This is a perfect apartment for those wanting to be in the heart of Ambleside; ideal for a couple looking for a cosy retreat whilst having the benefit of walking trails, shops, pubs and a wide choice of restaurants all nearby. Fantastic Lake District walks are easily reached from the apartment, as are all the water sports that the lake has to offer. Ambleside is at the northern end of Lake Windermere, England's longest lake, and is surrounded by rolling fells and offers access to the higher mountain tops. You can find plenty of places along the shores of Lake Windermere to try your hand at windsurfing, paddle boarding or canoeing. Plan a 4-mile walk to Grasmere then stop for a cup of tea and a slice of gingerbread before heading home.
This contemporary home-from-home is approached up a steep access drive, to a level patio area where you can enjoy views across the rooftops to the fells. On entry, notice the welcoming decor and airy rooms thanks to the large windows framing delightful Lake District views. Walk up the stairs and into the open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner – the social heart of the home. After days of adventure, unwind in the lounge space, lighting the open fire, flicking on the Smart TV, and relaxing in the cosy seating. When stomachs start to rumble, lay the wooden table nearby and head to the well-appointed kitchen at the back of the room. Find all you need in this stylish space to whip up memorable holiday meals, perhaps using the local ingredients you sourced earlier in the day. After a peaceful evening together, walk through to the attractive double bedroom with chic decor and more tranquil views of the surrounding countryside. In the morning, enjoy a rejuvenating soak in the well-appointed bathroom that completes the interior.
Outside and up some stairs, take a moment to relax, perhaps with a morning brew, in the shared garden and patio area. With outdoor furniture provided, this is a splendid spot for an al fresco evening meal.
