the centre is Waterhead pier where you can enjoy an afternoon on the shores of Lake Windermere from Wateredge Inn, alternatively hop onto a Lake Cruise and explore nearby Windermere and Lakeside.
This is a superb property to explore the heart of the Lakes from, whether you’re looking for a relaxed stay or a jam-packed hiking holiday.
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.
