About this property

Between the villages of Ambleside and Windermere is the delightful village of Troutbeck, home to this first-floor apartment, which is part of a detached farmhouse.

This first-floor apartment has all that you would need for an enjoyable stay in the heart of the Lakes and on a reasonable budget. It is just as suitable for families looking to take in the sights as couples wanting a quick romantic break.

Across the one-floor apartment, you will find that this property caters to all needs. An equipped kitchen for preparing meals and a spacious sitting room/dining area that is perfect for relaxing, with a Freeview TV and plenty of books in the library to enjoy. For sleeping, guests will find a very comfortable double bedroom and a twin bedroom. For a relaxing way to end the day, why not take a seat in the property's large bay window and relax with a good book, or simply take in the outstanding views offered by the local area.

Outside, there is a shared garden area that is fully lawned with garden furniture, perfect for relaxing and enjoying a glass of wine.

Troutbeck has enough to offer nearby for those looking for a rural retreat. A short walk will take you to the Post Office and general store, and you can enjoy a drink in The Mortal Man Inn. Troutbeck's unique position means that it also offers stunning and immersive views of the surrounding fells.

The property's prime location means that just three miles in either direction will take you to the villages of Ambleside and Windermere. There you can enjoy a taste of village life and visit tea rooms, pubs and small shops in the area, or enjoy a steam cruise on Lake Windermere. A short drive will also take you to the beautiful Kirkstone Pass.

This superb apartment and its delightful location mean that this is one of the best spots for families and couples exploring this outstanding slice of Great Britain.

The small Lakeland village of Troutbeck can be found between its more famous neighbours Windermere and Ambleside, close to Kirkstone Pass. Close by, the bustling towns of Windermere and Ambleside are popular with visitors, providing a range of amenities to suit all tastes. Lake Windermere offers boat trips, including the lakeside ferry to the Lakeside Aquarium and Grizedale Forest Park. The ‘Windermere Steamboat Museum’ displays a fascinating collection of boats whilst children will enjoy the ‘World of Beatrix Potter’ in Bowness, where technology brings her characters to life. Within easy reach of destinations such as Coniston Water, Kendal, Keswick and the Lakeland Mountains, Troutbeck is ideally situated for exploring all that the region has to offer.

  • Anne

    Isolated and exciting position with beautiful views of Windermere. Kitchen and bathroom could do with updating a little, but it didn't take away anything from our enjoyment, staying over the New Year with a dog.

  • Jonathan

    Would not recommend.

  • Susan

    The accommodation was very comfortable, spacious and clean, and in a quiet and peaceful location. We enjoyed the walk to Ambleside direct from the house along a well defined path through the woods.
