About this property

 Candleberry Cottage is a very special & spacious 4 bedroom character cottage is part of an elegantly converted Grade II listed chapel, in Ambleside's historic conservation area. Luxurious bedrooms have their original arched church windows and dramatic exposed beams. The modern dining kitchen with large table is a great space to get together & socialise. French windows lead from the cosy lounge to the garden, with outdoor furniture, perfect for al-fresco dining.

With 2 upper floors, and 4 bedrooms all with original arched windows & lovely views, the master bedroom is ensuite, a special king-size bedroom on the top floor, and the family bathroom, it’s a comfortable and unusual place to spend your holiday.

You are just a few minutes walk,you'll find the delights of Ambleside and Lake Windermere. Ambleside. a contemporary, characterful Lakeland village with a spectacular backdrop of Lake District fells. Ideal for walking, cycling or boating activities, its also a lovely spot for contemporary shops, leisurely lake cruises, acclaimed Lake District restaurants and cosy traditional pubs. There are 2 cinemas, a Jazz bar and the Lake Cruises leave regularly from Waterhead, a great way to explore without driving. The tiny 'Bridge House' is one of the most photographed places here, sat on a bridge in the middle of the village. Oh, and don’t forget our Roman fort, Galava. One of William Wordsworth's former family homes can be visited nearby at Rydal Mount & Gardens. His Grasmere home, Dove Cottage, is also open to the public and only a short drive away on the scenic A591.

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.

    The location was great and we managed with the parking. The accommodation was lovely and clean and we had everything we needed. Would love to go back in the summer when it's not raining as much

  • Linda

    Rooms were lovely and had all the amenities that we needed, including washer/dryer for wet hiking clothes. The cottage was well located within easy walking distance of everything in Ambleside so no need to take out your car for an evening in the pub. Would definitely stay here again.

  • Daniel

    The house was just as described and beautifully clean. Very well located for everything as long as you don't mind the hill back up. If you have more than one car you can get a 7 day pass getting you in lots of different car parks for only £40. The boot and coat rack by the door was great for all our walking gear at the end of the day. The only thing that I would change is the window dressing in the top floor room. It's very thin letting all the light in in the morning leading to some very early waking. Everything else was lovely.
