About this property

Malvern is a traditional, three-storey cottage settled in the town of Ambleside, Cumbria.

You can while away summer evenings in your private patio garden with outdoor seating, before catching your rest ready for another day of adventures. The ground floor has a separate utility, whilst upstairs you'll find a shower room, super-king-size zip/link bedroom, and a king-size. Climb the stairs again to find the second-floor king-size and a stylish, contemporary bathroom. The town of Ambleside is a picturesque setting for your Lake District holiday where you can dine at the likes of The Old Stamp House Restaurant, The Glass House - within a beautifully converted saw mill, and Dodds Restaurant, while the local shops provide the self-catering essentials. There are plenty of local attractions and activities to choose from, including Ambleside Roman Fort, Stock Ghyll Force, Ambleside Climbing Wall, and two cinemas, whilst the backdrop of dramatic fells and countryside provide walks from your doorstep. You'll also be a short distance from Waterhead Pier on the shores of Lake Windermere to dine out with lake views and boat cruises, and the town of Windermere offers watersports, Windermere Jetty Museum, and The World of Beatrix Potter. Malvern is a great base for touring the Lake District with easy access to Troutbeck Valley and dramatic Kirkstone Pass, Rydal, Grasmere and the home of William Wordsworth, and plenty of outdoor adventures at Coniston Water, Grizedale Forest, and popular hikes up Scafell Pike. Discover the delights of the Lake District with a stay at Malvern.

Ambleside is a great location for exploring the central Lakes, with Grasmere and Langdale Valley just a short drive away. There are cruises, boat rides, and watersports on Lake Windermere, plus stores, restaurants, and pubs in the village. On the lakeside in Waterhead, the parkland offers excellent lake views and a short beach, while a walk in the other way brings you to Stock Ghyll Force waterfall. Along with the Lake and fantastic walking, Ambleside is notable for its yearly rushbearing ceremony and the 17th-century "Bridge House," now the National Trust Information Centre.
