Location

Self-catering in Ambleside is without doubt the best way to stay. As well as immersing yourself in a sought-after Lake District community, you can share in the hustle and bustle of local shops, specialist delis, traditional Lakeland pubs and acclaimed Ambleside restaurants with incredible ease. Combine lazy days in the village with world-class walks right from your doorstep - Ambleside is definitely the hub for walkers and you'll pick up all sorts of walking tips from expert shops or down the pub!

A stroll to Waterhead Pier and you'll catch a steamer to Bowness or Lakeside - a great way to begin a day on foot. For wider exploring in our National Park, navigating from a self-catering base in Ambleside is easy by car or bus. The A591 leads north to Rydal Water, Grasmere, Wordsworth Country and beyond, or south to Windermere and Bowness. The breathtaking Langdale Valley and Coniston are within easy reach too - it's a sublimely versatile base!

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.
