About this property

Ambleside Haven is a fine retreat for families or couples who are looking for fun and adventure close to Ambleside village. A short walk will take you to the shores of Lake Windermere and the surrounding area - which is great for hikers. The property is a smart and stylish ground floor apartment, with two bedrooms set over one floor. Cosy and comfortable, Ambleside Haven is the perfect place to relax and unwind.

Set in lovely gardens, with a delightful patio area, a great spot to enjoy a morning coffee or an aperitif. The property is conveniently situated in a sleepy location just a short stroll from shops and restaurants in the village centre. Waterhead Pier at the north of Lake Windermere is close by and here you can catch a steamer to Bowness and Lakeside and more attractions.

For those who enjoy the great outdoors, an array of walks start at Ambleside, including walks along the shores of Rydal Water and Grasmere, whilost the hike up Loughrigg Fell is ever popular. For those who enjoy more of a challenge the high fells of the Fairfield Horseshoe can be tackled directly from your door.

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.

    Only problem was that iit was cold on arrival and took a while to heat up. I would have liked more info about refuse/recycling and TV etc.

    Having traveled for almost 6 hours, we arrived to collect our keys just before 1am and proceeded to the lock box as always. However, our keys were not there!! Fortunately, someone answered the helpline number and we had our keys within 20 mins. The apartment was as lovely as ever and we had a lovely holiday after the initial panic.

    We thoroughly enjoyed our stay & will definitely be back. Secure parking and very quiet area of the town is a bonus too…
