1 bedroom accommodation in Ambleside

A characterful 15th century Ambleside cottage with a wood-burning stove, roll top bath and private parking, ideal for couples wanting village life and walks from the door.. Dating back to the 15th century, this characterful cottage is one of Ambleside’s older properties and offers a cosy base at the foot of Kirkstone Pass. With village shops and places to eat within walking distance, it is easy to arrive, park up and explore on foot. There are also rewarding walks from the door, including a route to Stock Ghyll Force for an easy scenic outing.

Inside, the cottage blends historic charm with modern comfort. The lounge has a slate effect floor and a wood-burning stove as a warming focal point, ideal for relaxed evenings in front of the TV.

The dining kitchen is compact but well-equipped for two, with everything you need for simple meals, and the bathroom offers both a roll top bath and a separate shower cubicle, perfect after a day outdoors.

Stairs lead up from the lounge to the double bedroom, which looks out towards a famous local bridge landmark and is attractively furnished for a restful night’s sleep. Bed linen and towels are included, and there is private parking for one car, a real bonus in Ambleside. With its central position and traditional feel, it is an inviting retreat for couples planning a classic Lake District break.
